Re: [Repeater-Builder]Repeater Controller (new)

2006-11-24 Thread w5zit
The 27C64 is a low power version of the 2764 so it depends on the 
design of your controller as to exactly what will happen if you try to 
substitute the higher power version. They are pin for pin 
interchangeable. Generally the high power version requires more TTL 
drive while it provides more drive on the output. If you have access to 
a UV eraser, why don't you erase the existing 27C64 and reprogram it? 
Digikey has the 27C64 if you think you need to go that way. I erased 
the EPROMs in a Tait 800 and reprogrammed them with the new frequency 
info. Some of the older EPROMs will erase, and you will find that some 
won't erase at all. You just have to give it a try.

I am helping the club bring an repeater back up on air, and I am 
working on
the controller. I am trying to change the callsign in it, I have found 
what
info I need, but my question to the group is- The controller uses a 
27c64
EPROM, and all I have is 2764 types? Can I use the ones I have, or do I 
need
to get the right one? I am new to the EPROM world, so I don't know much
about them.
It goes to show one is never too old to learn a new part of the hobby...

Either *should* work.  You would have to consult the data sheets but as I 
recall the
C version is CMOS, perhaps a little less current draw and faster operation.

<---Yes Mike you can use the "non-C" type. (the C type is simply a 
low power cmos version). The one you have will draw a little more 
current but nothing to worry about I'm sure
