  • Page 3: Power-On Initial

    1. Power-on initial When the power is turn on, the PROM8908 will take a few seconds to configure its hardware and turn off all the slave's LED lamps. It then starts to check all textool pins by accessing their address bus(A0..A15) and data bus(D0..D7).
  • Page 4: The Key-Switch Command Operations

    "CHECKSUM" command is executed. (4) MESSAGE: display the general operation message. [PROM9801] For devices which has the "T48" message shown 4on this field when its name was selected should be handled on the upper 48pin textools.

    of each byte and shows the sum's last four digits on the LCD's upper row. The second one is calculated by adding up each byte and shows on the LCD's lower row. The first value has the advantage of knowing if the master IC is a blank one or not.
  • Page 6: Algorithm/Psb Setting

    For some ICs(see section 5) which has the block lock/protect feature, the programmer will enable/disable this feature on those blocks according to the settings in the PSB byte. Algorithm/PSB setting [key1 + key2 + key3]: For most EPROMs, this command changes the programming algorithm and the time.
  • Page 7: Transfer And Group Selection

    Transfer and Group Selcetion [key1 + key3]: The PROM8908/980x can upload data from the master IC to the PC, or download data from the PC to the slave ICs. Also the PROM8908F using this command to select the Device Group and Size of the target chip.
  • Page 8: Name -Name

    After a device group was selected, a further detailed selection based on the size of the chip has to be chose, to help the user more quickly locate his target. If you want to do the download, insert the ICs into the slave textools before you depress the [key3] to have them be checked or erased to their blank status.

    3. There is no final VERIFY action taken at the end of download such as in the COPY commands. Instead, a checksum of all the received data bytes will be shown on the LCD display, letting the user to verify its correctness manually by reading these IC's checksum in the master textool.
  • Page 10: Firmware Update

    5. Firmware Update [PROM8908D/E, PROM980x] The PROM8908D/E has a firmware PROM located at the back side of the main board. It can be easily accessed by simply remove the four plastic stands at the bottom of the machine. The user has to download the updated firmware image file from the web and copy it into a 27C512 equalivent PROM(with access time 70ns) and replace it.
  • Page 11: Appendix Of Ic Operation Note

    Appendix of IC operation note: The following ICs' lock status has the PSB copied in the COPY command and verified in the VERIFY command: AM29F010, AM29F040-old, AM29F040, AM29F002T/NT, M29F002T/NT, MX29F8100, MX29F1610, W29C020, W29C040, AT49F010, AT49F020, AT49F040. (For AT49F001T and AT49F002T, the PSB will be copied, but not verified) The following ICs have the capability of Temporary Sector Unprotect feature, allows code changes in previously locked sectors.
  • Page 12: M29/Am29F002T/Nt/B/Nb

    PROM8908 always handle it in the BYTE mode. For devices only have the WORD configuration, it's impossible to handle on this machine. 16bit EPROM/FLASH operation on the PROM9801 The upper 48pin textools are used to handle all 16bit EPROMs and 16bit word-configurable-only devices.
  • Page 13 There are two names can be chose for this device, AM29F040-old and AM29F040. When "COPY" command is executed, the "-old" name will conduct an extra step of doing the Sector-Protect-Unprotect on the chip. Because some newer date-coded chip(dated after 3) have a different Unprotect algorithm, the old algorithm will cause all eight sectors been kept on "Protected"...
  • Page 14: Atmel 49F001T/002T

    Atmel 49F001T/002T Operation These chips have a boot block with lockout feature. This feature works in a OTP (one-time-program) way, which means once it had been activated, it can't be unlocked anymore. To prevent it from accidentally enabled, the user must set the Protect-Setting-Byte (PSB) to the value of 5A(HEX) to let the programmer activate this lockout feature automatically in the COPY command.

    1. VERIFY: If the Lock bit is set to the "read suppress", all slave ICs will be verified with fixed value of $FF to confirm this setting. If it's not, all slave ICs will be compared with the master contents. 2.

    3. COPY: Erase all the slaves, copy the flash portion of the master IC, and then set the Fuse and Lock bits according to the value stored in PSB. At last, execute a VERIFY command. 4. DOWNLOAD: Erase all the slaves, transfer data to the slaves' flash portion, then set the Fuse and Lock bits according to the value stored in PSB.
  • Page 17 First, select the EPROM device group by entering Transfer mode [key1+key3], then pressing [key2] to bring up the "Eprom Group" message onto the LCD display, then pressing [key3] to confirm. Second, select the required chip size by pressing [key1] or [key2] to bring up the "Size 512K"...
  • Page 18 master's checksum was recalculated and displayed again. A noticeable beep will alert the user if there is any change at the checksum value which, in normal situation, shouldn't be happen. All the failed ICs, including the empty sockets, are indicated by lighting their corresponding LED.
  • Page 19: Warranty

    8. WARRANTY These products are warranted to be free from defects in materials and workmanship, but excluding the ZIF textools which are of expendable materials, for 18 months from the date of shipment or 12 months after delivery to the first purchaser for use, whichever occurs first, providing that the units have not been misused.
