廬 MCM packaging
technology, the 79C2040 is the first radiation-hardened 20
megabit MCM EEPROM for space application. The 79C2040
uses twenty 1 Megabit high speed CMOS die to yield a 20
megabit product. The 79C2040 is capable of in-system electri-
cal byte and page programmability. It has a 128 word page
programming function to make the erase and write operations
faster. It also features Data Polling and a Ready/Busy signal to
indicate the completion of erase and programming operations.
In the 79C2040, hardware data protection is provided with the
RES pin, in addition to noise protection on the WE signal and
write inhibit on power on and off. Software data protection is
implemented using the JEDEC optional standard algorithm.
