DC in a transformer raises the low frequency corner a bit. Obviously not
a problem in your case.
I should point out that every active device Lankford puts in the signal
chain adds noise since the amp is really just a buffer, not an
amplifier. You really want front end gain so that devices afte

Its been a while since I posted those eproms and info.
I need to do 2 things. Look specifically at my models tested and listed and

Yes. We used them many years ago.
They are much more expensive than the write-once plastic packages. For the
chips we were using, it was more than 2x. If you were reasonably sure you
wouldn't need to reprogram them, plastic looke

They did... long long ago.. I havent seen one in a long time.
Ok, i haven't seen a EPROM with window in a nearly as long time either :-)

Joe,
I have not tried it but I could.
I guess I would download the file from Didier's site, program the EEPROM and
give it a shot. It's a 64 KB EPROM going to a 256 KB EPROM. Doesn't sound
right to me.

The text file doesn't mention any particular model numbers, it just
lists "NI", along with others. I want to make sure that the NI
GPIB-232CV-A will work with the other firmware. Has anyone done this
specific model?

Paul,
Have you tried this in an NI GPIB-232CV-A or a GPIB-232CT-A? I have tried
to swap the data between a 232CT-A and a 232CV-A with no joy. The two units
are fundamentally different.
That's why I have the chips.

Hello to the group.
Indeed the prom changes the behavior to a full controller and the ones I
listed were changed and worked. Because those were the units I had found
over the years.
No idea about this particular prom and such.

Joe,
The NI GPIB-232CV-A uses an ST M27C256B-15C1 One Time PROM in a PLCC 32 pin
package. However, a Winbond W27E257 EEPROM is a pin for pin substitute.
The M27C256B and the W27E257 both come in a 28 pin DIP package (0.6 spacing)
so you should be able to use a programmer with that chip support an

Thank you, and the others, for the suggestions for cleaning/reviving the

The text file accompanying the EPROM file on KO4BB's site mentions
using this EPROM image with a NI controller. I have a NI GPIB-232CV-A.
Can I use the image with this controller? If so, I assume that I then
have the equivalent of an IOTECH controller?
