Review of
Programming
Concepts
Below is a brief description of the basic concepts involved in
programming a device.
Select Device Before attempting most operations, you must first tell UniSite-xpi what
device you will be working with. UniSite-xpi then selects the appropriate
programming algorithm based on the manufacturer and device part
number selected. Once you have selected a device, you can move on to
other device operations, such as loading, programming, and verifying.
Load Data Load operations determine how you move device data into UniSite-xpi.
You can load data from a device, from one of UniSite-xpi’s internal disk
drives, or from one of the two serial ports on UniSite-xpi (for example,
from the Remote port).
Program Device Programming transfers the device data into the device inserted in
UniSite-xpi. The programming is done according to the programming
algorithm selected by the Select Device command. The programming
operation also includes a verify operation, which is described below.
