Can the ICP2(G3) keep the T_VDD output enabled after programming is completed? We need it to continuously supply VDD.
No, ICP2 family programmers always turn off all voltages after programming to prevent hot insertion. However, you can enable power again using specific ICP DLL functions after programming. Preset D/A of Vdd output: Icp2DaVolt(DA_VDD, ) Release RESET pin: Icp2PinState (T_VPP, PIN_Z, &dummy).Note: weak pull-down resistors are always connected (300K for I/Os, 160K for VPP) Turn T_VDD […]
What is a RAM buffer?
Each programmer channel includes a volatile 256-byte RAM buffer that can be used for various purposes, such as temporarily overwriting the non-volatile contents of the environment.
What does Gap Eliminator do?
The Gap Eliminator™ enables end customers to exclude empty (blank) flash and EEPROM areas in the HEX file from the programming process, resulting in shortened production cycles and reduced manufacturing costs. This powerful feature is available for all Softlog System’s programmers
How can a Unique ID be read when operating in standalone mode?
Depending on the MCU part number and manufacturer, specific areas such as the Unique Device ID (UDID) register or Universally Unique Identifier (UUID) may be defined as an information area. Once the start address (any) and size (up to 128 bytes) of the information area are defined, the data from this area is automatically read […]
How can I activate my MCU for programming?
Starting from July-2021 ICP G3 family programmers are activated by device/microcontroller family/algorithm. Please contact sales@softlog.com for details
How can I see the activated families?
Run ICP for Windows, select Options/OEM – Summary of Options/Families, Collect My Firmware IDs and double-click on a channel.
What does the Secure Programming do?
Secure Flash Programming is an optional feature that reduces the risk of intellectual property being pirated during the production process. Using proprietary technology, Softlog System’s Secure Programming protects against piracy at the manufacturing plant. Available with every programmer, Secure Programming introduces several layers of protection for your business-critical intellectual property.
How many target devices can I program simultaneously?
The standard software allows programming of up to 64 target devices simultaneously. If you need to program more than 64 devices at the same time, please contact Softlog Systems at support@softlog.com
