endrien Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 One user says it will not, I don't believe him. It states it can program 2732 and it doesn't seem to be as cheap/crappy as the others. http://cgi.ebay.ca/Wellon-VP280-VP-280-EEprom-Flash-MCU-Programmer-USB_W0QQitemZ360176005976QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item53dc29b358&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albert Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 I looked at the device list and searched for "2732". That only nets two results: AMD: 2732B Generic: 2732B That doesn't look very promising to me, as 2732 and 2732A parts are much more common. Not sure what the difference is with the 2732B, presumably the programming voltage/speed. I also see 27C32 parts listed, but I rarely come across those. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be fine. ..Al My concern is another user states: Short story NO. This is based off the Willem programmer design based on the specs. They will READ 2732s, 2532s, 2716s, etc. but they are very, very, very unreliable when it comes to programming them. They just don't have enough power to do it. This has been discussed at length, just search for Willem programers and you will see. Save your money and buy a decent programmer. BP Micro 1100 series programmers come up on EBay and EBay.Ca all the time. They will do the job. Willems will work on CMOS EPROMs but when it comes to the old NMOS technology, you might as well program it with a hammer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 Well, if that's the case and you need to program many NMOS EPROMs (which is the case for me), I would avoid that programmer. Especially for 2732s, as 27C32 parts are not very common. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
