Product Information:
PGM2000 is a universal PICmicro MCU 8-gang
programmer supporting most PICmicro microcontrollers.
It comprises of a Master Control Unit (MCU) which
connects to an interchangeable 8-socket program adapter
for chip duplication. It is designed according to Microchip
Technologys programming specifications to ensure its
quality as a production programmer.
Program data and configuration fuse settings is initially
downloaded into the EEPROM of the MCU read from a
master chip or downloaded from a file on the PC host.
Once the codes reside in the MCU, they are stored
securely and protected from accidental modifications.
A Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) on the MCU provides
users with different functional menus and programming
results. There are two sets of functional menus. A regular
set for the operating staff with access to program, blank
check and verify functions only. A second secured
function set allows authorized personnel to specify
programming mode, configuration fuse, programming
voltages and read data from a master device to the MCU.
Several 8-socket program adapters are available to
program different PICmicro MCU devices and package
types. Each of the eight slave sockets is equipped with a
Light Emitting Diode (LED) to indicate blank check, verify
and program results.
To ensure that no defective codes will be duplicated,
PGM2000 tests the integrity of the data against its
checksum before each programming cycle which includes
blank check, program (data and configuration fuse) and
verification at the two selected voltages.
