 |
Enhanced ESD protection |
|
- All programmer I/O lines are ESD protected
|
 |
Enhanced over-voltage / fault protection |
|
- Driver circuitry features enhanced fault protection
-
+12V and -7V Fault Protection on each programmer I/O pin
-
Driver circuitry is still protected even if the programmer is not supplying controlled power to the Target System
|
 |
Safe to use when Target System is independently powered |
|
- If the power to the Target System is not supplied / controlled by the programmer then it is possible to have ESD and transient conditions on the programmer Vcc and I/O pins when the programmer is not driving the I/O pins.
-
The programmer driver circuit is protected against ESD and over voltage conditions which may occur from the Target System.
-
The programmer / driver circuitry can still be damaged by ESD if the programmer is not powered on when the ESD event happens.
|
 |
User replaceable module minimises production down time |
|
- SFM Module can be replaced on-site in under 10 minutes
-
Simply remove the programmer lid, remove the existing SFM Module and insert the new one
-
Changing the SFM Module fixes most faults where the programmer has been damaged with ESD or over-voltage

What is the purpose of the Special Function Module ? |
|
The Special Function Module contains all the I/O Driver Circuitry which connects the programmer to the Target System. This includes all the I/O Driver IC' and driver transistors.
|
 |
When would I replace the Special Function Module ? |
|
In the event of an over-voltage or ESD problem, it is likely that the Driver Circuity may become faulty. This could be due to a damaged pin on one of the Driver IC's or perhaps one of the drive transistors has become damaged. Rather than trying to fix the entire programmer, it is simpler and quicker just to swap out the Special Function Module.
|
 |
How do I swap the Special Function Module ? |
|
The Special Function Module is located inside the PPM3-MK2 programmer main case. To swap the module, remove the case fixing screws, remove the existing module and replace it with the new one.
