DESCRIPTION

The Microchip Technology Inc. 93LC76/86 are 8K and

16K low voltage serial Electrically Erasable PROMs.

The device memory is configured as x8 or x16 bits

depending on the ORG pin setup. Advanced CMOS

technology makes these devices ideal for low power

non-volatile memory applications. These devices also

have a Program Enable (PE) pin to allow the user to

write protect the entire contents of the memory array.

The 93LC76/86 is available in standard 8-pin DIP and

8-pin surface mount SOIC packages.
