Chapter 3. How to Write Programs
This chapter describes procedures you need to follow when writing the program.
For details on how to operate the PROM programmer, refer to the user's manual of the PROM
programmer.
3.1 Programming Procedures
Follow the steps (1) to (6) to write the program.
(1) Read the program into the PROM programmer.
(2) Attach the adapter to the PROM programmer. (see 3.2).
(3) Insert the MCU into the adapter. (see 3.3)
(4) Using the PROM programmer's erase check function, check whether data can be written into
the MCU's programming area. *
(5) Write the program into the programming area of the MCU using the PROM programmer. *
(6) Verify the programming area of the MCU using the PROM programmer to check whether the
program has been written into the MCU correctly. *
Notes:
*1 Be sure to set the programming area. Otherwise the mode's shift to the programming mode may
not be performed successfully. The erase check function etc. may not also be performed
completely.
*2 Some PROM programmers perform the steps (4) through (6) automatically.
( 8 / 18 )
3.2 Attaching the Adapter to a PROM Programmer
As shown in Figure 3.1, attach the No. 1 pin of the PCA7402D connector (standard-pitch 28-pin pin-
header mounted) to the No. 1 pin of the IC socket of the PROM programmer.
Be careful when attaching to the PROM programmer because an incorrect
insertion can cause fatal damage to the MCU.
Figure 3.1 Attaching the adapter to a PROM programmer
3.3 Inserting an MCU into the Adapter
(1) For PCA7441
As shown in Figure 3.2, set the slide bar of the IC socket to the right side (marked on the board) and
insert the MCU into the IC socket, with the pin No. 1 of the MCU matched to the pin No. 1 of the IC
socket.
Be careful when attaching to the PROM programmer because an incorrect
insertion can cause fatal damage to the MCU.

(2) For PCA7442FPG02
As shown in Figure 3.3, insert the MCU into the IC socket with the No. 1 pin of the MCU matched
to the No. 1 pin of the IC socket on the PCA7442FPG02.
Be careful when attaching to the PROM programmer because an incorrect
insertion can cause fatal damage to the MCU.
Top view
Figure 3.3 Inserting an MCU (PCA7442FPG02)
(3) For PCA7442SP
As shown in Figure 3.4, insert the MCU into the IC socket with the No. 1 pin of the MCU matched
to the No. 1 pin of the IC socket on the PCA7442SP.
Be careful when attaching to the PROM programmer because an incorrect
insertion can cause fatal damage to the MCU.

CAUTION
Cuation for the Slide Bar of the PCA7441:
• There is a slide bar in the center of the PCA7441. Set this slide bar to the shaded area
(factory-setting). Otherwise the MCU may cause a break because of an electrical
insulation failure.
Caution to Be Taken for Handling an MCU:
• Do not touch the connector in the IC socket and the pins on the PROM programmer
connector. Otherwise it can cause an electrical insulation failure because of dirt.
When not using, attach the connector pins of this product to the conductive sponge
as it was shipped from the factory.
Caution When Opening and Closing the IC Socket:
• When opening and closing the IC socket, hold the adapter horizontally as shown in
Figure 3.5. Otherwise the inside of the IC socket may become damaged and cause
an electrical insulation failure.

3.4 Recommended PROM Programmers
The PROM programmers listed in Table 3.1 are recommended for this product. Using the actual
products, we have verified that these PROM programmers can be used to write programs without
problem. Nonconformity occurring by using any other PROM programmers listed in Table 3.1 can
not be supported. For how to operate the PROM programmer and the latest type of PROM
programmers, contact the manufacturer to confirm whether it can be used for your product.

Contact failure
The PROM programmer connector (28-pin pin-header) at which
the PROM programmer is contacted may be stained. Clean it
with alcohol, etc.
5.2 MCUs Do Not Function Normally
The program operates normally on the emulator, but when the MCU that has normally been written
is attached the same program does not function normally.
(1) In the emulator, NOPs are often inserted in the area where the program has not been read, therefore
the program happens to appear functioning normally even though it may have gone wild. Check
your program again.
(2) The emulator and the actual MCU may differ in characteristics. Consult the user's manual of the
emulation pod to check for differences in characteristics again.
( 15 / 18 )
5.3 Other Precautions
(1) About the Recommended PROM Programmers
Not all PROM programmers available on the market can be checked to see if they function properly.
There are several PROM programmers that we have verified to function properly. These products are
listed as recommended PROM programmers in this user's manual. Other PROM programmers may
also be used providing that you verified them to function properly.
Note: No matter which type of PROM programmer you use, it is necessary to verify completion of
programming by executing screening, etc. that are stipulated for each MCU used.
(2) About Reading Out of Device Identification Code *1
Please do not use the PROM programmer's device identification code readout function.
Using this function may break down the MCU. The device identification code is included in EPROM
to indicate the manufacturer code and device code; it is not included in the MCU.
*1 Depending on PROM programmer manufacturers, this may be referred to by another name (e.g.
ID code).
