Owner manual
• Buttons of device operation Blank, Verify, Program, Erase, or Run are used for running
of selected device operation on all chips (sub-devices) listed in table Sub-projects.
• In "Multi operation" mode, one of all available operations can be run at a time (the
same operation on each sub-device).
• In "One operation" mode, only one operation can be run (the same operation on each
sub-device) or each subproject can run it's own (one) operation, depending on projects
the Multi-project consists of.
Following two basic actions have to be performed when using Multi-project to program
Multi-chip devices (similar also for Single-chip devices)::
• Making (building) of Multi-project (or Multi-project file)
• Using of Multi-project for running of device operation
Making (building) of Multi-project (or Multi-project file)
Following steps are recommended when making Multi-project file:
• Create "classic" projects, one project for each sub-device of multichip device.
Projects are created in the same way as projects for generic devices:
• select sub-device according to required chip of multichip device *1
• set device parameters, settings, and load required device data to buffer by Load file
command in PG4UW
• optionally make test of device operation by running the device operation on device
• if everything is OK, the project file can be created by Save project command
• Select Master multichip device, the Multi-project has to be used for. After selection of
multichip device, Multi-project Wizard is automatically opened.
• In Multi-project Wizard add required projects by Add project button. Each project
represents one sub-device of multichip device.
• After completing of sub-project selection, use button Build Multi-project to create final
Multi-project file. Program will prompt for name of new Multi-project file. Final Multi-project
file will contain all sub-projects listed in Table 1: Sub-projects.
Notes:
There is possible to create Multi-project from any classic project files. So association with
Master device is not mandatory. It is only on user's consideration how to combine correct
sub-devices (sub-projects) into one Multi-project. This feature can be especially useful when
using ISP programming of devices in JTAG chain with different projects defined.
Multi-project Wizard can be opened by one of following actions:
• selecting of Master multichip device from Select Device dialog in PG4UW
• loading of created Multi-project file
• opening dialog Multi-project Wizard directly from PG4UW menu Options | Multi-project
Wizard
*1 Convention for Master-device and Sub-device part names in PG4UW device list:
Master-device: Multichip_original_part_name [package_type]
Sub-devices: Multichip_original_part_name [package_type] (part1)
Multichip_original_part_name [package_type] (part2)
...
Multichip_original_part_name [package_type] (part n)
