PTC-04 - Programmer for Melexis PTC devices

The PTC-04 programmer is an End-of-Line tool designed for efficient and precise calibration of compatible ICs. It also support product development with debugging features. The PTC-04 can be easily adapted to a standard PC and to an application module to allow calibration of programmable sensor ICs within the operating environment.

The PTC-04 contains its own programmable power supply and measurement circuitry. It is similar to a standard EEPROM programmer, but adds many special features such as 16-bit voltage and current measurement capability, and configuration options that will accommodate users from the prototyping phase directly into production.

A PC is required (not included) to load software to the programmer and control the functions of the programmer. Communication is done through a standard RS-232 null modem cable to a COM port of the PC (speed of or 115.2kbs) or via USB (USB 1.1 or USB 2.0 Type A).
