Change for the specification of ROM module
Abstract
We cannot continue producing the ROM module, which is used rewritable EPROM (UV EPROM), for
the system software and the ladder program in FS16/18-MODEL A/B/C and FS15-MODEL B because
the memory makers ended to manufacture UV EPROM.
Therefore, we correspond to product the new ROM modules, which is used OTPROM (One-Time
Programmable ROM) instead of UV EPROM.
In new ROM modules, programming data is ONLY ONE and it is impossible to erase data programmed
by UV. This change is due to correspond to manufacture end of UV EPROM and be not a substitute.
1. Applied system and specification of ROM module
FS16/18-MODEL A/B/C and FS15-MODEL B
Name of ROM module Current spec. (EPROM) New spec. (OTPROM)
ROM module (1MB) A20B-2900-0290 A20B-2900-0295
ROM module (768kB) A20B-2900-0291 A20B-2900-0296
ROM module (512kB) A20B-2900-0292 A20B-2900-0297
ROM module (256kB) A20B-2900-0293 A20B-2900-0298
ROM module (128kB) A20B-2900-0294 A20B-2900-0299
ROM module (2MB) A20B-2901-0122 A20B-2901-0127
Use: ROM module for storing system software (Basic function, PMC function or RISC function, etc.)
ROM module for storing Ladder Program (FS16/18-MODEL A only)
ROM module for storing P Code Program for Macro Executer (FS16/18-MODEL A only)
2. Difference between current module and new module
In new ROM modules, programming data in ROM module is ONLY ONE and it is impossible to erase
data programmed.
New ROM modules are available to the existing ROM writer.
Difference between current module and new one is only whether erasing data or not, and these
modules are compatible if the same software is programmed in ROM module.
3. Change schedule
(1) All order of P.C.B. for storing the ladder program and P Code Program for Macro Executer, and for
maintenance, is changed the new P.C.B. specification. Please change the specification of ROM
module referring to the table above.
Change schedule: A20B-2900-029× December 2004
A20B-2900-0122 March 2005
(2) ROM module for storing system software (Basic function, PMC function or RISC function, etc.) is
changed to the new ROM module one by one after December 2004. It is unnecessary to change the
order specification.
