If it is programmable, the first thing you have to do is ensure that the computer you will use to program the chip has the right interface required to connect the chip and transmit to it. Traditionally, chips used to have serial connectors attached to the breadboard, but more recently, USB connectors are used on commercial chips such as the arduino devices. Once the chip is hooked up to the computer and is ready to receive the input, the programmer has to make sure of two things. First, it would be convenient for him to be familiar with a standardized programming language which he could use to write the program of the chip. Then, given he has a preference for a particular language, he needs to ensure that he has the right interpreter software that can communicate directly to the chip by translating the human friendly code into machine code, which basically is a sequence of 0s and 1s. Having the right interpreter is very important as it has to match the language that is being used to write the program. Once these requirements are met, write away!

How can you make a chip and implement it with a software program so that as your program it can work?

To make a chip and implement it with a software program, you need to "burn" the program into the chip before it can work. You must use special chips, called programmable read only memory chips, commonly called PROMs, for this. It also requires special machinery to program the chips.

How does data get on the microchip after manufacturing?

In the case of an EPROM chip - The chip is plugged into an EPROM (Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory) machine. Each microchip has a small amount of memory, and the EPROM machine effectively writes instructions to the chip's memory. These machines usually program large batches of chips at the same time. This set of instructions is permanent unless the chip is re-programmed.


What is EPROM in computer terms?

It stands for Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory. It's basically a computer chip that can have information programmed onto it - which stays on the chip even when the power is turned off (unlike RAM which is erased when you turn the computer off) The EPROM can be re-programmed by erasing the current information and re-writing new information to it.

What is a type of chip from which data can be erased by expoure to ultraviolate light?

A type of PROM (Programmable Read-Only Memory) called EPROM (Eraseable Programmable Read-Only Memory) is a chip that, after being programmed, can be exposed to strong ultraviolet light in order to erase it. They're recognized by the transparent window on the top surface through which you can see the silicon chip. It's through this window that UV enters to erase the chip.
