EA is high (connect to vcc) program fetches to address 0000H to 0FFFH are connected to internal ROM & program fetches to address 1000H through FFFFH are directed to external ROM.

EA pin low all address fetches by the program are directed to the external ROM.

1) If EA is acting high means we are using internal memory.

2) If EA is low -we are indicating the controller to use external rom.
