Willem PRO 4 ISP Programmer

Autopsy:

After ten years of use, i finally decided to replace my old Willem programmer with an updated version of this nice programmer. The Willem PRO 4 ISP.

Willem PRO 4 ISP is the most popular programmer on Europe. Programmer is built on two-sided laminate with metal-plated openings, solder mask complete with description of components.

Willem PRO 4 ISP could be connected into devices directly via ISP (In System Programming) connector.The main advantage of ISP is possibility to program devices directly in place without any need to dismount them. Because of that and high-tech software solutions our programmer is much more useful in various programming tasks. ISP could be powered directly by Willem Programmer or by device’s power supply.

    Hello there… i own one of these too, bought it mainly to revive some old machines (Z80 based) made here in Romania. For now i’m searching for a way to use this on linux (Debian version). Still looking for specifications to this thing. Keep in touch.

    I have found the difference between 24CXX and 24LCxx :
    LC – Medium power CMOS (2.5V to 5.5V)
    C – Standard power CMOS (4.5V to 5.5V)

    I saw on youtube that someone could read onboard eprom and i guess i may read eeprom onboard like him.could you help me?

    Salve, io posseggo la versione uguale identica a questa dell’articolo tranne che per un particolare, non ha la porta ISP, ora secondo me le differenze saranno minime ma qualcuno potrebbe postare le foto ad alta risoluzione fronte e restro del pc, oppure se qualcuno conosce come aggiungere la porta isp?
