MultiWriter can simultaneously program parts on multi-board panels with 10, 20 or more boards per panel.Īdvantages of On-board Part Programming with the MultiWriter pps MultiWriter ppsis optimized for applications requiring programming of at least 4 parts per board or multi-board panel.
The MultiWriter pps™ on-board gang programming system uses proven, patented simultaneous programming technology to program up to 384 chips simultaneously, up to 16 different types or families - typically in seconds instead of the minutes required by conventional programmers.Ĭompared to other part programming solutions, MultiWriter pps delivers significant speed and cost advantages over conventional in-circuit tester-based programmers when more than four parts already mounted on circuit boards must be programmed in a single pass, making it especially effective for multi-board panels. MultiWriter pps™ On-board Part Programming Overview Since the contents of Phase Change Memory (also known as PCM, PCME, PRAM, PCRAM, and C-RAM) can be lost because of the high temperatures needed to solder the device to a board, on-board programming is required. Programming CPLDs (Complex Programmable Logic Devices) such as serial flash memories and microcontrollers after these parts have been mounted on the printed circuit board.
