Ok an attempt here .. Does anyone knows IF the Windows Source Code for the #Willem #eprom #programmer ever been made public/available ? Given that thing seems defunct since long time ? Does anyone has it ?

DiagROM is diagnostic software that is burned into an EPROM by the user and then replaces the regular Kickstart ROM of an Amiga. A new beta version 2.0 has now been released. Changes:

My Data I/O Unisite universal programmer with Site48HS socket module no longer works. I have an otherwise working 29B but no UniPak. Anyone have a spare UniPak (2B, 2, or original) they'd be willing to part with relatively inexpensively?
I need to program some old memory chips that modern programmers don't support, so a cheap this-century USB EPROM programmer won't help.

New video! Making a single chip Amiga Kickstart switcher and trying out a boot selector for the A600 and A1200.

Now.. what about these EPROMS on the FCU Extender boards? Peeking under the label we can see that these are M27C512 EPROMS and I have tools to read them.

There's also another chip labelled as FCU UT-15, but this turned out to be a PAL (TIBPAL20L8), which would require building custom hardware for dumping (though I already ordered some parts for it).

For now is skipped as the ROM in the CORE CPU board jumper "ON BRD ROM" jumper isn't set.

Achievement unlocked? I am now the "proud" owner of a "Spectroline PE-140T/F" UV EPROM eraser. 😲 😎 And so far four of my 10 EPROMs have been erased successfully. This is a "solid metal" unit not the flimsy plastic stuff from China. But ... I am a LITTLE scared of it. πŸ˜…

And @janbeta will be glad to hear that the timer on this one (a) works and (b) actually switches off the unit. 😬

New video! I'm showing two (and a half) ways of getting the TL866 EPROM programmer to work in Linux.

Does anyone put there have a recommendation for a USB->25 pin serial port cable?

Specifically I have a Stag PP39 EPROM burner which works fine with a DOS program and I want to be able to use it with Linux and the only physical port on the Stag is a 25 pin serial port.

TIA.

Do I have someone in reach in Munich (or close by) who has one of those old UV EPROM eraser thingies? Feel free to #boost for more reach please! #eprom #uv #retrocomputing
