Product details
Overview
AT27C010-45PC from Atmel is a 1-Mbit (128K × 8) one-time programmable EPROM with 45 ns read access time, 5V ±10% supply operation, and JEDEC-standard 32-lead PDIP packaging. It delivers TTL/CMOS-compatible I/O, rapid 100 µs/byte programming, and integrated product identification for automated programming systems - deployed in firmware storage for industrial microcontroller boot loaders.
For engineers reviewing the AT27C010-45PC datasheet, AT27C010-45PC pinout, AT27C010-45PC application, or AT27C010-45PC equivalent, key selection criteria include verified 45 ns tACC timing, VPP = 12.0 V programming voltage, standby current ≤100 µA, and compatibility with standard EPROM programmers supporting Rapid™ algorithm and A9-based ID code readout.
Technical Context
The AT27C010-45PC implements a parallel-addressed OTP EPROM architecture with dual-line control (CE/OE) enabling bus contention avoidance in shared-memory systems. Its internal array is organized as 128K words × 8 bits, accessed via 17 address lines (A0–A16) and 8 bidirectional data outputs (O0–O7).
Programming relies on external VPP = 12.0 V applied to pin 18, with PGM strobe triggering 100 µs pulses under Rapid™ algorithm; product identification uses A9 high-voltage (11.5–12.5 V) and A0 toggling to select manufacturer/device code bytes - both functions validated in read and program modes per AC/DC specs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Size | 1,048,576-bit (128K × 8) OTP EPROM - supports full firmware image storage without refresh or write cycles. |
| Read Access Time | 45 ns max (tACC) - eliminates WAIT states in 5 MHz Z80, 80C51, and 68K-based systems. |
| VCC Supply | 5V ±10% - single-rail operation compatible with legacy 5V logic families and power supplies. |
| Standby Current | 100 µA max (ISB1) - enables low-power hold mode during processor sleep or system idle. |
| Active Current | 35 mA max at 5 MHz (ICC) - defines thermal and PSU sizing requirements for sustained read bursts. |
| VPP Programming Voltage | 12.0 V ±0.5 V (VID) - required on pin 18 during programming; must be applied after VCC and removed before VCC. |
| ESD Protection | 2000 V HBM - ensures robustness during handling and board assembly in non-EPA environments. |
Pinout & Package
AT27C010-45PC is supplied in a 32-lead, 0.600" wide plastic dual inline package (PDIP), JEDEC MS-001 compliant, with 0.100" lead pitch and through-hole mounting. Pin 1 is marked by notch or dot; package height ≤0.220", width 0.630", length 1.670".
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A16 | Address Inputs | 17-bit address bus interface; A0 = LSB, A16 = MSB - selects one of 131,072 bytes. |
| O0–O7 | Data Outputs | 8-bit bidirectional data bus; outputs valid only when CE = OE = VIL and PGM = X. |
| CE | Chip Enable | Primary device select; active-low - disables outputs and reduces current to ISB1/ISB2 when high. |
| OE | Output Enable | Secondary output gate; active-low - allows multiple devices on same data bus with staggered OE timing. |
| PGM | Program Strobe | Active-low pulse input; initiates byte programming when VPP = 12 V and address stable. |
| VPP | Programming Voltage | 12.0 V input pin (pin 18); must be externally supplied during programming - not used in read mode. |
| VCC | Power Supply | +5 V supply (pin 28); powers logic and memory array - requires 0.1 µF ceramic decoupling adjacent to pin. |
| GND | Ground | Reference return (pin 16); must be low-inductance connection to minimize noise coupling into array. |
| NC | No Connect | Pin 24 (PDIP) - internally unconnected; must remain floating or tied to GND per layout best practice. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rapid™ Programming Algorithm | 100 µs/byte typical programming time - reduces production burn-in cycle duration by >90% vs. legacy EPROMs. |
| Integrated Product Identification Code | Manufacturer ID (0x1E) and Device ID (0x05) readable via A9 high-voltage and A0 toggle - enables auto-algorithm selection in gang programmers. |
| Two Power Versions Supported | Differentiates AT27C010 (35 mA active) and AT27C010L (25 mA active); AT27C010-45PC matches the higher-current variant for performance-critical systems. |
| JEDEC-Standard Packaging Options | Same pinout across PDIP (32P6), PLCC (32J), and TSOP (32T) - allows footprint reuse across form factors without redesign. |
| High-Reliability Process | 200 mA latchup immunity and 2000 V HBM ESD rating - qualifies for industrial control and automotive body electronics applications. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar OTP EPROM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AM27C010-45DC | 45 ns tACC, same 128K×8 organization, but AMD-manufactured with 13 V VPP requirement and different ID code format. | Requires updated programmer firmware for ID verification and voltage sequencing; not drop-in in Rapid™-optimized toolchains. | Select when sourcing constraints require AMD-supplied parts or existing AM27C010 infrastructure is in place. |
| MX27C1000PC-45 | 45 ns tACC, identical pinout and VCC/VPP specs, but Macronix uses 12.5 V VPP and has distinct AC timing margins on tDF and tOH. | Valid for read-mode replacement; programming validation required due to differing PGM pulse tolerance (±5% vs. ±10%). | Choose for cost-sensitive industrial builds where second-source qualification is mandated and programming equipment supports dual algorithms. |
Compared with AM27C010-45DC and MX27C1000PC-45, the AT27C010-45PC offers tighter tOH specification (7 ns), guaranteed Rapid™ algorithm support, and native integration with Atmel's ID code protocol - making it preferred for new designs requiring fast, reliable, and toolchain-verified OTP programming.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable VPP voltage for programming the AT27C010-45PC?
The AT27C010-45PC requires VPP = 12.0 V ± 0.5 V during programming, as specified in the DC Programming Characteristics table. Exceeding 12.5 V risks oxide breakdown in the floating-gate cells, while voltages below 11.5 V may cause incomplete programming or verify failures. The AT27C010-45PC must have VPP applied after VCC and removed before VCC to prevent latchup.
Can the AT27C010-45PC be used in place of the AT27C010L-45PC?
No - the AT27C010-45PC and AT27C010L-45PC are distinct power variants. The AT27C010-45PC draws up to 35 mA active current, while the L-version draws only 25 mA. Substituting them without verifying power delivery and thermal design may cause overheating or brownout in low-power systems. The AT27C010-45PC is not a functional drop-in replacement for the L-version.
How is the Integrated Product Identification Code read from the AT27C010-45PC?
The AT27C010-45PC ID code is read by setting A9 to 12.0 V (VIH = 11.5–12.5 V), holding A1–A16 low, and toggling A0: low reads Manufacturer ID (0x1E), high reads Device ID (0x05). This occurs during normal read mode with CE = OE = VIL and VPP = VCC. The AT27C010-45PC supports this function without special programming mode entry.
Does the AT27C010-45PC support partial reprogramming?
No - the AT27C010-45PC is a one-time programmable (OTP) EPROM. Once a memory cell is programmed (charged), it cannot be erased or rewritten. All 128K bytes must be written in a single programming session using the Rapid™ algorithm; partial updates require full reprogramming of the entire device. The AT27C010-45PC has no erase window or UV erasure capability.
What decoupling capacitance is required for stable operation of the AT27C010-45PC?
The AT27C010-45PC requires a 0.1 µF high-frequency ceramic capacitor placed between VCC (pin 28) and GND (pin 16), mounted as close as possible to the device. For boards with multiple AT27C010-45PC units, a 4.7 µF bulk electrolytic capacitor must also be added near the power entry point to suppress array-level supply droop during simultaneous read accesses.
