Instructions for Use:

1. Power Supply:

   • Connect Vcc to a stable 5V power supply.
   • Ensure the ground (GND) is properly connected to avoid noise and data corruption.

2. Addressing:

   • Apply the desired address to the address lines (A0-A17) to select the memory location.
   • The device supports 256K addresses, each with 16 bits of data.

3. Data I/O:

   • Data is read from or written to the data lines (DQ0-DQ15).
   • For read operations, set the Output Enable (OE) low while the Chip Enable (CE) is low.
   • For write operations, set the Write Enable (WE) low while the Chip Enable (CE) is low.

4. Control Signals:

   • Chip Enable (CE): Low to enable the device; high to disable.
   • Output Enable (OE): Low to enable data output; high to tristate the data lines.
   • Write Enable (WE): Low to write data; high to prevent writing.

5. Timing:

   • Ensure that the access time (tAC) and cycle time (tCYC) are respected to avoid data corruption.
   • Use appropriate timing circuits or microcontroller settings to meet these requirements.

6. Environmental Conditions:

   • Operate the device within the specified temperature range to ensure reliable performance.
   • Store the device in a dry environment to prevent damage.

7. Handling:

   • Handle the device with care to avoid static discharge, which can damage the internal circuitry.
   • Use proper ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) protection when handling the device.

8. Testing:

   • Perform initial testing under controlled conditions to verify the functionality of the device.
   • Use standard test patterns to validate read and write operations.
