The software indicated how to place the chip on the programmer ZIF.
There is a pin one marking(dot) on the chip and it should face to left-top.

also, clean up the pin and use a slow speed.

Use lower speed and try to read and write again.

Make sure the pin 1 orientation and pin contacting are no problem.

Hi

Also have this problem with ST93c66 eeprom microwire.

GQ-4x never does a good read or write on these.
i use other programmer to read and write to this chip.

Can this issue be adressed with the next update please?

Thanks

Pierre
