    1.1 INTRODUCTION 1.1.1 What is Superpro? The SUPERPRO is a family of affordable, reliable, and fast universal IC device programmers. They are designed to communicate through a parallel (printer) or USB port(model dependent) and to operate with Intel 80486- and Pentium-based IBM- compatible desktop computers and notebook computers.

    switch and observe the power LED coming on bright. Please be sure not to insert any chip onto the programmer socket at this time. 1.2.3 Running the Program Please run the main program for the programmer. If everything is set up correctly, then the main screen should come up without any error message.

  • Page 9: Device Insertion

    1.2.5 Device Insertion For chips in DIP package Follow the reference diagram next to the socket. Chips are always inserted at the bottom line of the ZIF socket with the pin 1 facing toward upper left corner. For some low-end models, some devices may need to be inserted in a non-standard way.

    Figure 8 Data type 2.1.2 Save This selection will save the current data in the buffer to disk. For E(E)PROM, BPROM or MCU device types, Save File window will pop up. Select the folder and filename to be saved under. Next, File Type dialog box will pop up for selecting file type to be saved under.
  • Page 12 Figure 9. Edit Buffer Locate The function is convenient for locating a set of data for editing. In the Locate Buffer dialog box, key in the address you wish to see displayed and press OK. The cursor will blink at the address specified in the space marked New Address. Fill The function will bring up the Fill Buffer dialogue box.

    This opens the Vector Buffer Edit window. If a test vector table is included in the JEDEC file, the software will load the test vector table to the buffer automatically when the JEDEC file is loaded. Refer to the following when editing the test vector. Z: High impedance state X: Don't care state N: Vcc and ground (output pins are not tested)
  • Page 15 Figure 15. Run Program The function writes the data from the buffer into the chip. The Verify function is performed automatically after programming. If an error occurs, the error message will be displayed along with the addresses and data of the chip and buffer where the error occurred.
  • Page 16 Verify The function compares the content of the buffer to that of the chip. If there is any discrepancy, verify failure message and the address where it started failing will be displayed in the Message window. For PROM or MCU devices, verification of range between start and end addresses (specified by you) is available.

    Chip End Input an address for the chip where you would like a selected function of downloading or uploading to end. This is normally set to the end address of the chip. Buff Start This sets the address in the buffer where file loading begins. By changing the address, a file can be loaded at any desired location.

The user-friendly software provides an easy interface for loading files, editing test patterns, and downloading and uploading data between the buffer and the device. The SUPERPROs provide a 74/54 and 4000/45000 TTL/CMOS logic device test library, and memory test algorithms.
