About The Project

The purpose of this board is to allow the programming, reading and verification of writable/rewritable memory devices, such as EPROM, EEPROM, Flash, SRAM, NVRAM – those with parallel bus as well as serial ones (I2C, SPI, Microwire, LPC).

In a future release, programming of some microcontroller families (eg. Microchip PIC, or 8051) may also be supported, via firmware and software upgrade.
