From the comments: EPROM Programmer
Chuck shares his experience programming 1702 EPROMs for the 8008 with an Pro-Log M900 EPROM Programmer: I thought I’d share a little known thing about [the 1702 EPROM]. When you erase most eproms they go to FF and the the process of programming discharges the bits that you want to be ’0′ The 1702 worked […]
Programming PICs with a programmer
A new tutorial covers the basics of programming a PIC with a PIC programmer supported by MPLAB, like a PICkit or ICD. This frequently-requested tutorial is geared towards programming the bootloader into a project like the Bus Pirate. Bootloaders make it easy to upgrade firmware without dragging out (or owning) a programmer. Just activate the […]
