Conitec - Galep-5D - 60-pin Universal Ethernet / USB High-End Programmer |
|
|
|
|
|
|
The GALEP-5D is a state-of-the-art high-speed Universal Programmer designed for both development and high-volume production use. It features a 48-pin Dual-in-Line (DIL) ZIF socket module with 60 universal pin drivers allowing it to support over 10,000 devices. It can also be upgraded to support up to 240 universal pin drivers by purchasing an additional pin-driver module and corresponding Socket Adaptor. The programmer features both Ethernet and USB connectivity to the PC. |

High-Speed Hardware |
|
- GALEP-5D is uncompromisingly designed for speed. The programming algorithms run on an internal 200 MIPS ARM-9 processor under Embedded Linux. The processor directly controls the pin drivers via up to 4 FPGAs, which ensure the perfect adaptation of the components to the programming algorithms. The FPGAs (user-programmable logic) allow the realization of State Machines, UARTs etc. and thus support time-critical components that wouldn't be programmable at all with pure software solutions. The programming cycle times are extremely short, close to the specified mimimum times of the components. The internal 128 MB RAM serves as data storage and allows you to transfer the data only once for programming multiple devices

Universal pin driver circuitry (60 / 120 / 240 drivers) |
|
- A universal pin driver circuit especially designed for GALEP guarantees optimal signal quality for the component to be programmed. Each of the 48 pins carries the following signals: Logical high, adjustable between 1.3V ... 5.0V, Logical input threshold adjustable between 0.5V … 5.0V, Three independent programming voltages up to 25V ground, Three switchable resistors for pullup and pulldown, Adjustable clock rate
-
The switching regulators for the programming voltages are controlled by D/A converters in 100 mV steps. Further D/A converters are used to control the logic levels (1.3V ... 5.0V) and the input threshold (0.5V … 5.0V). All voltages are permanently monitored by an independent coprocessor
-
A universal pin driver concept with as many pins as possible reduces the requirements of adapters and thus ensures an overall low cost programming system

 |
Standalone Mode |
|
- This feature is currently in development and will be available shortly as a free update. It allows using GALEP-5D in mass production without a PC. The programming data can be stored on SD card or on a local server connected via Ethernet. For programming multiple components, several GALEP-5D devices can be controlled simultaneously (cluster- or gang-programming)
|
 |
In System Programming |
|
- The signals for in-system programming (ISP) can be taken from a separately available ISP adapter or directly from the 48-pin ZIF socket. The help system provides information about the wiring of the target system for all supported components
|
 |
Software |
|
- The program runs under Windows 95, 98, ME, NT4, 2000, XP, and Vista. it features a comprehensive set of basic functions such as read, program, compare and delete, along with easy-to-use custom configuration options for any special functions required by the selected component. The editor allows a multitude of functions for editing component contents which can be saved and loaded in binary, intel-hex, motorola-s or jedec file format. Mass production is supported by providing statistics functions and serial number generation
-
JTAG Support: Delete, program and verify components with JTAG interface (joint test action group, IEEE Std. 1149.1 ). The following formats are supported: SVF-Script in XSVF(Xilinx) format; JAM byte code player (ALTERA)
-
The software is permanently improved for supporting new components. If you need a certain device supporting a free Device on Demand Service is available through Conitec. Free updates are available website in monthly intervals.

 |
Security |
|
- Prior to each function, GALEP checks the power consumption, correct positioning, and the contacts of all pins of the selected component. This prevents accidental damage to the component or the device
|
 |
Modules and Adapters |
|
- GALEP-5D comes with a DIL-48 module and programs all components in DIL sockets of up to 48 Pins between 300 … 600 MIL (ca. 7,5 … 16 mm) wide, without additional adapters. All GALEP-4 and GALEP-5 adapters can be used with the DIL-48 module of GALEP-5D
-
An advantage of GALEP-5D is the unique module concept. The DIL Modul can be replaced in seconds with a module for a different socket. Modules for all sockets up to 240 pins are available. e.g. a single QFP-120 GALEP-5D module replaces all 5 Fujitsu QFP-120-adapters for GALEP-4, and additionally can program all other devices in the same socket. When frequently programming components with high pin numbers, this provides a good cost-advantage
