I just purchased a GQ-4X and cannot get my chip to ID.

I have checked the pins, I used the TSOP40A adapter plus the address header set to A19, no luck.

I have a TSOP48 holder, is that the issue?

When I ordered my set it told me that the TSOP48 works with TSOP40. If I cannot get the chip to ID then I cannot get it reflashed.

The latest version adapter has build-in 74HC244 driver chip.
see: ADP-082

Write email to support@mcumall.com, your adapter is still under warranty I think if you just bought it.

Every time I check it I get a different ID. I have come up with 8 different IDs on 8 different chips that all read SST39VF080.

If I cannot get the ID, I cannot even start the process to get to a failure in the programming.

How can this be old style? I bought it in 02/2010 from MCUMall.com.

I used a magnifier from the start and checked the pins are clean of solder.

So where do I go from here?

The SST29VF080 is a verified chip on GQ-4X.

It seems you have a old version TSOP40A adapter. But that is not a big problem as long as you use a address header ADP-053.

The TSOP40A base baord comes with a TSOP48 ZIF socket board ADP-077.

If you can not get the correct ID, then you need to check the pin contacting, chip orientation and adapter contacting with programmer.

Use a magnify glass to check if all chip pins are well contacted with the ZIF socket.

Support for this device is very poor. No need to say that the program works with this item. I keep getting 8 different IDs and not a single one is the one for this device. Poor, poor, poor.
