Channel select memory
Abstract
A fully decoded 512-bit (32 x 16) MNOS electrically word alterable, semiconductor memory was developed for use in channel preselect applications to control the frequency in UHF communication systems. It includes address and timing buffers, row decoders, column detectors, and input/output circuitry. Packaged in a standard 28-pin dual inline ceramic package, the memory characteristics are: (1) electrically erasable by word, (2) 100 milliseconds erase and write time, (3) 8 microseconds read time, (4) 2 times 10 to the 11th power read accesses/word between refreshes, (5) unpowered nonvolatile data storage one-year minimum, (6) common data inputs/outputs compatible with 400 series CMOS and 5400 TTL, (7) data outputs high impedance when memory deselected, (8) operating temperature -55 C to -125 C, (9) power supply requirements of 5 volts + or - 5 volt DC and 28 volts + or - 1.5 volts DC at 10 milliamps maximum currents. A small quantity of memories selected from three production lots to demonstrate reproducibility were delivered to AFAL. Prior to shipment, a design and device parameter test program was conducted to verify conformance to the above parameters.
