Replacement EEPROM

May 28, 2010 4 Replies

The TI TBP18SA030 is a 16 pin fusible link PROM.



32 X 8 bits.

Anybody got some suggestions on what I can use for a replacement? The SN74S188 is supposed to be the same, but that doesn't solve my problem.



I'm looking for something along the lines of 27C64 or such. I don't mind making up a 16 -> 28 pin adapter.



Thanks Jeff

it looks like still make it in extended temp rage in a ceramic case as JBP18S030MJ. I wonder who still uses these or what they're fixing with them.

Make me rich and I'll send you the official bipolar PROM bag phone programmer. Are you programming an MCX-90/100? There's also a Standard low-band radio I have buried somewhere that uses this bipolar PROM. You might ask on the Batlabs forum.

I found this in my bag phone programming collection:

Well, just about any PAL with five inputs and eight outputs...

It's for a onesie? Maybe 28F64 would be easier than 27C64 to program... neither is going to be as fast as the TBP18SA030 (about 30 ns, I think).

The Control Signal Corporation (CSC) of Denver, CO used this PROM (U1) in their model CWID-50B and -51B Automatic Station Identifiers with FCC licensed Land Mobile or Amateur Radio Repeaters. The PROM held the Morse Code (CW) message -- typically FCC license callsign.

The original 16-pin TTL PROM (32 x 8) -- TBP18SA030 -- is obsolete (no longer production) and the 1970s programmers are rare to find. You can DIY Build an adapter to allow the usage of the more readily available 27Cxxx / 28Cxxx series EPROMS. The CSC CWID-50B manual walks you through what each bit on the PROM is used for.
