The ChipMaster 6000 is a universal programmer that handles complicated DIP-type silicon PLD's, microprocessors and high density memory chips without adapters. This intutive and easy to use programmer is designed for both laboratory and mass-production applications. It meets all the requirements to earn it's title as a universal programmer.
After completing the in class exercise you will be able to do the following:
Preparation
Inserting an EPROM
Programming data to an EPROM
Reading data from an EPROM
Erasing an EPROM
Preparation
1.Ask the instructor for an EPROM
2 Check to see that the CM 6000 is connected to a power supply
3.Make sure that it is connected to the PC parallel port
4.Turn on the PC and the CM 6000
5.Wait for the computer to boot into Windows
6.Double click on the CM 6000 icon on the desktop
Inserting an EPROM
1. Make sure the busy LED is off on the CM 6000
2. Lift the lever at the top of the socket by pulling towards you
3. Insert the chip so that the notch is at the top and the bottom of the chip is in the last slot
4. Close the socket by pushing it away from you
5. Verify the chip is inserted properly by clicking the AUTOID button(Auto Select window will open)
6. Select OK button to close the window
7. Check to see if the chip is blank by cliking the BLANK button
8. Go to earasing an EPROM if device is not blank
IF NOT YOU WILL GET THIS MESSAGE:
Programming data to an EPROM
1. Select the EDIT button to bring up the Buffer Edit window
2. Enter the data exactly as shown in the table above
3. Starting at the upper left corner type in the data
4. Click the DONE button to get out of the Buffer Edit window
5. Burn the data on to an EPROM by clicking on the PROGRAM button
WHEN PROGRAMING IS COMLETE YOU SHOULD GET THE FOLLOWING MESSAGE:
Reading data from an EPROM
1. Clear the buffer by clicking on the EDIT button
2. Select the FILL button and then the OK button
3. Exit window by clicking the DONE button
4. Select the READ button to read the data you wrote to the EPROM
5. Click the EDIT button to see and confirm the data you wrote earlier
5. Close out of the buffer window by clicking the DONE button
Erasing an EPROM
1. Remove the EPROM from the CM 6000
2. Verify that the EPROM UV lamp is plugged in
3. Open the EPROM UV Lamp and place the EPROM face up on the bed
4. Close the bed and hold down the WHITE button until the VOILET light turns on
5. Expose the EPROM in the UV light for 15 minutes
6. Push the RED button to turn off the light
1. The term EPROM stands for Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory. (TRUE / FALSE)
2. The CM 6000 can detect if a pin on the EPROM is broken. (TRUE / FALSE)
3. Using an EPROM programmer is the best way to remove all data from an EPROM. (TRUE / FALSE)
4. The CM 6000 was designed for both laboratory and mass production application. (TRUE / FALSE)
5. A non-blank chip can be programmed. (TRUE / FALSE)
6. The maximum number of pins that can be programmed is 28. (TRUE / FALSE)
7. The CM takes approx 70 seconds to program an 8 MB EPROM. (TRUE / FALSE)
8. The CM is capable of supporting over 1200 different devices. (TRUE / FALSE)
9. CM 6000 can read the high/low voltage points of an EPROM. (TRUE / FALSE)
10. CM 6000 will blank-check the device before programming. (TRUE / FALSE)
