Chapter 3. How to Write the Program
This chapter describes procedures you need to follow to write the program.
For details on how to operate the PROM programmer, refer to the user's manual of the PROM
programmer.
3.1 Programming Procedure
Follow the steps (1) to (7) below to write the program into the MCU.
(1) Read the program into the PROM programmer.
(2) Attach the adapter to the IC socket of the PROM programmer. (See Section 3.2)
(3) Insert the MCU into the adapter. (See Section 3.3)
(4) Set the programming area with the PROM programmer. (See Section 3.4)
(5) Check to erase the programming area.*
Using the PROM programmer's erase check function, check whether data can be written into
the MCU's programming area.
(6) Write the program into the programming area of the MCU using the PROM programmer.*
(7) Verify the programming area of the MCU using the PROM programmer to check whether the
program has been written into the MCU correctly.*
Notes:
* 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.
* Some PROM programmers perform the steps (5) through (7) automatically.

3.2 Attaching the Adapter to the PROM Programmer
As shown in Figure 3.1, attach the No. 1 pin of the PCA7402E connector (standard-pitch 32-pin pin-
header 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.

5.2 MCUs Do Not Function Normally
The program operates normally on the emulator, but when the MCU that has normally been written
is attached the same program does not function normally.
(1) Is the offset address specified correctly when copying data into the PROM programmer?
(2) In the emulator, NOPs are often inserted in the area where the program has not been read, therefore
the program happens to appear functioning normally even though it may have gone wild. Check
your program again.
(3) The emulator and the actual MCU may differ in characteristics. Consult the user's manual of the
emulation pod to check for differences in characteristics again.
5.3 Other Precautions
(1) About the Recommended PROM Programmers
Not all PROM programmers available on the market can be checked to see if they function properly.
There are several PROM programmers that we have verified to function properly. These products are
listed as recommended PROM programmers in this user's manual. Other PROM programmers may
also be used providing that you verified them to function properly.
Note: No matter which type of PROM programmer you use, it is necessary to verify completion of
programming by executing screening, etc. that are stipulated for each MCU used.
(2) About Reading Out of Device Identification Code*1
Please do not use the PROM programmer's device identification code readout function.
Using this function may break down the MCU. The device identification code is included in EPROM
to indicate the manufacturer code and device code; it is not included in the MCU.

*
Depending on PROM programmer manufacturers, this may be referred to by another name (e.g.
ID code).
