Verify
The function compares the content of the buffer to that of the chip. If there is any
discrepancy,
verify failure
message and the address where it started failing will be
displayed in the Message window. For PROM or MCU devices, verification of range
between start and end addresses (specified by you) is available.
Blank Check
The function checks if the device is in blank state. For a ROM or MCU, checking of a
range between a start and end address (specified by you) is possible.
Data Compare
The function compares Buffer and Chip contents and for any discrepancy it finds data
table is generated and store in the BIN directory in the name of the device.cmp. For
example, if the device is AMD 27256, the file name will be 27256.CMP.
Auto
The function executes series of operations in sequence, which should help with repeat
operation.
Blank check
,
Program
, and
Verify
could be included in the function. List of
the functions may be put together using the Edit Auto menu.
For GAL devices it executes the
Erase
function at the beginning and sets the security bits
at the end.
Security
The function applies to PLDs and MCUs equipped with security function. If the security
is set, the data programmed into a chip will not be read correctly.
Note:
Lock
and
Protect
are also names used for the same purpose.
Encryption
The function applies only to some MCU chips with the feature. This will program the
content of the encryption table onto the encryption array of the chip. The content of the
encryption table can be loaded, edited and saved. Once encryption is completed, the data
in the main buffer will be the Exclusive-NORed data with the encryption table.
Message
Result of the operation and any error message is displayed in the message area.
Environment
It displays the selected manufacturer (
MFR
), device name (
Device
), checksum
(
Checksum
) for HEX files, and blow count (
Blow Count
) for JED file, etc.
Chip Start
Input an address of the chip where you would like a selected function of downloading or
uploading to start. This is normally set to zero.
