 Overview
 The MP8011A Gang Programming 
				System, in combination with a standard personal computer, is a 
				full featured, high-performance multiple (gang) programming 
				system specific for EPROM-, EEPROM- and FLASH-based 
				microcontrollers. MP8011A supports the concurrent programming of 
				up to eight devices; different device packages can be 
				accommodated through DIP, SDIP, SOIC, PLCC and QFP adapters. 
				MP8011A is a PC-hosted programmer: it communicates with the host 
				PC through the LPT parallel port. The MP8011A hardware has two 
				separate sections: a single, universal and upgradable base unit, 
				ready to support current and future devices, and a number of 
				device-specific programming heads. Blank checking, reading, 
				erasing, programming and verifying operations are supported. 
				MP8011A is ready to support future devices. The upgrade 
				operation for the support of new devices is as simple as 
				downloading new releases of the PC software, always available 
				from SofTec Microsystems' web site, and eventually changing the 
				device-specific programming heads. The modular approach (a 
				general-purpose base unit and dedicated programming heads) 
				represents the best tradeoff between cost and reliability, since 
				it allows users to replace damaged heads at a minimum cost. 
				MP8011A can be operated with a single push-button, the PC being 
				only used to preset essential parameters like device, input 
				file, device options. The MP8011A standard delivery package 
				consists in the main gang programmer unit, external power supply 
				adapter, parallel cable and user's guide. Programming heads can 
				be chosen among the many possible packages to fit user's 
				requirements.
 
 Programming Heads
 
 
					Programming heads 
				are small printed circuit boards which connect to the 
				programming sites on the base unit. Each programming head 
				includes the appropriate socket (DIP, SDIP, SOIC, PLCC or QFP)--and 
				the appropriate electrical connections--for programming a 
				specific device. Each programming head includes a "Good" LED 
				which, at the end of an operation on the device, turns on 
				indicating the operation has been successful.

 The User Interface
 
 
					The MP8011A user 
				interface has two separate windows for editing the code and data 
				memory (if present) of the device to be programmed. An Info 
				panel always displays information about the device to be 
				programmed. Additionally, the status of the programming sites is 
				shown together with the statistics about programmed device. The 
				editing of the Option Byte(s) is simplified through a special 
				dialog box--the Option Bytes dialog box is specific for each 
				device and allows you to edit each single bit (exception made 
				for reserved bits) of the option bytes of the device you are 
				working with. The MP8011A can perform blank checking, erasing, 
				reading, programming and verifying operations. A special 
				operation, the Auto operation, groups the blank checking, 
				erasing, programming and verifying operations in a single 
				operation, speeding up the programming process. All of the 
				operations share a common, simple, easy-to-use dialog box.

 Protected Mode
 Protected Mode simplifies the 
				programming process by means of an easy, guided procedure that 
				requires no special knowledge. Protected Mode is suitable for 
				the programming of a large amount of devices. Entering and 
				exiting the Protected Mode is password protected.
 
 Software Upgrades
 SofTec Microsystems is 
				continuously adding the support for new devices to the MP8011A 
				Gang Programming System. The support for a new device consists 
				typically in the development of a specific programming head and 
				in the release of a new version of the MP8011A user interface. 
				The latest version of the user interface is always available for 
				free at our download page.
