Parallel Programming
22.7.1
Enter Programming Mode
The following algorithm puts the device in parallel programming mode:
1.
Apply 4.5 - 5.5V between V
CC
and GND.
2.
Set RESET to “0” and toggle XTAL1 at least six times.
3.
Set the Prog_enable pins listed in
Table 22-10 on page 172
to “0000” and wait at least
100 ns.
4.
Apply 11.5 - 12.5V to RESET. Any activity on Prog_enable pins within 100 ns after +12V
has been applied to RESET, will cause the device to fail entering programming mode.
5.
Wait at least 50 µs before sending a new command.
22.7.2
Considerations for Efficient Programming
The loaded command and address are retained in the device during programming. For efficient
programming, the following should be considered.
• The command needs only be loaded once when writing or reading multiple memory locations.
• Skip writing the data value 0xFF, that is the contents of the entire EEPROM (unless the
EESAVE Fuse is programmed) and Flash after a Chip Erase.
• Address high byte needs only be loaded before programming or reading a new 256 word
window in Flash or 256 byte EEPROM. This consideration also applies to Signature bytes
reading.
