Many years ago, I built a programmer for simple EPROMs. Since that time, I always wanted to build a more generic programmer which can also be used to program EEPROMs, micro controllers and so on. Meanwhile, the hardware is almost finished, and some part of the program the user will use to control the programmer is working: it can read and write EPROMs, GALs and two different types of PIC microntrollers. I plan to upload an overview of the system soon. Currently I am working on building a case for the programmer. The following pictures might give a first impression on how the gadget will look like.

Here are some pictures of the older version of the device programmer, which is meanwhile almost 30 years old:
