865 has 48 powerful pindrivers in base unit, expandable up to
256 pindrivers using "pindriver expansion" modules. Advanced
pin drivers incorporate high-quality high-speed circuitry to
deliver
programming
and
testing
performance
without
overshoot or ground bounce for all device technologies. Pin
drivers operate down to 1.8V so you'll be ready to program the
full range of today's advanced low-voltage devices.
Modular design of 865 allows adapting the programmer
according to customers needs either as very flexible universal
programmer for laboratory or high efficient multi-programmer in
production line. Multiprogramming capability for most of
supported devices is accomplished by using "multiple socket"
modules.
Powerful pindriver provides logic level, pull-up/pull-down, clock,
ground, one VCC supply and two programming supply and,
certainly read, on each of all 48 pins independently. This
advanced design give it the ability to program almost every
programmable device in DIL up to 48 pins without adapter or
family specific module. Support for today and tomorrow
programmable devices gives engineers the freedom to choose
the optimum device for new design.
865 isn't only programmer, but also tester of TTL/CMOS logic
ICs and memories. Furthermore, it allows generate of user-
definable test pattern sequences.
The programmer has on-board intelligence, comprise of
powerful Microcontroller system and support devices. 865 has
been designed for multitasking operating systems and is
able
to
perform
time-critical
programming
sequences
independently of the PC operating system status and without
being interrupted by any another parallel process running on
the PC. Consequently, 865 works without any problem on
systems running Windows 95/98/Me/NT/2000/XP.
The programmer performs device insertion test (wrong or
backward position) and contact check (poor contact pin-to-
socket) before it programs each device. These capabilities,
supported by over current protection and signature-byte check
help prevent chip damage due to operator error.
Built-in protection circuits eliminate damage of programmed
device due to mains supply fluctuations, communication error
or if PC is frozen. In event of such errors Microcontroller in
programmer performs, independently on the PC, exactly
specified sequence of steps, so that programmed target device
remains
intact.
Programmer's
hardware
offers
enough
resources for self test, that control program is any time be
able to check pindrivers, present and correct level of all
