Unless you're really cramped for space, why not
create a "custom" chip
carrier? Use one of the SMT packages (vs DIP). Many of the Ramtron
parts are marketed as replacements for RAM+battery so I suspect that
you'd run the same problem with that solution too.
Given that this involves EPROMs, why not spend the $5 or so for a new
one, program it and forget about it? I don't understand that there
would be any sort of positive ROI in this particular application. I
can see the benefit of MRAM or FRAM where the data changes often, but
this doesn't appear to be such an application.
