If it is to fix the equipment, I would suggest using
a 27C16 and make
the necessary pin adjustments in a homemade carrier ( two 24 pin
sockets plugged into each other with the necessary pinout adjustments,
i.e. unnecessary address pins tied to ground, etc... ). Looks like a
standard JEDEC pinout.
Can one operate a 2716 with +10 volts for Vcc? The datasheet seems
to say that the limit for Vcc on the Inmos part is +11v/(10v
nominal).
This is really odd as I was cleaning out some stuff the other day and
I came across three big 3-ring binders from about 1990 titled "The
Modern IC Databook" from WEKA. It was a subscription service where
updates would be sent out monthly and you'd go through the hell of
"Remove page A-324 and substitute pages A-324 and A324a..."
Included was a service for reseraching unknown ICs--just give them a
call and get a FAX a few days later.
At any rate, I was leafing through the "Memory" section and came
across the aforementioned CMOS EPROMs. My reaction was "Why, in
1991, would anyone even care about such antiquated parts?" I guess
Will answered that one.
