The M27C160 has two organisations, Word-wide and Byte-wide. The organisation is selected by the signal level on the BYTEVPP pin. When BYTEVPP is at VIH the Word-wide organisation is selected and the Q15A–1 pin is used for Q15 Data Output. When the BYTEVPP pin is at VIL the Byte-wide organisation is selected and the Q15A–1 pin is used for the Address Input A–1. When the memory is logically regarded as 16 bit wide, but read in the Byte-wide organisation, then with A–1 at VIL the lower 8 bits of the 16 bit data are selected and with A–1 at VIH the upper 8 bits of the 16 bit data are selected.
