Re: Selectable chips & boost programming

["Programmer" <nwester@eidnet.org>]

David,

Just got something from Fairchild SemiCond, and I'll try to decipher what
this spec sheet shows. Whew...this is totally foreign territory to me.
Looks like data address inputs are from A0 through A16. There's no info on
what each pin corresponds to which address on the chip.  The additional
address lines are A17-A19. Are these the ones you connected via switch ?
