Product details
Overview
AT27C010-70JI from Atmel is a 1-Mbit (128K × 8) one-time programmable EPROM designed for nonvolatile firmware storage in microprocessor systems. It delivers 45 ns read access time, operates from a single 5V ±10% supply, and supports industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C) in a 32-lead PLCC package. Used for boot code and configuration data in embedded controllers.
For engineers reviewing the AT27C010-70JI datasheet, AT27C010-70JI pinout, AT27C010-70JI application, or AT27C010-70JI equivalent, key selection criteria include read speed grade (70 ns), industrial temperature rating, PLCC packaging, OTP reliability, and compatibility with standard 5V bus interfaces.
Technical Context
The AT27C010-70JI implements a CMOS-based OTP EPROM architecture with dual-line control (CE/OE) enabling bus contention avoidance in multi-device systems. Its address space spans A0–A16 (128K locations), with bidirectional data I/O via O0–O7 and dedicated PGM/VPP pins for high-voltage programming.
It features Rapid™ programming at 100 µs/byte with integrated product identification (manufacturer code 0x1E, device code 0x05), 2000V ESD protection, and latchup immunity up to 200 mA. VPP = 13.0V ±0.25V is required during programming; VCC must be applied before and removed after VPP.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Size | 1,048,576-bit (128K × 8) OTP EPROM - stores full boot firmware or configuration tables without refresh or write endurance limits. |
| Read Access Time | 70 ns max - enables direct interface with 10–14 MHz microprocessors without WAIT states. |
| VCC Supply | 5V ±10% - compatible with standard TTL/CMOS logic rails; no auxiliary voltage regulators needed in read mode. |
| Active Current | 35 mA max at 5 MHz - defines power budget for system-level thermal and supply design under sustained read load. |
| Standby Current | 100 µA max - supports low-power sleep modes in battery-backed or energy-sensitive applications. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - validated for industrial environments including factory automation and motor control systems. |
| Programming Voltage | VPP = 13.0V ±0.25V - requires external high-voltage source or programmer support; not used in normal operation. |
Pinout & Package
AT27C010-70JI is packaged in a 32-lead Plastic J-Leaded Chip Carrier (PLCC), JEDEC MS-016 AE compliant, with 1.27 mm pitch and 11.4 mm × 11.4 mm body size. Pin 1 marked by index notch; seating plane defined per JEDEC standard.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A16 | Address Inputs | 17-bit address bus accepting 0–131071; fully decoded internally to select one of 128K bytes. |
| O0–O7 | Data Outputs | 8-bit bidirectional data bus; outputs driven only when CE=VIL and OE=VIL; high-Z otherwise. |
| CE | Chip Enable | Primary device select; deassertion (VIH) places outputs in high-impedance state and reduces ICC to standby level. |
| OE | Output Enable | Secondary output gate; allows shared bus operation - CE selects device, OE controls output driver timing. |
| PGM | Program Strobe | Active-low pulse input (100 µs width) that initiates byte programming when VPP=13V and address valid. |
| VPP | Programming Voltage | 13.0V ±0.25V input required only during programming; must be sequenced after VCC and before removal. |
| NC | No Connect | Pin 14 (PLCC top view) is unconnected - must remain floating; no internal circuitry attached. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rapid™ Programming Algorithm | 100 µs/byte typical programming time with auto-verify loop - reduces production programming cycle time by >5× vs. legacy EPROMs. |
| Integrated Product ID Code | Manufacturer ID (0x1E) and Device ID (0x05) readable via A9/VH and A0 toggle - enables automated programmer validation and BOM traceability. |
| Two-Line Control Architecture | Independent CE and OE inputs - permits flexible bus arbitration schemes, e.g., CE for chip select and OE for timing-critical output gating. |
| High-Reliability CMOS Process | 2000V HBM ESD rating and 200 mA latchup immunity - ensures robustness in handling, assembly, and field operation without external protection. |
| JEDEC-Standard Packaging | 32J PLCC footprint - supports drop-in replacement across Atmel's AT27C010 family and broad third-party socket/PCB compatibility. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar OTP EPROM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AT27C010-70PI | Same 128K×8 OTP EPROM, identical AC/DC specs, but in 32P6 PDIP package instead of PLCC. | Requires through-hole PCB layout and socket; less suitable for high-density surface-mount assemblies. | Select when legacy board reuse, manual prototyping, or socket-based reprogramming is required. |
| AT27C010-70TI | Same core functionality and timing, but housed in 32T TSOP package (8.7 × 13.4 mm) with gull-wing leads. | Enables compact, low-profile placement; better thermal dissipation than PLCC but lower mechanical robustness. | Choose for space-constrained industrial controllers where board area is premium and rework capability is acceptable. |
Compared with AT27C010-70JI, the AT27C010-70PI offers through-hole mounting flexibility at the cost of larger footprint and higher assembly cost, while the AT27C010-70TI trades PLCC's mechanical ruggedness for superior density - all three share identical electrical behavior and programming methodology.

FAQ
What is the maximum read access time specified for the AT27C010-70JI?
The AT27C010-70JI has a maximum read access time (tACC) of 70 ns under industrial temperature conditions (–40°C to +85°C) and 5V ±10% supply. This value is guaranteed across the full operating range and is measured from address valid to valid data output with CE and OE both asserted low.
Does the AT27C010-70JI require a separate programming voltage during normal operation?
No, the AT27C010-70JI requires VPP = 13.0V ±0.25V only during programming; in read mode, it operates from a single 5V ±10% supply. VPP must be applied after VCC and removed before VCC to prevent device damage - no VPP connection is needed for standard read functionality.
Can the AT27C010-70JI be used as a direct replacement for UV-erasable EPROMs like the 27C512?
The AT27C010-70JI is not a pin-compatible or functional replacement for the 27C512 (64K×8), as it differs in density (128K×8), pin count (32 vs. 28), and programming method (one-time vs. UV-erasable). However, it serves the same system role - nonvolatile boot memory - with improved reliability and no quartz window requirement.
What is the purpose of the NC pin on the AT27C010-70JI PLCC package?
Pin 14 on the AT27C010-70JI PLCC package is designated NC (No Connect) and contains no internal connection. It must remain electrically floating - neither tied to VCC nor GND - to avoid unintended coupling or stress on the die. This pin position accommodates package variant compatibility within the AT27C010 family.
How does the Rapid™ Programming Algorithm improve production efficiency for the AT27C010-70JI?
The Rapid™ Programming Algorithm reduces AT27C010-70JI programming time to ~100 µs per byte with built-in verify-and-reprogram loops. This cuts total 128K-byte programming time to under 13 seconds versus minutes for conventional EPROM algorithms, significantly accelerating firmware loading in high-volume manufacturing and reducing programmer throughput bottlenecks.
