Product details
Overview
AT27BV1024-15JI from Atmel is a 1-Mbit (64K × 16) one-time programmable EPROM optimized for low-voltage battery-powered systems, featuring 150 ns read access time, dual supply operation (2.7–3.6 V or 4.5–5.5 V), and industrial temperature range (−40°C to +85°C). It delivers TTL-compatible outputs at 3.0 V and supports rapid programming at 100 µs/word.
For engineers reviewing the AT27BV1024-15JI datasheet, AT27BV1024-15JI pinout, AT27BV1024-15JI application, or AT27BV1024-15JI equivalent, key selection criteria include unregulated battery voltage support, JEDEC PLCC-44 pin compatibility with AT27C1024, standby current ≤20 µA at 3.6 V, and integrated product identification code for automated programming.
Technical Context
The AT27BV1024-15JI implements a CMOS OTP EPROM architecture with two-line control (CE/OE), enabling bus contention avoidance in microprocessor-based systems. Its by-16 organization and dual-voltage operation allow direct interface with 16-bit data buses across both regulated and unregulated battery supplies.
It uses Atmel's Rapid™ Programming Algorithm with 100 µs/word pulse width and 13.0 V VPP programming voltage, while maintaining full electrical compatibility with standard 5 V AT27C1024 programming equipment. Product identification is accessed via A9 = 12.0 V and A0 toggling, returning manufacturer code 001Eh and device code 00F1h.

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AT27C1024-15JC | 5 V only (4.5–5.5 V); no low-voltage operation; same 150 ns speed and PLCC-44 package | Requires regulated 5 V supply; unsuitable for battery-only systems | Select when legacy 5 V infrastructure prohibits voltage scaling and industrial temp not required |
| MN63C1024-15 | Same 64K × 16 organization and 150 ns speed; 44-pin PLCC; operates 4.5–5.5 V only; no VPP pin or rapid programming | Lacks integrated ID code and rapid programming; requires longer 10 ms/byte programming | Choose for cost-sensitive 5 V-only applications where programming throughput is secondary |

FAQ
What is the maximum operating voltage for AT27BV1024-15JI during normal read operation?
The AT27BV1024-15JI supports two distinct read supply ranges: 2.7 V to 3.6 V for low-voltage battery operation, and 4.5 V to 5.5 V for standard 5 V systems. Operation outside these ranges - including 3.7–4.4 V - is not specified and may result in unreliable read behavior or excessive current draw. The AT27BV1024-15JI does not support intermediate voltages.
Can AT27BV1024-15JI be programmed using standard AT27C1024 programming equipment?
Yes, the AT27BV1024-15JI is fully programming-compatible with AT27C1024 equipment. It uses identical programming algorithms, pin assignments, and timing (100 µs/word), and returns the same manufacturer (001Eh) and device (00F1h) identification codes. The AT27BV1024-15JI requires VPP = 13.0 V during programming, which most AT27C1024 programmers support via selectable voltage mode.
Does AT27BV1024-15JI require external decoupling capacitors, and if so, what values?
Yes, the AT27BV1024-15JI requires two decoupling capacitors: a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor placed directly between VCC and GND, as close to the device as possible, to suppress switching transients; and a 4.7 µF bulk electrolytic capacitor near the power entry point for arrays of multiple devices. These are mandatory per the datasheet to prevent non-conformance due to voltage excursions during CE transitions.
What is the function of the PGM pin on AT27BV1024-15JI, and when is it active?
The PGM pin on AT27BV1024-15JI is an active-low programming strobe used exclusively during write operations. It must be held low for exactly 95–105 µs while VPP = 13.0 V and CE = VIL to program a single word. During read or standby modes, PGM is ignored - the AT27BV1024-15JI functions identically whether PGM is tied high or left floating.
Is AT27BV1024-15JI pin-compatible with AT27C1024 in the PLCC-44 package?
Yes, the AT27BV1024-15JI in the 44J (PLCC-44) package is JEDEC-pin-compatible with AT27C1024. Pin functions, numbering, and physical dimensions match exactly - including NC assignment on pins 1 and 23 and mandatory connection of both GND pins (20 and 31). This allows direct PCB-level substitution without layout changes.
