Introduction

DATAMAN 448PRO2AP-AU is the core for automated programmers and automatic test
equipments (ATE) with built-in actuation units. It is super fast universal 4x 48-pindrive
concurrent multiprogramming system designed for high volume production programming.
DATAMAN 448PRO2AP-AU consist from four DATAMAN 48PRO2 based independent
programming modules, which work separately from other programming modules, therefore
each programming module have separate ZIF socket actuation unit. The chips are
programmed at near theoretical maximum programming speed.
DATAMAN 448PRO2AP-AU is an industrial version of DATAMAN 448PRO2 programmer for
usage in automated programmers without ZIF socket opener. The differences are:
 the dimensions of the DATAMAN 448PRO2AP-AU programmer are reduced - compared to
the DATAMAN 448PRO2 - in intent to minimize overhead of the handler's arm movement
 more mechanically stable case to be immune against vibration during operation. The case of
DATAMAN 448PRO2AP-AU is prepared to be fastened from top or from bottom of
programmer body into automated programmer working place
 different construction of programming modules, stable enough for insert/replace chips by
mechanical arm and also that allow to keep identical position of ZIF socket also after
replacing of the module
 built in 4 independent actuation units, one for each programming site, for opening ZIF
after finishing work with device
The ZIF socket actuation unit is designed for all kinds and sizes of ZIF sockets used at
programming modules. Simple design allows applying pressure exactly symmetrically to top
of ZIF socket and it keeps mechanical life of ZIF socket as long as possible.
Smart design of pressure plates is designed to be easy adjustable and the pressure can be
applied to ZIF socket at proper place.
ZIF socket actuation unit work very fast, both action, push and release, take less than 0.5s
each.
In comparison with competitive solutions, where more ZIF sockets are actuated together (...
and slowly), our solution for ZIF socket actuation really don't retard the handler's arm
movement.
The lifetime of ZIF socket actuation unit is more than 2.5 million cycles at condition of ZIF
socket pressure force below 2.5 kg.
DATAMAN 448PRO2AP-AU can be implemented into automated programmer (as a
replacement of obsolete programmer) or into some handler by two ways:
1. using of standard PC, for example DATAMAN 448PRO2AP-AU can be connected to the
control PC of automated programmer (up to 2 DATAMAN 448PRO2AP-AU can be
attached to one computer using USB hub or USB ports of the PC).
2. using DATAMAN 448PRO2AP control unit (option)
