Part Programming

Once you have entered a valid part number, click the Program button to program the part. The
programming process result will be reflected in the output window as shown below.
If part programming is successful, the operation indicator field will show a green PASSED indicator.
If the part programming fails, the operation indicator field will show a red FAILED indicator. In this
case, see the "Programming generates a FAIL message" section of this manual for information on
how to proceed. Part verification is done automatically following any programming operation.
During the programming and verification procedures, the active channel window will dim and all
controls in the channel dialog boxes will be disabled. The operation indicator will read BUSY as
shown below.
8.5

Tracking ID

The main UI includes an optional Tracking ID field to help you track programming history. After entering
the part number but before programming, you may enter a text string to be associated with the part.
This Tracking ID will then be displayed after programming in the Logs viewer window.
8.6

Auto Detect Mode

To enable auto detect mode, click
indicating that auto detect mode is enabled. In auto detect mode with the SiTime programmer
connected, the software will automatically check for the presence of a part in each channel and display
an individual channel view for the appropriate channel. An appropriate message will be displayed in the
Message Window whenever an FP part is detected.
Auto detect mode can be used for part frequency estimation. If an already programmed part is inserted
in the socket, the message will display the estimated part frequency.
