EPROM of the Day: ST M27C160

As EPROM capacities increased due to insatiable demand for more storage, die sizes increased rapidly as process shrinks could not keep pace. This is the result.

ST M27C160-150F1

This is a 16Mbit EPROM from ST from around 1995. Today we have Flash, and in the same space can store Gigabytes of data.
