FLASH Programmer (Out-R-Inn)

The FLASH programmer is designed to seat on top of the bottom board and allow for in-circuit programming of the FLASH memory via a PC serial port.  The programmer is based upon a PIC microcontroller.  With some modification this programmer module could actually be used to program any AMD FLASH memory, since the protocol seems to be roughly the same for programming any of these chips (which is worth noting since this board costs only $20 in parts + board fab).

Version 1.0

A PCB version of the original breadboard programmer.  Works with Bottom V1.2.  Debugging complete.  Only one trace needed to be cut in debugging process to make board operational.
