    Programmer – Target I/O Signals

    The ISPnano features the following programmable signal lines which interface the programmer and the Target IC(s) to be programmed on the Target System:
    • 5 x Programmable Input / Output lines
    • 1 x Programmable Output only line

    • Multiplexed 2-wire interface Port supporting:
       - I2C Port (Two Wire Interface)
       - XMEGA PDI Port (DATA & CLOCK)
       - ATtiny
    TPI (DATA & CLOCK)

    • 1 x Dedicated RESET pin with user-defineable push-pull control
    • 
    1 x Programmable 32.771 kHz Oscillator Output for Oscillator Calibration on Programmer I/O1 pin
    • Each I/O signal line is independently switched to / galvanically isolated from the Target System using a high-quality relay under programmer control.

    Galvanic isolation of programming and power signals

    The ISPnano Series III ATE features an in-built 'Relay Switching Card' which allows the programmer to automatically switch all ISP I/O signal and power lines from the Target System either to the programmer Line Driver Circuitry or to an external ATE or ICT system.

    • Each ISP signal I/O line is independently switched via a high quality gold-plated signal relay
    • All power lines (Target Vcc, Target Vpp and GROUND) are independently switched via relays.
    • The ATE / ICT is routed to the Target system by default and the programmer is completely isolated.
    • When a programming operation starts, the Target System ISP I/O and power signals  are automatically switched to the programmer and the ATE / ICT is then completely isolated from the programmer.
    • At the end of a programming operation, the Target System is automatically re-connected to the ATE / ICT.

The programmer can be triggered to start a programming sequence using any of the following methods:

    [START] button on front panel
    4-wire TTL Remote control Port (Ideal for ATE Remote Control)
