Capabilities

	Programming Type
	Your choices are...
	Eraser		The unit is a chip eraser, such as an EPROM or EEPROM eraser.
	In Circuit		The device to be programmed is part of a circuit and is not removed for programming.
	Unmounted Chip		The chip is not mounted on a board.
	Other Programming Type
	Search Logic:		All products with ANY of the selected attributes will be returned as matches. Leaving all boxes unchecked will not limit the search criteria for this question; products with all attribute options will be returned as matches.
	Programming Device
	Your choices are...
	ASIC		Application specific integrated circuits (ASIC) are electronic chips designed for a particular application.
	CMOS		Complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS).
	BPROM		Bipolar programmable read-only memory (BPROM).
	CPLD		Complex programmable logic devices (CPLDs) are integrated circuits (ICs) or chips that application designers configure to implement digital hardware such as mobile phones.
	EEPROM		Electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM) is a type of nonvolatile memory chip used to store semi permanent data such as BIOS. An EEPROM can be erased (using electricity) and reprogrammed directly in the host system without special equipment.
	EPLD		Erasable programmable logic device (EPLD) is a type of PLD that can be erased and reprogrammed.
	EPROM		Erasable programmable read-only memory (EPROM) is a special type of programmable read-only memory (PROM) that can be erased by exposing it to ultraviolet light. Once it is erased, it can be reprogrammed again.
	FLASH		Flash is a form of electrically erasable, programmable, read-only memory (EEPROM) that can be erased and reprogrammed in blocks instead of one byte at a time. Flash memory is non-volatile, which means that it does not need a constant power supply in order to retain data. Flash offers extremely fast access times, low power consumption, and relative immunity to severe shock or vibration. Flash memory chips have a lifespan of approximately 100,000 write cycles - a fact that makes Flash unsuitable for use as computer main memory. Typically, Flash memory chips are used in portable or compact devices such as digital cameras, cell phones, pagers, and scanners. Flash memory chips are also used as solid-state disks in laptops and as memory cards for video game consoles.
	FPGA		Field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) have a different architecture than SPLDs and CPLDs, and typically offer higher capacities. FPGAs are also known as logic cell arrays (LCA) and programmable ASIC (pASIC).
	GALs		Generic array logic (GAL) is a type of PLD.
	Microcontrollers		Microcontrollers are highly integrated chips that contain many components. Typically a CPU, RAM, some form of ROM, I/O ports and timers are included. Unlike general-purpose computers, which also include all of these components, microcontrollers are designed for a specific task - to control a particular system.
	PALs		Programmable array logic (PAL) is a type of PLD.
	PEEL		Programmable electrically erasable logic
	PIC		The PIC series of microcontrollers are a product of the Microchip Technology®.
	PLD		A programmable logic device (PLD) has integrated circuits that can be programmed to perform complex functions. A PLD consists of arrays of AND and OR gates.
	PROM		Programmable read-only memory (PROM) is a memory chip on which data can be written only once.
	Other Programming Device		Other unlisted programming type.
	Search Logic:		All products with ANY of the selected attributes will be returned as matches. Leaving all boxes unchecked will not limit the search criteria for this question; products with all attribute options will be returned as matches.
