70ns is the mil temp range rating for the 27S32; the commercial spec is 55
ns.
70ns parts would probably work fine in an M9312, as
At 70ns, I can make the design pretty simple by using an EEPROM. I did some
trial synthesis targeting a Lattice MachXO2 part, and I think I could get the
speed down into the 20ns range that way, at the cost of a more complex board
design and needing to use Lattice's synthesis tool to prepare

If anyone from the UK is coming over to VCFMW and would be willing to bring
me some nice crisp uncirculated currency I will be happy to trade you for
US currency or DEC computer items. I can make up a list over the next few
days. I don't know when the new 50 is coming out, and I'm also interested
If anyone going to VCFMW needs any (mosyly) DEC items dropped off there
please let me know so I can plan ahead. Trades are sometimes workable for
other DEC equipment, even more so for US and foreign coins and currency.
I plan on arriving Friday afternoon and returning Saturday night.
