UV erasers are specialized devices designed to erase data stored in ultraviolet-erasable programmable read-only memory (EPROM) chips by exposing them to ultraviolet (UV-C) light. These devices play a critical role in electronics manufacturing, chip programming workflows, and hardware debugging. Their importance stems from enabling reusable semiconductor memory solutions in applications ranging from industrial control systems to legacy computer hardware maintenance.
| Type | Functional Features | Application Examples |
|---|---|---|
| Standard UV Eraser | Fixed UV exposure time, manual chamber loading | Basic electronics labs |
| Smart UV Eraser | Variable intensity control, automatic sensor activation | High-volume production lines |
| Portable UV Eraser | Battery-powered, compact form factor | Field service operations |
| Industrial UV Eraser | High-intensity arrays, automated conveyor systems | Semiconductor manufacturing |
Typical UV erasers consist of: - UV-C lamp array (254nm wavelength primary emission) - Quartz glass exposure chamber - Mechanical timer/electronic exposure controller - Safety interlock system (optical sensors + physical switches) - Heat dissipation system (passive/active cooling) - EPROM chip retention tray with alignment guides
| Parameter | Typical Range | Importance |
|---|---|---|
| UV Output Intensity | 5-30 mW/cm | Determines erase speed and effectiveness |
| Wavelength Range | 200-280 nm | Must match EPROM silicon sensitivity |
| Exposure Time | 5-30 minutes | Impacts process throughput |
| Safety Certification | CE, UL, ISO 13482 | Operator protection compliance |
| Power Requirements | 100-240V AC | Global deployment capability |
| Dimensions | 150-600mm | Workstation integration factor |
| Manufacturer | Representative Product | Key Features |
|---|---|---|
| Electro-Solve Inc. | UV-5000 Pro | 25W UV-C output, touch-screen interface |
| Heller Industries | 4000 Series UV System | Conveyor automation, dual-lamp redundancy |
| OK International | Pro UV Eraser 950 | Portable design, USB connectivity |
| Tenryu Technica | UV-L300 | 30-minute rapid erase cycle, AI exposure control |
