Quick Start
If two programmers are to be connected to a single PC, then we strongly recommend to
connect each programmer to separate USB 2.0 High speed controller (USB EHCI). For more
information see "Hardware setup" chapter.
Free disk space requirement depends also on used IC device size and number of attached
programming sites. For large devices the required free space on disk will be approximately
1000MB + 2x Device size x number of programming sites attached to this PC.
Very easy indication, if your PC in hardware/software configuration is good enough for the
current software version and current situation with PG4UW/PG4UWMC, is to run Windows
task manager (Ctrl+Alt+Del) and see the performance folder. It have to be max. 80% of CPU
usage at full run of programming system.
Note: For convenience, we suggest that you use a supplementary multi I/O card to provide
an additional printer port (LPT2 for example), in order to avoid sharing the same LPT port
between printer and programmer.

DATAMAN-448PRO2
Introduction
DATAMAN-448PRO2 is very fast universal 4x 48-pindrive concurrent multiprogramming
system designed for high volume production programming with minimal operator effort. The
chips are programmed at near theoretical maximum programming speed.
DATAMAN-448PRO2 consist of four independent isolated universal programming modules,
based on the DATAMAN-48PRO2 programmer hardware. Therefore the sockets can run
asynchronously (concurrent programming mode). Each programming module starts
programming at the moment the chip is detected to be inserted in the socket properly -
independently on the status of other programming modules. It result three programming
modules works while you replace the programmed chip at the fourth.
Modular construction of hardware - the programming modules works independently - allows
for continuing operation when a part of the circuit becomes inoperable. It also makes service
quick and easy.
Hands-free operation: asynchronous and concurrent operation allows a chip to begin
programming immediately upon insertion of a chip. The operator merely removes the finished
chip and inserts a new chip. Operator training is therefore minimized...
DATAMAN-448PRO2 support all kinds of types and silicon technologies of today and
tomorrow programmable devices without family-specific module. You can be sure the next
devices support require the software update and (if necessary) simple package converter
(programming adapter), therefore the ownership cost are minimized.
Using built-in in-circuit serial programming (ISP) connector, the programmer is able to
program ISP capable chips in circuit.
DATAMAN-448PRO2 provide very competitive price coupled with excellent hardware design
for reliable programming. It has probably best "value for money" programmer in this class.
DATAMAN-448PRO2 provide very fast programming due to high-speed FPGA driven
hardware and execution of time-critical routines inside of the programmer. It is at least so fast
than competitors in this category, for many chips much faster than most competitors. As a
result, when used in production this programmer waits for an operator, and not the other way
round.
DATAMAN-448PRO2 interfaces with the IBM PC/compatible, portable or desktop personal
computers through USB (2.0) port.
DATAMAN-448PRO2 provides a banana jack for ESD wrist straps connection to easy-to-
implement the ESD protection control and also other banana jack for earth wire.
FPGA based totally reconfigurable 48 powerful TTL pindrivers provide H/L/pull_up/pull_down
and read capability for each pin of socket. Advanced pindrivers incorporate high-quality high-
speed circuitry to deliver signals without overshoot or ground bounce for all supported
devices. Pin drivers operate down to 1.8V so you'll be ready to program the full range of
today's advanced low-voltage devices.
17

DATAMAN-448PRO2 performs on each programming module device insertion test (wrong
or backward position) and contact check (poor contact pin-to-socket) before it programs
each device. These capabilities, supported by overcurrent protection and signature-byte
check help prevent chip damage due to operator error.
DATAMAN-448PRO2 have the selftest capability, which allows run diagnostic part of
software to thoroughly check the health of the each programming module.
DATAMAN-448PRO2 have a built-in protection circuits for eliminate damage of programmer
and/or programmed device due to environment or operator failure. All ZIF socket pins of
DATAMAN-448PRO2 programmer are protected against ESD up to 15kV.
DATAMAN-448PRO2 perform programming verification at the marginal level of supply
voltage, which, obviously, improves programming yield, and guarantees long data retention.
Various socket converters are available to handle device in PLCC, SOIC, PSOP, SSOP,
TSOP, TSSOP, TQFP, QFN (MLF), SDIP, BGA and other packages.
DATAMAN-448PRO2 programmer is driven by an easy-to-use control program with pull-
down menu, hot keys and on-line help. Selecting of device is performed by its class, by
manufacturer or simply by typing a fragment of vendor name and/or part number.
Standard device-related commands (read, blank check, program, verify, erase) are boosted
by some test functions (insertion test, signature-byte check), and some special functions
(autoincrement, production mode - start immediately after insertion of chip into socket).
All known data formats are supported. Automatic file format detection and conversion during
load of file.
The rich-featured autoincrement function enables to assign individual serial numbers to
each programmed device - or simply increments a serial number, or the function enables to
read serial numbers or any programmed device identification signatures from a file.
The software also provides a lot of information about programmed device. As a special, the
drawings of all available packages, explanation of chip labeling (the meaning of prefixes
and suffixes at the chips) for each supported chip are provided.
The software provide full information for ISP implementation: Description of ISP connector
pins for currently selected chip, recommended target design around in-circuit programmed
chip and other necessary information.
The remote control feature allows PG4UW software to be flow controlled by other
application – either using .BAT file commands or using DLL file. For DATAMAN-448PRO2 is
remote control limited for ISP programming only.
Jam files of JEDEC standard JESD-71 are interpreted by Jam Player. Jam files are
generated by design software which is provided by manufacturer of respective programmable
device. Chips are programmed in ZIF or through ISP connector (IEEE 1149.1 Joint Test
Action Group (JTAG) interface).
18

DATAMAN-448PRO2
VME files are interpreted by VME Player. VME file is a compressed binary variation of SVF
file and contains high-level IEEE 1149.1 bus operations. VME files are generated by design
software which is provided by manufacturer of respective programmable device. Chips are
programmed in ZIF or through ISP connector (IEEE 1149.1 Joint Test Action Group (JTAG)
interface).
Multiple devices are possible to program and test via JTAG chain: JTAG chain (ISP-Jam) or
JTAG chain (ISP-VME).
It is important to remember that in most cases new devices require only a software update
due to the DATAMAN-448PRO2 is truly universal programmer. With our prompt service you
can have new devices can be added to the current list within hours!
Advanced design including protection circuits, original brand components and careful
manufacturing and burning allows us to provide a three-year warranty on parts and labor for
the DATAMAN-448PRO2 (limited 25,000-cycle warranty on ZIF socket).

Manipulation with the programmed device
After selection of desired device for your work, you can insert it into the open ZIF socket (the
lever is up) and close socket (the lever is down). The correct orientation of the programmed
device in ZIF socket is shown on the picture near ZIF socket on the programmer's cover. The
programmed device is necessary to insert into the socket also to remove from the socket
when LED BUSY light off.
Note: Programmer's protection electronics protect the target device and the programmer
itself against either short or long-term power failures and, partly, also against a PC failure.
However, it is not possible to grant the integrity of the target device due to incorrect, user-
selected programming parameters. Target device may be not destroyed by forced interruption
of the control program (reset or switch-off PC), by removing the physical connection to the
programmer, but the content of actually programmed cell may remains undefined. Don't
unplug the target device from the ZIF socket during work with devices (LED BUSY shine).
In-system serial programming by
DATAMAN-448PRO2
Optimized advanced pindriver deliver programming performance without overshoot or ground
bounce for all device technologies. Pin drivers operate down to 1.8V so you'll be ready to
program the full range of today's advanced low- voltage devices.
The ISP programming solution performs programming verification at the marginal level of
supply voltage, which, obviously, improves programming yield, and guarantees long data
retention.
The ISP programming solution provides also the power supply for the target system.
The software provide full information for ISP implementation: Description of ISP connector
