4. How to Write the Program
This chapter describes how to write programs with a PROM programmer. For details on how to
operate the PROM programmer, refer to the user's manual of the PROM programmer.
4.1 Programming Procedures
Follow procedures (1) to (8) to write programs into the MCU.
(1) Read the program into the PROM programmer. (8000016 offset required.)
(2) Attach the adapter to the PROM programmer. (see Section 4.2)
(3) Set the jumper switch SW1. (see Section 4.3)
(4) Insert the MCU into the adapter. (see Section 4.4)
(5) Specify the programming area of the MCU using the PROM programmer. (see Section 4.6) *
1
(6) Using the PROM programmer's erase check function, check whether data can be written into
the programming area of the MCU. *
2
(7) Write the program into the programming area of the MCU using the PROM programmer. *
(8) Verify the programming area of the MCU using the PROM programmer to check whether the
program is written into the MCU correctly. *
2
Notes:
*1 Be sure to set the programming area. Otherwise the mode's shift to the programming mode
may not be performed successfully. The erase check function etc. may not also be performed
completely.
*2 Some PROM programmers perform the steps (6) through (8) automatically.

4.2 Attaching the Adapter to a PROM Programmer
As shown in Figure 4.1, attach the No. 1 pin of the PCA7402E connector (standard-pitch 32-pin pinheader mounted) to the No. 1 pin of the IC socket of the PROM programmer.
Be careful when attaching to the PROM programmer because incorrect insertion
can cause fatal damage to the MCU.
Figure 4.1 Attaching the adapter to a PROM programmer
4.3 Setting the Jumper Switch
(1) Jumper switch SW1
You can not set the SW1 to "1M". Set this switch to "4M" to use.
For details on the jumper switch setting, see Table 4.1 and Figure 4.2.

Do not change this setting.
( 9 / 16 )
4.4 Inserting an MCU into the Programming Adapter
As shown in Figure 4.3, insert the No. 1 pin of the MCU into the No. 1 pin of the IC socket on the
main unit.
Be careful when inserting the MCU because incorrect insertion can cause fatal
damage to the MCU.
Top view
Figure 4.3 Inserting MCU
When Inserting an MCU:
• When inserting and pulling out the MCU, be sure to keep the IC socket side above
and horizontal.
4.5 Precautions When Handling the Adapter
Do not directly touch the connector in the IC socket and the pins on the PROM programmer
connector, otherwise dirt may cause an electrical insulation failure.
When not using this product, attach the connector pins of this product to the conductive sponge as
it was shipped from the factory.
CAUTION
