QUICK KEY 57
QUICK KEY
Q-BURN (START)-(END)=(DEST)
QUICK burns a PROM more quickly when it
has only a few locations which require over-
programming. Each address is examined and
skipped if the data matches. EEPROMS are
not chip-erased. QUICK is not always quicker:
if the PROM requires complete programming
or a lot of changes, the usual BURN routine
will be quicker. PROMS which usually program
with QuickPulse or FlashRite Algorithms show
no significant improvement in programming
time - the compare-cycle takes just as long as
programming. However, for making a few byte
changes in a PROM which usually takes a
minute or more to program, QUICK saves time.
