Just for clarification purposes... It will program the 2732A eprom, Correct? Just wanted to make sure. It dosn't list it on the web page and the zip file isn't down downloading yet.
Here's one I found a while back that will probably do pretty well for most people. It's simple, easy to make and has instructions to modify it to use with the 2732 (which some of us use for the '7747 and other ECM's.)
Yeah theres a trimpot on the PCB to adjust VPP, but why couldn't you substitute that pot for a fixed resistor? If the tolerance on the vregs is good, you should be able to have a consistent 12.5V VPP, right? Or you can adjust it w/ a DMM everytime you program, PITA.

The programming voltage from the 2732s can vary from 12.5 to 24v. Depends if a A-B-C series of eprom.
Yes, but VPP can't exceed the input voltage. That trimpot is probably a fine adjustment from a 7815 vreg. I couldn't see programming at a higher voltage without altering the power supply. Not that it would be a problem to up the VPP a few volts. Cool circuit, I like it.
Hey all. Just to make sure, the only difference between the 2732/A/B chips is the Vpp signal voltage? So then all 3 are programmed as 2732's, only with the necessary Vpp applied, right? I'm in the process of building one of the DIY reader/burners with mods for hopefully all 27xx chips, so anyone with the Vpp votages necessary for each type PLEASE let me know!! I'll get schematics uploaded ASAP unless I have to tweak the software first. Thanx
Dunno what the 27C32 Vpp is. Most people from what I know just stick with the 2732A. Jameco has them pretty cheap, around $4 a pop or less in quantities of 10.
