DESCRIPTION
Different programming boards are designed for
programming the various EPROM and OTP devic-
es of the ST62 microcontroller family. For a partic-
ular device, all available packages (except SSOP)
are supported by the same programming board.
It can run either in standalone or remote mode
(connected to a PC).
In standalone mode, the microcontrollers can be
programmed by simply pressing a key to start cop-
ying the code from a master EPROM device or a
master microcontroller. Two-color LEDs indicate if
the operation has passed or failed.
In standalone mode an EPROM memory or a
master MCU is plugged into the programming
board. The code from the EPROM or the master
MCU is read and programmed into the ST62
EPROM or OTP device. Both VERIFY and BLANK
CHECK functions are provided.
In remote mode, the programming board is con-
nected to a PC through an RS232 serial channel
or a parallel port. Object code in either S19 or IN-
TEL HEX format is read from disk file to program
the ST62 EPROM or OTP device. The Windows
software also offers VERIFY, BLANK CHECK,
READ MASTER functions. The software allows
various user friendly facilities, such as re-instating
the same programming session, user selectable
programming steps; it also allows serial number-
ing with auto-incrementation.
