iwan-iwanowitsch-goratschin Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 Hi all. I want to know what the average lifetime of an eprom is?? Someone told me that they are working for 20-30 years. Is this right? And what is about unused, stored eproms? Greetings i-i-g Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greetings i-i-g I doubt there's a definite answer to that, but I can tell you that I tried using some old eproms my brother had stored in plastic storage containers for about 20 years and I was unable to burn code to them. As I recall, it was actually that I couldn't get them to erase completely that caused the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
