Illegal Bit Error
Probable Cause
Solution
Windowed device contains
data
Perform a blank check on the device (using the More/Device checks
options from the Main Menu) to determine whether it is truly blank. If
blank check reports “non-blank device,” place the device under a UV
lamp and allow sufficient time for it to be fully erased. After erasure,
reprogram the device.
Electrically erasable (EE)
device contains data, and
device’s electronic erase
feature is not enabled
Maker sure that the device’s electronic erase feature (Erase EE Device
parameter under the Program Device screen) is enabled (set to “Y”).
Reprogram the device after the electronic erase feature has been
enabled.
Note: To display all parameters on the Program Device screen, press the F4
function key.
One Time Programmable
(OTP) device contains data
Perform a blank check on the device to determine whether the device
contains data. If so, your OTP device had previously been programmed
and most likely cannot be over-programmed with different data or fuse
pattern. Program another device.
Faulty device(s)
Program at least one more device labeled with the same date code. If it
programs successfully, your original device was probably faulty. If
other devices with the same date code also fail, attempt to program
devices labeled with different date codes. If these devices program
successfully, the devices from the original date code are probably faulty.
Note: You may wish to contact the device manufacturer and report your
findings.
Improper algorithm applied by
programmer due to recent
change in manufacturer
specifications
If this error occurs only on devices with recent date codes, the devices
may require a modified programming algorithm.
Note: You may wish to contact the device manufacturer to determine whether
the programming specifications for the device have changed.
Improper algorithm applied by
programmer due to possible
bug in programmer software
This error, if it occurs on devices with old to recent date codes, may
indicate an algorithm-related problem in your programmer software.
Workaround:
On your programmer’s Device List, find the earliest
version of programmer software that supports the device, boot your
programmer with this version, and attempt the operation again. If the
operation is successful, you’ve found a temporary workaround.
Note: Contact Data I/O Customer Support and report your findings.
