PN-UWG25-LCMXO2-1200

Programming Adapters and Sockets have long been used to make digital circuitry more accessible in order to study, develop, and debug applications, and the type of adapter used can vary depending on the complexity of the circuit being modified. One such type of adapter is the PN-UWG25-LCMXO2-1200, and this article will explore the application field and working principle of this programming adapter.

The Application Field of PN-UWG25-LCMXO2-1200

The PN-UWG25-LCMXO2-1200 is an in-system programmer (ISP) adapter designed for use with the AMD/ATI™ series of micro-controllers and LogicBlock™ series of logic cells. This type of programmer is specifically designed for devices with very low power requirements and/or limited space, as it eliminates the need for complex software to program the device. The PN-UWG25-LCMXO2-1200 is also capable of programming several different types of devices, including but not limited to logic cells up to 8 bits in size, volatile memory devices, and EPROMs. The programmer also has built-in logic to support the Intel x86 processor, allowing for easy device programming with common tools such as the Atmel AVR Studio.

In addition to programming devices, the PN-UWG25-LCMXO2-1200 is also often used for debugging purposes. It is equipped with an Ethernet port, which can be used to connect to a computer for debugging, as well as a USB port for downloading data and programming instructions. The adapter also includes an On-Chip Debugging (OCD) feature, which can be used to access the device\'s internal signals and memory for debugging purposes. The adapter also includes a 5-pin jumper for connecting external logic or supplemental power sources, making it extremely versatile in troubleshooting and development.

The Working Principle of PN-UWG25-LCMXO2-1200

The PN-UWG25-LCMXO2-1200 is a serial programming gateway which allows the user to accurately program logic chips in a cost-effective manner. To understand how the programming works, it is first important to understand the different types of signals which are sent to and from the device. The first type of signal is the "Settings Register" which is used to configure various parameters such as the clock rate, voltage, and functionality of the chip. Once the chip is configured, the next type of signal is the programming data. This is the actual data which is written to the chip, and can consist of user-defined instructions, configuration data, or operational parameters.

Once both the Settings Register and the programming data are sent to the device, the PN-UWG25-LCMXO2-1200 then begins to apply programming voltage and clock signals to the device. The programming voltage is used to program a logic cell while the clock signal synchronizes the operation of the logic cell. During this process, the programmer checks the logic cells internal state to ensure that the programming was successful before it completes the programming process. Finally, the programmer will check the programming data to verify that all of the settings and data was written correctly to the device.

In summary, the PN-UWG25-LCMXO2-1200 is a versatile and cost-effective programming gateway for AMD/ATI™ series of micro-controllers and LogicBlock™ series of logic cells. Not only is it capable of programming a variety of devices, but it can also be used for debugging and troubleshooting applications. By understanding the working principle of how the programming process works, it is easier to understand how this adapter works and why it is so popular in programming and debugging applications.
