The GangStar-Pro is a PC parallel-port-based gang programmer. It features 8 pcs fully isolated 48-pin ZIF sockets, extremely high throughput, standard 5V and 3V chip support, device insertion and continuity check. With PC-based design the device update through software gives customer more flexible and quick access to the new chip support. The GangStar-Pro supports EPROM, EEPROM, FLASH in the introduction. Future software update will include 87C5x, 89C5x , and PIC16Cxx microprocessor.

The GangStar-Pro has flexible design. If customer has special chips that not in our standard support list, we provide a special program that allow the GangStar-Pro become a customize special chip production gang programmer.
Universal Adapter for Flash chips
The GangStar-Pro is designed to meet your future need of high density flash chips, it uses PC’s resource to support 32k-bit up to 256M-bit memory chips without upgrade the hardware. The GangStar-Pro also provides 48-pin TSOP, 44-pin PSOP, 40-pin TSOP, and 32-pin TSOP universal adapters for all the flash chips which eliminates the need to purchase multiple adapters and saves money.
Unbeatable speed through semi-concurrent programming technology
The GangStar-Pro’s on-board intelligence reduces the system’s overhead. It programs 8 pcs of 8Mb flash chips (Intel 28F800B3) within 45 seconds. An experienced operator can program thousands of high density chips per day. Further more, with the semi-concurrent programming capability, you can divide the 8 sockets into two groups and program one group of 4 chips while removing or inserting the chips of the other group simultaneously.

Fully isolated ZIF socket
Each socket’s address, data bus, control lines, power supply and programming voltage of GangStar-Pro are isolated (> 1M ohm). Besides, each socket has independent build-in Vcc and Vpp current limit circuitry. A defective device will not affect the programming integrity of other devices.
Devices insertion and continuity checks-No mistakes!
The GangStar-Pro performs device insertion and continuity checking before program each device. It can detect poor pin contact, device insertion of wrong position and pin number mismatch. This function prevents the damage of expensive chip due to operator’s mistake.
Auto-sensing and self programming
The GangStar-Pro has implemented a patented technology: after the chips are put into the ZIF sockets, GangStar-Pro will check if the chips are inserted properly and have good contact. The system has an adjustable timer so that if the poor insertion is not fixed in time, GangStar-Pro will shutdown the socket of poor contact socket and program the rest of chips automatically.
Project file "Save and Load"
Customer can save a project file which contains the device selection, buffer data and all programming option settings. The project file can be loaded at any time for future use. Engineer's design and settings can easily pass to production department without mistake.
Variable VCC with one or two-pass verification
The GangStar-Pro allow you to set the verifying voltage, e.g.,Vcc +/- 5%, Vcc+/- 10%, after chips are programmed. Vcc voltage can be 2 Volts to 7.5 Volts. The data retention is promised with this feature.
