    3. Specifications Table 3.1 lists specifications of the programming adapter. Table 3.1 Specifications of the programming adapter Operating clock frequency Board configuration Applicable MCU M38B79FFFP (100-pin 0.65mm-pitch QFP) 1MHz (Supplied by the ceramic oscillator mounted on the adapter) Power supply Supplied from Vcc of the PROM programmer IC socket IC51-1004-814-6 (made by Yamaichi Electronics Co., Ltd.)
  • Page 8: How To Write The Program

    4. How to Write the Program This chapter describes how to write programs using a PROM programmer. For details on how to operate the PROM programmer, refer to the user's manual of the PROM programmer. 4.1 Programming Procedures Follow procedures (1) to (8) to write programs into the MCU. (1) Read the program into the PROM programmer.
  • Page 9: Attaching Adapter To Prom Programmer

    4.2 Attaching Adapter to PROM Programmer As shown in Figure 4.1, attach the No. 1 pin of the PCA7402E connector (standard-pitch 32-pin pin- header mounted) to the No. 1 pin of the IC socket of the PROM programmer. Be careful when attaching to the PROM programmer because incorrect insertion can cause fatal damage to the MCU.

    5. Recommended PROM Programmers The PROM programmers listed in Table 5.1 are recommended for this product. Using the actual products, we have verified that these PROM programmers can be used to write programs without problem. Nonconformity occurring by using any other PROM programmers can not be supported. For the latest type of PROM programmers, contact the manufacturer to confirm whether it can be used for your product.

  • Page 16: Mcu Does Not Function Normally

    7.2 MCU Does Not Function Normally The program operates normally on the emulator, but when the MCU that has normally been written is attached the same program does not function normally. (1) Is the offset address specified correctly when copying data into the PROM programmer? (2) In the emulator, NOPs are often inserted in the area where the program has not been read, therefore the program happens to appear functioning normally even though it may have gone wild.
