pages before programming a chip. The input of the configuration word can be
divided into several ways:
•
The 8-bit (byte) edit box input
•
The 16-bit (word) edit box input
•
The single choice input (select and deselect, choose one out of two)
•
The multiple choice input (choose one out of many)
The configuration words for chip programming are classified into two categories:
•
If the configuration word contains some protected items, then you cannot
verify the items after preparing the program. When preparing the program,
the programmer automatically shields the protected items and writes the
other items. Select Security or Protection to write the protected items.
NOTE
: If you select
None
as the Protection option, the system does NOT
carry out an operation when performing Security or Protection.
•
In some devices, the configuration words cannot be separated, so the system
does not write the configuration word when preparing the program. To write
the configuration word in these cases, select the corresponding item, such as
Write_Option
.
Some FLASH devices also use the configuration word for the protect
operation and to execute and display the segment protection.
