atmels needed

**the_wizzard** · 8th August 2003

i need a couple of atmels off a di 1000 tw box, and 1 off a di 4000t tw box so if anyone has any shagged boxes pm me they need to be working and not erased

as it seems all this talk of wipeing and rewriting them with a willem is bollox cos i have yet to get it to work and willem is supposed to be bringing another tsop adapter out to fix this??(more money) or am i wrong?? have you had any luck writing new f\w to atmels??

has a wee m8 that gets them pre-proged.a member of here aswell so im sure he will respond,or do you just need a spare set and want them for free??? coz free is allways a good thing

**the_wizzard** · 8th August 2003

anything free is nice

but if your m8 gets em re progged is he flashing hex to new atmels? or used ones?

**bigtrevster** · 8th August 2003

i think they are new... nearly 100% sure.i was going to get a few and let a few ppl practise for me,coz im defo not picking it up!!! need flux tho so it may be the problem.

Don't the 4000 boxes use the M29W800AT? The code you've given is for the 29F800 chips, are these compatible?

same spec chip same goes for the 29f400bb (forgot the order code tho )

there both flash 48 pin tsop's

I've been looking on the spec sheets for both these chips. It seems that the 29W800 operates from a 3V supply, whereas the 29F800 operates from a 5V supply. This is why i thought it may cause problems. Has anyone actually put these 29F800 chips in a box which uses a 29W800?
