SEEP is universal programmer of all types serial EEPROM in 8-pin package. SEEP enables programming EEPROM with interface types IIC (24Cxx), Microwire (93Cxx) and SPI (25Cxx). Programmer supports programming LV EEPROM (3.3V). The programmer is equiped by ZIF socket. The quality of programmer is completed by comfortable control program.

SEEP interfaces with standard Personal Computer, AT to Pentium, portable or desktop models. Programmer allows you connecting directly to your PC through any standard parallel (printer) port - no special interface card is needed.

The advantage of SEEP is its easy to use comfortable software with pull down menu, hot keys and on line help. You can select device by classes, by manufacturers or simply type device vendor's name and part number. The standard device operation functions (read, blank check, program, verify) have been completed with some test functions (insertion test). The program facilitates the use of the buffer and files, including automatic file format detection and conversion.

A customer that bought the programmer, can use the following support services:

• Internet update service means, that grifo® mantain the latest version of programmer software on the web page below reported. An Internet update service is your hassle free guarantee that you are doing the highest quality programming on grifo® programmers, at no additional cost.
• Telephone assistance service allows the user in trouble to speak with a grifo® technician and to solve the problems through the obtained on line help.
