DATASHEET
X28HC256
256k, 32k x 8-Bit, 5V, Byte Alterable EEPROM
The
X28HC256
is a second generation high performance
CMOS 32k x 8 EEPROM. It is fabricated with Intersil’s
proprietary, textured poly floating gate technology, providing a
highly reliable 5V only nonvolatile memory.
The X28HC256 supports a 128-byte page write operation,
effectively providing a 24µs/byte write cycle, and enabling the
entire memory to be typically rewritten in less than 0.8s. The
X28HC256 also features DATA polling and Toggle bit polling,
two methods of providing early end of write detection. The
X28HC256 also supports the JEDEC standard software data
protection feature for protecting against inadvertent writes
during power-up and power-down.
Endurance for the X28HC256 is specified as a minimum
100,000 write cycles per byte and an inherent data retention
of 100 years.

NOTES:
1. Add “T*” suffix for tape and reel. Please refer to
TB347
for details on reel specifications.
2. Pb-free PDIPs can be used for through hole wave solder processing only. They are not intended for use in Reflow solder processing applications.
3. These Intersil Pb-free plastic packaged products employ special Pb-free material sets, molding compounds/die attach materials, and 100% matte tin
plate plus anneal (e3 termination finish, which is RoHS compliant and compatible with both SnPb and Pb-free soldering operations). Intersil Pb-free
products are MSL classified at Pb-free peak reflow temperatures that meet or exceed the Pb-free requirements of IPC/JEDEC J STD-020.
4. For Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL), please see product information page for
X28HC256.
For more information on MSL, please see tech brief
TB363.

DESCRIPTION
Addresses (A
0
to A
14
) - Address inputs. The address inputs select
an 8-bit memory location during a read or write operation.
Data In/Data Out (I/O
0
to I/O
7
) - Data input/output- Data is
written to or read from the X28HC256 through the I/O pins.
Write Enable (WE) - The Write enable input controls the writing of
data to the X28HC256.
Chip Enable (CE) - The Chip enable input must be LOW to enable
all read/write operations. When CE is HIGH, power consumption is
reduced.
Output Enable (OE) - The output enable input controls the data
output buffers, and is used to initiate read operations.
