Is it possible to Flash Eprom....

[neolly]

hi

I got a sony CPD-E220 Monitor.You might know sony doesn't even car
on crt monitors.My monitor does'nt work,when it boots it shuts dow
itself(tik sound heared) and the led changes to amber.so i took to
service center,they told the Eprom has been corrupted(even checked wit
in-built diagnosis,no display ).The tech guy quote me pretty hig
price which imo not worthy!.I decided to do some research and do i
myself.this way work out much cheaper

found the eprom chip M24C16BN6
found the software needed @ denom.com

guys,i need some clarifications

First of all,could this be eprom corruption or chip damage?

It is possible and good idea to do this way?any complex work needed?(
got the eprom program in hex format and the chip)

If possible,how to flash them?any specific method needed?

How abt the error rate?if any prob occur for eg:bad flash will it spoi
the monitor?


Thanks in advanc

You need an Eprom programmer such as the one we offer at

And if you're on a budget, something like this

I have one and have been very impressed, it handles every type of memory
chip I've tried.

Keep in mind you'll still need a source for the software that goes on the
eeprom.

Weird, sounds more like a faul causing the PSU to shut down, either that or
it's not detecting (or recieving) the signal from the PC. I think EPROMS are
the last place to look. That service shop might be trying to rip you off.
Get a second opinion.

if ticking, the first circuit to check is horizontal deflection and
then power supply, but if you know nothing about repairs leave it to
profesional engineer.... it can be little thing, but don't have to....
