applied to the target device and for reliable communication with

the PC.

864 incorporates optimal PCB design criteria to minimize

unwanted effects at the pins of the target socket (such as

ground-bouncing and supply/programming voltage glitches). All

the inputs of the 864, including the socket, are protected

against ESD and whilst inserted the target device is also

protected against ESD damage.

864 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.

864 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 upgrade since the 864 has 48 true

pin drivers, which can perform as required under program

control. With our prompt service new devices can be added to

the current list within hours!
