Universal Programmer Range
Universal Programmers support all types of memory, microcontrollers and PLD devices. They are usually equiped with a ZIF socket for insertion of the device, either 40 or 48-pin but there are also In System Universal Programmers that program a range of devices, including memory and microcontrollers, in a circuit.
Socket Universal Programmer Ranges
Kanda carry two ranges of universal programmers with 40 or 48-pin ZIF sockets, Wellon and Xeltek. The Wellon programmers are lower cost but Xeltek support more devices. Xeltek programmers are better for larger devices, as they have 100-pin plugins to take socket adapters up to 204TQFP.
Both universal programmer ranges have a wide choice of different cost units that support different devices, including FLASH Memory, EEPROMs plus Programmable Logic, such as CPLD, EPLD, GAL, PEEL, PALCE and more. Many microcontrollers can also be programmed, such as Atmel AT87, AT89, ATmega and ATtiny devices, Intel, Microchip PIC and dsPIC, Motorola, Signetics, Zilog and others.
Lots of socket adapters are also provided for different device package types, and some universal programmers support ISP adapters for in System Programming.

| Wellon Universal Programmers support up to 27,000 devices, and
have a wide range from low cost 40-pin programmers to the top of the range VP-990, which is 48-pin,
and also standalone options. They have comprehensive easy to use software and are all USB based. There is also a dedicated Microchip programmer, for microcrontrollers and serial EEPROMs and some have ISP capability. |
Xeltek universal programmers support up to 45,000 devices in a
variety of packages. They also can be used
in both PC connected and standalone mode. Some units, like SP5000, can be clustered together for fast production
programming and gang programmer versions are also supplied.
A DLL can also be purchased for integration into user systems. A 100-pin expansion module (PEP3000) can be fitted to allow larger pin-count devices to be programmed. |

In System Universal Programmers
Serial EEPROMs, Dataflash and some other serial memories can also be programmed via ISP, in a target circuit.
