Jidis Posted March 10, 2006 Report Share Posted March 10, 2006 I'd gladly do it, but I'm overseas, so it's probably not worth it.FWIW- I built one of those Willem programmers a couple years ago which has been really fun. It'll do Atmel's, PIC's, all sorts of BIOS flash chips, and the old style 27xx-type EPROMS like you find in a lot of old electronic music gear.I'm sort of pissed now, because he evidently opened up the design recently for commercial use or something, and there's a whole slew of them on eBay for like 35 bucks. I'm sure I paid that much just in parts, and the board was a bit of a hassle at the time. Then, to add insult to injury, they refine it every so often, and those mass produced ones are not only on really nice boards, but some of the designs will have onboard support for more chips (PLCC's and stuff), USB plus the parallel like mine, the parallel's on a regular centronic-type printer jack, the boards are smaller and more rugged looking, and who knows what else. >:(I wasted about two days not long ago, trying to put together a PLCC to DIP32 adapter for that, and I don't even think it worked right. They're quite useful things to have around, especially at that price. It's gotten me out of quite a few jams, and I've had to resort to risky "hot-flashes" and stuff without it, in the past. If you're interested, just check the listings under "Willem".GeorgePS- Double check that chip number in the current support list to make sure. I'd imagine it's in there.

sd2000 Posted March 12, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 Thanks for the offer George, more importantly, thanks for the info.Didn't know about these things and I have a few projects on the go at the moment so this is EXACTLY what I am looking for. Have got one off ebay and am awaiting its delivery.Thanks and regardsS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jidis Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 Good deal! (and I envy you)May end up with one myself, if I keep running into things that need an adapter. >:(BTW- Those F***'ing ZIF sockets alone are like fifteen or twenty bucks!GeorgePS- Anybody know a simple DIY that can read/write a 16C54?
