22 Manual Production Mode (One-Touch Operation)
The production mode is a powerful option for volume programming
The following steps should be done to correctly prepare the software for programming in the production
mode:
Create a subdirectory (C:\FILE_HEX)
Copy your CFG, HEX and SERIALIZATION files to FILE_HEX subdirectory (for example: "hex1.hex" and
"ser1.ser")
NOTE: serialization file is optional
Change ICP_Win shortcut property "Start in" to C:\FILE_HEX
Change ICP_Win shortcut property "Target" to C:\...\ICP_Win.exe hex1.hex /sser1.ser /p
Double-click ICP_Win icon for programming
The program will be terminated in the following cases:
Communication error
Hex file error
Serialization file should be loaded (/s appears) but loading is failed
23 In-Circuit Programming
Standard in-circuit programming is done through 5 wires (VDD, GND, CLOCK, DATA and VPP)
23.1 Vdd
Maximum Vdd current consumption by the application circuit :
- ICP2/ICP2-GANG:
- ICP2(HC):
- ICP2-Portable:
Maximum Vdd capacitance: 1000-10000uF. For ICP2/ICP2-GANG, increase Vdd-to-Vpp delay by about
20ms for every 1000uF
NOTE: If your circuit has low current consumption (less than 10mA) in conjunction with high capacitance
(more than 100uF), the load resistor (100-510 Ohm) must be connected between Vdd and GND pins of the
programmer for faster discharge of Vdd capacitor
23.2 Vpp
Vpp recommended load (ICP2/ICP2GANG/ICP2-Portable):
Vpp recommended load (ICP2(HC)):
23.3 CLOCK and DATA
CLOCK and DATA recommended load(ICP2/ICP2GANG/ICP2-Portable):
CLOCK and DATA recommended load(ICP2(HC)):
23.4 Delay between Vdd and Vpp
This delay should be as short as possible (4ms is recommended)
NOTE: for more details contact Softlog Systems to obtain "ICP2-GANG Specification", "ICP2
Specification", "ICP2(HC) Specification" and "ICP2-Portable Specification"
