Product details
Overview
AT27C1024-45JU from Atmel is a 1,048,576-bit (64K × 16) one-time programmable EPROM optimized for high-speed read access in 16-/32-bit microprocessor systems. It delivers 45ns access time, operates on a single 5V ±10% supply, and supports industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C) in a 44-lead PLCC package.
For engineers reviewing the AT27C1024-45JU datasheet, AT27C1024-45JU pinout, AT27C1024-45JU application, or AT27C1024-45JU equivalent, key selection criteria include fast read timing, CMOS/TTL compatibility, rapid 100µs/word programming, integrated product identification code, and dual-line control (CE/OE) for bus contention avoidance in embedded firmware storage.
Technical Context
The AT27C1024-45JU implements a two-control-line architecture (CE and OE) enabling precise output gating and eliminating bus contention during high-speed system operation. Its x16 data bus organization directly interfaces with 16-bit address/data buses without external multiplexing.
It features rapid programming with 100µs/word typical pulse width at VPP = 13.0V and VCC = 6.5V, followed by verify-reprogram loops per word. Product identification is accessed via A9 = 12.0V and A0 toggling, returning manufacturer (001Eh) and device code (00F1h) words.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar OTP EPROM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AT27C1024-45PU | Same die, 40-lead PDIP package instead of 44J PLCC; identical AC/DC specs and timing | Preferred for through-hole prototyping or legacy wave-soldered boards where PLCC rework is impractical | Select when mechanical mounting or soldering process favors DIP over surface-mount PLCC |
| AM27C1024-45DC | AMD second-source version; same 45ns access, 64K×16 organization, and PLCC-44 package; minor differences in programming voltage tolerance (VPP = 12.5V ±0.5V) | Used in systems requiring multi-source procurement for long-term supply continuity | Choose for BOM diversification where Atmel sourcing risk exists; verify VPP stability margin in target programmer |
Compared with AT27C1024-45PU and AM27C1024-45DC, the AT27C1024-45JU offers identical core functionality but provides superior thermal dissipation and board space efficiency in surface-mount designs, making it optimal for high-density industrial control modules where reflow compatibility and footprint minimization are prioritized.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the AT27C1024-45JU?
The AT27C1024-45JU is rated for industrial temperature operation from –40°C to +85°C. This range is validated per JEDEC standards and applies to both read and standby modes. The device's 200mA latchup immunity and 2000V ESD protection ensure stable operation across this full range without derating. AT27C1024-45JU does not support extended automotive (–40°C to +125°C) or military temperature grades.
Does the AT27C1024-45JU require a separate programming voltage during normal operation?
No. The AT27C1024-45JU requires only a single 5V ±10% supply (VCC) for normal read and standby operation. VPP (13.0V ±0.25V) is needed exclusively during programming and must be applied simultaneously with VCC. During read mode, VPP may be tied to VCC; however, doing so increases standby current slightly. AT27C1024-45JU's design eliminates the need for dual-rail power supplies in deployed systems.
How does the AT27C1024-45JU handle bus contention in multi-device systems?
The AT27C1024-45JU prevents bus contention using independent CE (chip enable) and OE (output enable) controls. CE selects the device, while OE gates the output drivers - allowing multiple devices to share the same data bus without conflict. When OE is high, outputs enter high-impedance state regardless of CE status. This dual-gating architecture is explicitly designed for high-speed shared-bus systems and is confirmed in the AT27C1024-45JU datasheet's operating modes table.
Can the AT27C1024-45JU be used as a direct replacement for the AT27C516 EPROM?
Yes - the AT27C1024-45JU is specified as a direct upgrade from the AT27C516 (512K-bit). It shares identical pinouts in both 40-lead PDIP and 44-lead PLCC packages, uses the same 5V supply and CE/OE control logic, and maintains backward-compatible timing (tACC, tCE, tOE). The primary enhancement is doubled capacity (64K × 16 vs. 32K × 16), enabling seamless firmware expansion without hardware or software changes. AT27C1024-45JU retains all AT27C516 interface behaviors.
What is the purpose of the integrated product identification code in the AT27C1024-45JU?
The AT27C1024-45JU includes an integrated product identification code that returns two 16-bit words: manufacturer ID (001Eh) and device ID (00F1h). Accessed by setting A9 = 12.0V and toggling A0, this feature enables automated programming equipment to validate part authenticity and select correct algorithms/voltages. It supports traceability and anti-counterfeiting in high-reliability applications. The AT27C1024-45JU's ID code is electrically verified and documented in Table 5-8 of its datasheet.
