that new device support requires the software to be updated and (if necessary) simple
package converter (programming adapter), therefore the ownership costs are
minimized.
Using built-in in-circuit serial programming (ISP) connector, the programmer is able to
program ISP capable chips in circuit.
DATAMAN-848PRO2 provides very competitive price coupled with excellent hardware
design for reliable programming. It has probably best "value for money" programmer in
this class.
DATAMAN-848PRO2 provides very fast programming due to high-speed FPGA driven
hardware and execution of time-critical routines inside of the programmer. At least
programming speed is faster than competitors in this category, for many chips it is much
faster than most competitors. As a result, when used in production this programmer
waits for an operator, and not the other way round.
DATAMAN-848PRO2 provides the two banana jacks, one for ESD wrist strap
connection for easy-to-implement ESD protection and the second one for connection to
ground.
FPGA based totally reconfigurable 48 powerful TTL pindrivers provide
H/L/pull_up/pull_down and read capability for each pin. Advanced pindrivers incorporate
high-quality high-speed circuitry to deliver signals without overshoot or ground bounce
for all supported devices. Pin drivers operate down to 1.8V so you'll be ready to
program the full range of today's advanced low-voltage devices.
DATAMAN-848PRO2 performs on each programming module device insertion test
(wrong or backward position) and contact check (poor contact pin-to-socket) before it
programs each device. These capabilities, supported by overcurrent protection and
signature-byte check help prevent chip damage due to operator error.
DATAMAN-848PRO2 has the selftest capability, which allows the diagnostic part of
software to thoroughly check the health of the each programming module.
DATAMAN-848PRO2 has a built-in protection circuit for eliminating the damage of
programmer and/or programmed device due to environment or operator failure. All ZIF
socket pins of DATAMAN-848PRO2 programmer are protected against ESD up to
15kV.
DATAMAN-848PRO2 performs programming verification at the marginal level of
supply voltage, which, obviously, improves programming yield, and guarantees long
data retention.
Various socket converters are available to handle devices in PLCC, SOIC, PSOP,
SSOP, TSOP, TSSOP, TQFP, QFN (MLF), SDIP, BGA and other packages.
It is important to remember that in most cases new devices require only a software
update because the DATAMAN-848PRO2 is based on the truly universal (DATAMAN-
48PRO2) programmer. With our prompt service you can have new devices added to the
current list within days!
