-
Software Installation:Â Download and install the latest version of the dedicated software (e.g., Xgpro) from the manufacturer’s or distributor’s website. This is crucial for accessing the full chip database.
-
Hardware Connection:Â Connect the programmer to your computer’s USB port using the provided cable. The device is powered entirely via USB.
-
Selecting the Chip:
-
Open the software.
-
Use the “Search” or “Select” function to find your target IC. You can search by chip manufacturer, type, or part number (e.g., “ATmega328P”, “W25Q128”).
-
-
Placing the Chip:
-
Lift the lever of the 40-pin ZIF socket.
-
Carefully orient the IC according to the pin-1 diagram printed on the socket.
-
Place the chip into the socket and lock it down by closing the lever.
-
-
Basic Operations:
-
Read:Â Reads the content of the chip and saves it to a file on your computer (.bin for data, .hex for MCUs).
-
Program:Â Load a firmware file (.bin, .hex) from your computer and burn it into the chip. The software will automatically erase, program, and verify the chip.
-
Verify:Â Compares the data on the chip against a file on your computer to check for errors.
-
Erase:Â Clears the content of the chip.
-
-
Adapter Usage (for non-DIP chips):
-
For SMD chips (SOIC, TSSOP, etc.), you will need separate SOIC8, SOIC16, or other adapters.
-
The adapter plugs into the ZIF socket, and the SMD chip is placed on the adapter’s footprint, often secured with a clip.
