Arduino Nano AT28C16 Programmer

What is it?

This is an eeprom programmer made for the AT28C16 chips. These chips are used widely in hobby projects and because they are Intel/IBM compatible, they will work as drop-in replacements for old EPROM chips in things like the KIM-1 or Synertek SYM-1.

Why did you make it?

I made this because it is very fiddly to program EEPROM's using breadboard. I wanted the ease of using the Arduino IDE, the compatibility with Ben Eater's eeprom programming software (great video, please watch: Ben Eater's Arduino EEPROM Programmer

It's much easier to slap in your EEPROM, send over a program, and then take it out again using a ZIF socket!

What makes it special?

This programmer, while completely compatible with Ben Eater's design, can be used to send full .bin files to your ROM. Down the line (in the coming week/s) I'll provide a github link to a .bin uploader and special firmware. For the time being, you can use Ben Eater's firmware or make your own to send .bin over serial.
