Turbo Software of LabTool-848 become a standard offer

After Feb 1st/2002, all the LabTool-848 shipment will include the turbo software as standard offer, the turbo software is a special driver in the LabTool-848 device selection with F_XXX, following is the screen dump of turbo mode and standard mode device selection example.

Not all the chip can be implement the turbo mode, only limit device has turbo mode capability ( high density as example ) . In generally, Turbo mode has over 200% speed compare to the standard mode, it double the programming throughput .This turbo mode offer has double the value of the LabTool-848 from customer point of view, or it is 20% discount from original price.


LabTool-848 programming speed test report

Customer may need the real programming speed data when survey the gang programmer, AEC has some test data during implement the chip support and would like to share those data with customer and distributor.
