![]() does anyone have this programmer and know how to use it?,i cant seem to get my head around it!,im messing around with a 24c--- eprom chip to try this machine out but totally lost on how to program it,i got a .bin file which has the firmware on it , but the file seems too big,any ideas?

![]() Sure its a EPROM ? They usually start with 27Cxxxx

![]() the actual one i need to rewrite is SPI Flash eprom 25X32VSIG,i was mucking around with the 24c etc trying to work out this programmer,trouble is i have a .bin file with the firmware on, but the programmer says that the file is too big,so i dont know what file to convert it to, or even how to convert it,and then how to put it into the programmer and get it onto the chip,this is a new avenue for me,so its all a bit vague,

![]() 24c,93c = Serial EEPROM, small, usually used to store configuration information that changes often
25x = Serial FLASH ROM, large, usually used to store ROM images that don't change often W25X32 = 32M-bit = 4 MiB. 24C1024 = 1M-bit = 128KiB 24C02 = 2K-bit = 256 bytes How big is the firmware image? I'm guessing 4MiB from the Serial FLASH part. The biggest Serial EEPROM I can find isn't nearly large enough and a Serial EEPROM won't sub for a Serial FLASH. I'm guessing you're trying this with the most common 24C, the 24C02. This is a 2 kilobit chip containing 256 bytes. Find the size of your parts and the size of your file. The size problem should become obvious. |

![]() the file size is 4,096kb the chip is 25X32VSIG, will look up to find the data sheet in a while to find the size,are these chips available as "blanks"?,im in the uk,as i say the programming side is new to me!

![]() The only chips I can find with the VSIG suffix are by Winbond. To keep the chips straight the manufacturer's initials are often tacked on the front of the part number. In this case:
25X32VSIG -> W25X32VSIG In my GQ-4X: (*) Serial EEPROM -> Winbond -> W25X32VSIG The W25X32VSIG looks like a 200mil SOIC-8W. Do you have the adapter? A SOIC-8 150mil adapter may look the same but won't fit. |

![]() Soldering a SOIC-8 chip may be easy but not so easy that I'd solder it to a board for programming.
If you were a chip or board designer then the write protect pin would be important. Your ezp2010 will be handling that. Look for the erase function in your ezp2010 software. |
