failure. All the inputs of the 866 programmer, including the ZIF 
socket, connection to PC and power supply input, are 
protected against ESD up to 15kV. 
866 programmer performs programming verification at the 
marginal level of supply voltage, which, obviously, improves 
programming yield, and guarantees long data retention. 
Various socket converters are available to handle device in 
PLCC, SOIC, PSOP, SSOP, TSOP, TSSOP, TQFP, QFN 
(MLF), SDIP, BGA and other packages. 
866 programmer is driven by an easy-to-use control program 
with pull-down menu, hot keys and on-line help. Selecting of 
device is performed by its class, by manufacturer or simply by 
typing a fragment of vendor name and/or part number. 
Standard device-related commands (read, blank check, 
program, verify, erase) are boosted by some test functions 
(insertion test, signature-byte check), and some special 
functions (autoincrement, production mode - start immediately 
after insertion of chip into socket). 
All known data formats are supported. Automatic file format 
detection and conversion during load of file. 
The rich-featured autoincrement function enables to assign 
individual serial numbers to each programmed device - or 
simply increments a serial number, or the function enables to 
read serial numbers or any programmed device identification 
signatures from a file. 
The software also provides a many informations about 
programmed device. As a special, the drawing of all available 
packages are provided. The software provide also explanation 
of chip labeling (the meaning of prefixes and suffixes at the 
chips) for each supported chip. 
It is important to remember that in most cases new devices 
require  only a software update due to the 866 is truly 
universal programmer. With our prompt service you can have 
new devices can be added to the current list within hours! 
Advanced design including protection circuits, original brand 
components and careful manufacturing allows us to provide a 
three-year warranty on parts and labor for the 866 (limited 
25,000-cycle warranty on ZIF socket).
