And there's more !

Today I found in the attic a box with about 30 databooks that I've not seen for years. One of them I think is the same NatSemi Memory Data as linked to a couple of posts ago.

I just had a quick look in it, and page 11-82 looks very interesting.

We MK14 owners know two things. (1) SoC cut every corner possible, (2) the PROMs get @***ing HOT !.

It looks like NatSemi had this heating in mind, and suggested a way to reduce it dramatically. That's what's on page 11-82.

Have any of you seen these PROMs in commercial products, did they get this hot in those applications ?
