Fujitsu and Conitec Present Solution for the Simultaneous Programming of 32 8-bit MCUs
The new MCA-32 Multiboard Adapter saves time and cuts costs in microcontroller board production
(firmenpresse) - Langen, Germany, July 4, 2013 - Fujitsu Semiconductor Europe (FSEU) and Conitec today announced the launch of their new MCA-32 Multiboard Adapter production optimisation solution. Controller programming often presents a bottle-neck in microcontroller board production, since each board needs to be individually hooked up to the programming unit, programmed and then tested. The new MCA-32 Multiboard Adapter permits the simultaneous programming of up to 32 Fujitsu microcontroller boards. These substantial time savings translate into reduced costs for the production process.
MCA-32 can be used in conjunction with any Conitec GALEP-5 programming unit. Once slotted into the programming socket, the adapter is then connected to the ISP ports of up to 32 boards via ribbon cables. The program/read operations are performed via the controller"s 1-wire interface. The system currently supports 8-bit processors of the Fujitsu"s MB95F series. Derivatives of this series are optimised for use in household appliances, small and large electrical appliances and industrial machinery. Supplied in configurations featuring between 20 and 80 pins, they are available both as standard microcontrollers and with specialised functions for controlling motors, LCDs or touch sensors.
The adapter can be switched between multi- and single-channel modes. In single-channel mode, each of the 32 boards can be selected individually for an erase test/read/program. In multi-channel mode, all boards are programmed in parallel. Serial numbers and other data items can be generated individually for each processor - even in multi-channel mode. The result of the programming test plus any component calibration data can be evaluated by using a customer-specific dynamic link library (DLL). Alternatively, the adapter offers a plug for external signals for triggering the programming operation and communicating the pass/fail status.
The MCA-32 Multiboard Adapter is available from Conitec for EUR 280. Ranging from a portable low-cost programming unit to high-end machines for laboratory and production use, the GALEP-5 series of programming units supports more than 60,000 components.
