EEPROM usage.

(1 / 1)


We are phasing out 2804 EEPROMS (512x8) and phasing in 2816 
EEPROMS (2Kx8). The old 2804-450 from XICOR cost $4.50. The 
2816-300 (from SAMSUNG I think) costs $2.25. This should be 
reverse compatable with all old designs, since as far as I 
know all boards were laid out to accept 2816s even though 
we used 2804s. 
So you now have 4 times as much non volatile storage at 
half the price.
Use Atari part number 137399-300.
