The document describes the features and characteristics of the M28C16 16K (2K x 8) parallel EEPROM, including fast access time, low power consumption, fast write cycle, and data protection.
The M28C16 is a 16K (2K x 8) low power Parallel EEPROM fabricated with SGS-THOMSON proprietary single polysilicon CMOS technology. The device offers fast access time, low power consumption, and requires a single 5V + 10% supply voltage. It supports both hardware and software handshaking for microcontroller interfaces.
Key features include enhanced end-of-write detection via Data Polling or Toggle Bit methods, and support for 64-byte page write operations. The device also offers an optional Software Data Protection (SDP) feature using the standard JEDEC algorithm to inhibit inadvertent write cycles.
