U24 PROM/ROM/SRAM/EEPROM Socket Configuration

Locations U24 and U36 both provide support for read only devices such as ROM, PROM, EPROM, and
Flash EPROM. Location U24 has additional support for read/write devices as well, SRAM and non-vola-
tile SRAM.
The positions of locations U24 and U36 are identified in Figure 1: on page 12 and Figure 2: on page 14.
Both locations are capable of supporting 32 or 28 pin devices. The figure below demonstrates the neces-
sary pin alignment for the respective devices. See CAUTIONS below!
