yorgle Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 Can a 4k .bin be loaded into my programmer's software and programed it to a 2732 eprom or do I have to first combine 8 copies of the .bin (making it 32k) before programming to the eprom? In other words, do you have to fill up all of the available space on the eprom in order for it to work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPUWIZ Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 2732's are 4K chips. You are probably confused about kilobits and kilobytes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaybird3rd Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 I'm confused about a lot of things, but still I blunder on... Thanks for the info.It's pretty easy once you remember that there are eight bits per byte. So, the part number "2732" indicates 32 kilobits, which is equivalent to 4 kilobytes (since 32 divided by eight equals four). Along similar lines, if you have an 8K game, you would need a 2764 EPROM to put it on a cartridge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
