Individual Keyfob Mini-programmer for ST Microelectronics ST7 Microcontroller

"Press & Go" Field and Production Programmer for ST7 Flash microcontrollers.

To load program code to the keyfob Mini-programmer you need the ST7 Keyfob Starter Kit.

The Keyfob Concept

The keyfob Mini-programmer is a very small, portable, battery-powered programmer that can be used without error by unskilled users.

Once a keyfob Mini-programmer is loaded with a program file, EEPROM data file and/or device type and configuration information it is ready for use. The stored information is transfered with the press of a button to the device to be programmed

As all this information is stored in non-volatile memory, the keyfob Mini-programmer can be stored for long periods and used to program microcontrollers in-system continuously.

Each keyfob Mini-programmer is loaded from a PC using the keyfob Mini-programmer starter kit. You only need one starter kit for as many keyfob Mini-programmers as you like.

If you want to change the programs or settings you are using, just plug the keyfob Mini-programmer back into the starter kit and load it with the new code and device information -- this can be done hundreds of times.

Designing the Keyfob Mini-Programmer Into Your Product

To use a keyfob Mini-programmer to configure your product in the field or on the production line, you just need to add Kanda's industry standard 10-pin IDC box ISP header to your circuit.
