Introduction

MEMprog is next member of Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2000/XP
based ELNEC specialized programmers. Programmer is built
to meet the demands of the development labs and field
engineers for a specialized memory programmer.
MEMprog is little, very fast and powerful portable programmer
for virtually all memory types - EPROM, EEPROM, NVRAM,
Flash EPROM and serial EEPROM - low voltage types
including. MEMprog isn't only programmer, but also static RAM
tester.
MEMprog provides very competitive price but excellent
hardware design for reliable programming. Nice "value for
money" in this class.
Very fast programming due to high-speed FPGA driven
hardware and support of IEEE1284 (ECP/EPP) high-speed
parallel port.
MEMprog interfaces with the IBM PC 486 compatible or
higher, portable or desktop personal computers through any
parallel (printer) port, but it can utilize all ECP/EPP
advantages.
MEMprog has 40 powerful TTL pindrivers provide
H/L/pull_up/pull_down and read capability for each pin of
socket. Advanced pindrivers incorporate high-quality high-
speed circuitry to deliver programming without overshoot or
ground bounce for all supported devices. Pin drivers operate
down to 1.8V so you'll be ready to program the full range of
today's advanced low-voltage devices.
The programmer performs device insertion test (wrong or
backward position) and contact check (poor contact pin-to-
socket) before it programs each device. These capabilities,
supported by signature-byte check help prevent chip damage
due to operator error.
Programmer's hardware offers enough resources for selftest,
that control program is any time be able to check pindrivers,
present and correct level of all voltages, check the timing and
communication between programmer and PC.
MEMprog performs programming verification at the marginal
level of supply voltage, which, obviously, improves
programming yield, and guarantees long data retention.
