QP Semiconductor Announces Qualified Military UV EPROM Family

QP Semiconductor, an e2v group company, today announced that the Defense Supply Center, Columbus (DSCC) has approved the QP family of re-engineered UV EPROMs for listing on several SMD (Standard Military Drawing) selections.  

The QP EPROM family consists of the QP27C64, QP27C128 and QP27C256 which are fully re-designed products that support all pin-out, package styles, electrical characteristics and programming specs of the original devices supplied by AMD and Intel.  Furthermore, QP EPROMs (which are listed on SMDs  85102, 5962-87661 and 5962-86063) meet all of the AC / switching characteristics of the original devices, thereby providing a true drop-in replacement with no impact to timing constraints of the sub-system.

“The QP design team met the challenge to design identical replacements for the EPROM densities that comprise the majority of EPROM obsolescence issues affecting our customers.  QP is now the only manufacturer of QML EPROM products that can guarantee long term supply to the OEMs”, said Jim Townsend, Director of Marketing for QP Semiconductor, adding “this family of re-designed EPROMs is a strong addition to the QP-redesigned PLD and Analog products and demonstrates our investment for long-life support of mission critical ICs in the Military DMS and EOL arena”.??For pricing or information about QP Semiconductor’s more than 3,500 QML listings, please visit: http://www.qpsemi.com/requestaquote.asp
