The Word Format window allows you to specify the data format loaded into the buffer. The default setting is Byte format. Word or Double Word format may be selected. For programming into byte- wide chip further selection to byte level is needed.
Byte
Even Word
In the 16 bit word format, selection of Even Word will program only the even data bytes
For example, if the data is; |
| |
buffer address | 00 01 02 | 03 04 05 06 |
buffer data | 01 23 45 67 89 | AB CD |
Result after programming will be; | ||
device address | 00 01 02 | 03 … |
device data | 01 45 89 | CD … |
Odd Word
In the 16 bit word format, selection of Odd Word will program only the odd data bytes
For example, if the data is; |
|
| |
buffer address | 00 01 | 02 | 03 04 05 06 |
buffer data | 01 23 45 67 | 89 | AB CD |
Result after programming will be; | |||
device address | 00 01 | 02 | 03 … |
device data | 23 67 | AB | … |
In the Double Word format, there are four bytes to be selected from
For example, |
|
buffer address 00 01 02 03 04 | 05 06 07 08 09 0A 0B |
buffer data 01 23 45 67 89 | AB CD EF FE DC BA 98 |
Double Word 0 selection will process the data at addresses 00, 04, 08,.. for reading, verifying, and programming, which are 01 89 FE.
Double Word 1selection will process the data at locations 01, 05, 09,..which are 23, AB, DC.
Double Word 2 selection will process the data at locations 02, 06, 0A,.. which are 45, CD, BA,..
Double Word 3 selection will process the data at addresses 03, 07, 0B, which are 67 EF 98.
