hi, i want a buy a new willem pcb programmer to write succesfully 27C322 27C160 27C400 27C800 eproms for my megadrive games, i still have an old win98 computer with lpt port,db25 printer cables, external 15v 4A power supply,16 bit 42pin adapter ive got software 098 097ja ..
the problem is i dont know what willem hardware pcb which will works well with my project.i use to have a willem pcb 5.0E but i ve never was able to write anything with it it gave me buffer underun each time i want to write a rom on the eprom. so may be changing a version hardware pcb T or C will would be a solution i need your opinions thanks. |

A buffer underrun indicates your setup didn't push data fast enough to the programmer. |

hi anniel
you said setup didnt push data fast to the programmer, so how to fix that by modify twe/twc in the software
or replacing the power supply or what? |

Did you try increasing the buffer size? |

Read your Windows 98 documentation. |

ok i will check that.
sorry i ve got another questions so excuse my ignorance.
why i get hardware not present error when jumper 8 is removed to
start programming the 27C322 eprom which needs 6.25v to be programmed ?
what the difference between willem hardware pcb5.0E pcb5.0T pcb5.0F i want to buy a new willem pcb
programmer so i want to make sure which version will work reliably with 16 bit 42pin eproms like the 27C322

For the differences between each versions ask the seller. Also ask for a supported devices list. |

Does the 6.25V go to the chip? |

Certain about your LPT working correctly? Did you manage to write some other chips? |

i ve tried 3 IEEE cables the thciker,the ones we use for old printers, yes lpt is working properly, i have hardware present when i plug a 12V 3A dc psu i can read a chip verify it but no writing at all, when i keep jumper8 on 5.7v position to start programming the process goes the end but in order to have the green bar i get the error.
when i remove the jumper8 to allow 6.2v since the 27C322 need 6.2v, i get hardware not present as soon as i click on program icon very strange. |

If voltages are good at all times, I can't see why you get that error. |

Are you talking about the programmer or the chip that comes from eBay?
If you want improvement go with a modern programmer.
Simplest is to install the software and check it out. |

im talking about the chinese programmer which i suspect faulty? yes defintely you right modern burner is the way to go. in my case need to burn 27C322 /27C160 /27C400 eproms for megadrive projects, which programmer do you recommend?

I think you have no other choices than Chinese junk or look for an used programmer of good quality. You can maybe repair the defective one you already have. |

hello again i need your expert advices please.
i m about to order the gq-4x+adp054 from datahardware ebay.co.Uk
i made a lot of searches and i found that datahrdware is the official supplier distributor of mcumall products in uk,so all their products are genuine.
the problem is a lot of people have troubles with programming the 27C322/27C160/27C400/27C800 it seems that the programmer was nt reliable what do you think thanks.
