In-system-programing (ISP)

JIMMY sayavong

I have question regarding a 8051 based
ISP type processor. Can I used the free
ISP software which can be downloaded from
Philips website such as WinISP or FlashMagic
to program ANY other manufacture 8051
chips (such as Windbond, Atmel etc ..)?

I am tired of having to bring my bulky
programmer wherever I go !!

We are using Winbond 8052 (W87E516) chip.
I am just curios if I can use the softwares
mentioned above to program the chip form
my Windows based PC.

Thanks for your help

    downloaded from Philips website such as WinISP or FlashMagic
    while Philips are one of the most liberal in support (Atmel is freely discussed in the Philips forum) two things go against you:
    1) the ISP download algorithm is different from chip to chip.
    2) I doubt Philips will pay to have their programs updated to handle competitors product.
    3) Winbond make cheap chips, expet cheap support.
