Basic terms related to Multi-project:
Multi-project file is special file that contains all Multi-project information. Multi-project file
can include one or more projects. Projects included in Multi-project (file) are also called sub-
projects.
Sub-project means classic project file which has been included into Multi-project file during
Multi-project file build.
Project file - a special type of file that combines buffer data, device operation options,
special options and some level of safety features. It completely defines the way how to treat
with the device. Once saved, it can be reloaded anytime and the operation can be repeated
exactly.
Multi-chip device is device with two or more independent chips (of the same or various
types) in single package.
Sub-device - an individual part of multichip device. Sub-device is selectable from PG4UW
device list. Once selected, you can work with respective chip in fully manner. You can define,
test and save the project file for the partial chip.
Master device - a multichip device unit consists of sub-devices. Master-device is selectable
from PG4UW device list, too. Once selected, you can use Multi-project Wizard to build-up
the Multi-project file from individual project files and save/load/execute it. Master device is
not defined if the Multi-project is built up from Single-chip devices.
Device operation - each operation executable directly selecting via menu, clicking on
toolbar button or callable via remote command (Blank, Read, Verify, Program, Erase). Some
of these operations (especially Program and Erase) may contain embedded sub-operations,
editable via Menu/Device/Device options.
Multi-project Wizard - an assistant for Multi-project file building. The Wizard allows user to
select projects that have to be included in Multi-project and save them to one Multi-project
file. Process of saving selected project files to one Multi-project file is called Multi-project file
building. The Wizard also allows to start device operation according to projects (sub-devices)
included in Multi-project. More information about Multi-project Wizard is described bellow.
Multi-project Wizard
Multi-project device operation requires Multi-project file, which contains partial sub-projects
associated to sub-devices (chips) of Master device. Multi-project file can be created in Multi-
project Wizard. The Wizard has following main functions:
Select of sub-projects and build final Multi-project file
Load of existing Multi-project file *1
Start device operation of recent Multi-project
*1 Note: Existing Multi-project file can be loaded from main menu of PG4UW using menu File /
Load project or from Multi-project Wizard by Load multi-prj command.
Multi-project Wizard contains following controls:
Button Load multi-prj is used for load of existing Multi-project file.
Button Build Multi-project is used for build of new Multi-project file, which uses projects
listed in table Sub-projects.
Table 1: Sub-projects contains list of projects that are included in recent Multi-project.
Button Add project is used for adding of new project file(s) to list of project files in Table1.
Button Remove project is used for removing of selected project file from list of project files
in Table 1.
