1. The ST7 EPB is a programming board kit which allows you to program ST7 microcontrollers having EPROM EEPROM and FLASH memories ss Figure 1 Typical ST7_EPB programming board The layout of the programming board included in your ST7 EPB kit varies depending on the type and package of the ST7 microcontroller you wish to program a typical example is shown in Figure 1 However the general programming procedure explained in this book remains the same for all boards A complete listing of the ST7 family of programming boards with a summary of the devices they support is given in ST7_EPB pdf available on the MCU on CD CD ROM The ST7 EPB is meant to program small numbers of microcontrollers i e prototypes in the development stage For mass production programming it is recommended that you use the appropriate gang programmer The programming board is linked via the parallel port to a host PC running the Windows Epromer software WINEE This software interface allows you to customize and control the programming 5 20 1 Introduction ST7 EPB User Manual 1 2 1 3 6 20 Hardware features A range of programming boards allow you to program all of the EPROM EEPROM and FLASH versions of the ST7 family In Situ Programming ISP is also available for the newer EEPROM devices Software features A host PC running the Windows Epromer software WINEE is the control interface for the ST7 EPB WINEE is a grap2.
