Is it true that some programmers require the hex file records to be arranged in ascending order according to their addresses? I faced a problem with a programmer, the software stopped writing to the chip at a certain line and gave an error. There was no problem with the hex file ( I used a simulator which takes the hex file as input, and it worked properly) Thanx..
The programmer automatically detects the chip and its type. Which programmer? Does it come back and tell you which chip (it thinks) it is programming? I have found that the most unreliable thing about programming uCs is reading the device ID, I guess I click 'ignore' on "wrong device ID' one time out of 3. Erik
