I did a EEPROM , reader / programmer in VB a couple of years back ( I
didn't have a choice of languages at the time ) as part of a logger
project. It wouldn't take much to modify it for one of the Tait style
boards ( I did my own board from scratch at the time , it only involves
a 7407 , (3) 3k3 resistors and a 78L05 , gives access to the reset line
plus clk and data ) . Not exactly what you described but it's a starting
point , also have a progam written for a 12C508 to dump data into a
24C65 as part of the same project . If there is any interest I have full
rights , and am willing to put it out under GNU . Anyone need a very low
power data logger ( 1 year on three AA batteries ) ?
I'm thinking it may be time to do a larger programmer project ,
maybe a PIC programmer that starts life as a Tait style , then after
programming a 16F84 , changes to serial communications with the 16F84
handling the time critical stuff ( a plug in cable to the 16F84 socket
for the first bootstrap programming ) , could add the higher and lower
test voltages and a few extra line for doing the EEproms .
