  • Page 4: Introduction

    The operator merely removes the finished chip and inserts a new chip. Operator training is therefore minimized. BeeHive8S supports all kinds and types of silicon technology found in today’s and tomorrows programmable devices without family specific modules. You can be sure that...
  • Page 5 As a result, when used in production this programmer waits for an operator, and not the other way round. BeeHive8S provides the two banana jacks, one for ESD wrist strap connection for easy-to-implement ESD protection and the second one for connection to ground.

  • Page 8: Manipulation With The Programmed Device

    Don't unplug the target device from the ZIF socket during work with device (BUSY LED on). In-system serial programming by BeeHive8S Optimized advanced pindrivers deliver programming performance without overshoot or ground bounce for all device technologies. Pin drivers operate down to 1.8V so you'll be ready to program the full range of today's advanced low- voltage devices.

  • Page 9: Selftest And Calibration Check

    • Use only ISP cable from delivery package. When you use other ISP cable (other material, length…), programming may become unreliable. • BeeHive8S can supply power to the programmed device (pin 1 of ISP connector) and the target system (pin 19 and 20 of ISP connector) with some limitations (see Technical specification / ISP connector).
  • Page 10 ELNEC s.r.o. If you feel that y our programmer does not react according to your expecta tion, please run the programmer (ISP connector’s) selftest using D iagnostic POD (Diagnostic POD for ISP connectors #2), enclosed in the standard deliver y package.
