I need to pick up an eprom programmer asap. I read the threads about people recommending The pocket programmer 3.. supports 2532, 2716, etc.
Also couple people saying the TOP line is okay and can do 2716 and 2532 with an adapter. I am looking at the TOP 3100. It supports a lot more modern chips as well including PIC/AVR microcontrollers.
Anyone have any experience with these brand of programmers? Any other ones I should consider less then $250? I dont want to deal with a DOS programmer. I need windows 7 support. I do a bit of PIC dev so I like they
both support some PIC chips but the top 3100 supports the 17x and 18x PICs.
The PP3 runs $269. I can get the top 3100 for $210.
Thoughts?
Any quirks with either? Can the TOP really burn older stuff?
