    0s and 1s. For all other types of memory, writing 0s is the only programming mode. The three modes provided for the TMS370 allow the selection of the most efficient programming. When the 1s and 0s mode is used, the programmer makes two passes through the address range, programming the 1s in one pass and the 0s in the other pass.

    Device family name: Device first name: Legal device family names supported by the programmers are TMS370, 2732, 2764, 27128, or 27256. Device first names are names that distinguish different versions of the same device family. The programmer software checks the device table to make sure the new device is not a duplication.

  • Page 44: Defining And Adding A Device To The Device Table

    Block Erase: Using the block erase parameter for devices with a family code of 10h (TMS370 EEPROM range) allows the array to be erased to 1s or 0s. The block erase parameter is ignored for any other family code and should be set to none for clarity.

    Program Algorithm: If the family code is 10h (TMS370 EEPROM range), one of three pro- gramming algorithms can be chosen— program 1s, program 0s, or program 1s and 0s. Using this parameter along with the block erase parameter, you can optimize for programming speed or can mini- mize the number of write erase cycles.
