Gang Programmer For Renesas R5F2127X Family
Support for the Renesas R5F2127X family is now available on the
fxRAPIDO, M9000 and L9000 gang programmers using the PL521 socket
module. The photo shows the M9000 programmer fitted with one PL521
socket module and a PL300 socket module for DIL parts eproms & flash.
Each PL521 has two high quality clamshell sockets and, as usual,
one or two socket modules can be fitted. With two PL521s, four
pieces can be gang programmed.
The user can specify whether the user and/or data flash sections
are to be programmed. Once set up, these settings are remembered by
the programmer.
These programmers are fitted with LCDs and keyboards making them
ideal for production as no controlling PC is needed.
Master data can be read from a device or downloaded from a PC if
required. Master data can even be stored in an eprom and read on
the PL300 socket module.
If required, devices can be erased before programming. There is
also an option to automatically secure devices after programming.
There are over 100 different socket modules available for these
gang programmers which support eproms, flash and microcontrollers from
companies such as Intel, Atmel, Freescale, Microchip (PICs), etc.
The fxRAPIDO programmer can gang program four R5F21275s including
user and data flash in about 10 seconds while the M9000 takes about
33 seconds. All times include blank check, program and verify.
