Melexis PTC-04 Programmer for Melexis PTC Devices

Melexis PTC-04 Programmer for Melexis PTC Devices is designed to calibrate the Melexis families of programmable ICs. This programmer is designed to be easily adapted to a standard PC and an application module to allow the calibration of programmable sensor ICs within the operating environment. The PTC-04 programmer contains its programmable power supply and measurement circuitry. Like a standard EEPROM programmer, the PTC-04 adds many features such as 16-bit voltage, current measurement capability, and configuration options that will accommodate users from prototyping directly into production.

An IBM-compatible PC is required (not included) to load software to the programmer and control the programmer's functions. Communication is done through a standard RS-232 null modem cable to a PC's COM port or via USB. The PC requires no custom configuration, allowing the programmer to be used with any PC with a COM port speed of 115.2kbs or a standard USB 1.1 or USB 2.0.
