Throughout this manual, the entries that you are to make
from either the programmer or a terminal are indicated by
an equipment symbol and key symbol. For example,

1.2 SYSTEM OVERVIEW
The 298 provides a universal means of programming,
testing, and verifying a variety of memory and logic
devices. You can tailor the 298 to your programming needs
by selecting the appropriate programming Pak and plugging
it into the 298. The various programming components from
which you can choose to complete your programming
system are listed below and shown in figure 1-1.
•
Uni Pak 2™- programs more than 600 devices, including
MOS and CMOS EPROMs and EEPROMs, fuse link,
AIM and DEAP bipolar PROMs. Programming
algorithms are software selectable and no additional
personality modules are required. Simple pinout adapters
are available for 40-pin microcomputers and parts with
non-standard pinouts.
•
LogicPak™-combined with appropriate plug-in
adapters, allows you to design, program and
functionally test more than 80 different logic devices.
The high-level software translates your logic design from
truth tables or Boolean equations into the correct fuse
map.
•
GangPak™-gives you the capability of programming, in
a single operation, identical sets of MOS EPROMs or
EEPROMs. Set programming allows you to partition a
program into one or more sets of PROMs. The
GangPak™ can also be used for conventional gang
programming of up to eight devices at a time.
•
MOSPak™-programs more than 145 MOS EPROMs
and EEPROMs, requiring no additional hardware.
