WTB: Heathkit ID-4801 EPROM Programmer

Which if you look elsethread you will see is exactly what I had in mind - I never suggested this was a sane thing to do (quite the opposite), just that it was probably possible.

No, I haven't -- I don't quite remember why I wound up going down the PIC path....

I did because, at the time, were the best ones in their class. But with AVRs it's a completely different life, both in assembly and in C.

How is the AVR programmed? PIC's in-circuit programming (three pins plus power and ground need to come to some standard male header strip) is really convenient.

Pretty much the same for AVR.

It uses one more pin, but I guess that uses the same connector (3x2 pin header), unless Microchip did the not very smart mofe of using a 5x1.

Or three less, since the new Debugwire, that can inspect the internal registers and memories by using just he reset pin & GND, can also program the Flash (but not the configuration fuses).

On top of that most AVRs have all the hardware required for bootloader implementation.

LOL. It actually come from a joke about a safari.

The participants bragged about how many lions, gazelles etc. they killed, while one of them only got some Noplis.

- What are Noplis? - asked another hunter.

- Dunno, sort of apes that, when aimed at, scream "noplis, noplis".

To me it looks like some newfangled trademark, say for a Viagra-like drug.

"Noplis, I have a headache."

They actually use 6x1 (with one of the six unused).

Some missionary was speechifying in some village, and at every salient point, the crowd would chant, "Huzzanga! Huzzanga!"

Of course, he assumed they were cheering hin on. (compare "Hooray!")

Well, after his speech, the chieftan takes him on a tour of the village, and says, "Careful, don't step in the huzzanga!"

Cheers! Rich

Not always. Some banks are evil, others are just incompetent.

On the PIC, the same thing applies to memory banks...

F. Bertolazzi - I have found a source for the old parallax eprom emulator software. I won't mention anything about "buying" on here but please send me an email if you would still be willing to part with one or more of them. I've tried sending you email but it keeps bouncing.

Thanks! Tim tim at utlaw dot net
