|
|
hello, I am trying to figure out hot to build the com1 type interface to make an eeprom reader for thinkpads. I seen in somer pics in this forum it just requires a com1 socket and a few resistors? is this correct? I only wish to retrieve the passwords form thinkpads. Do I need a max232 chip in the itnerface circuit? Is there a link to a proper schematic?
I seen the breadboard diagram wich looks good but there is no designation of the com1 pins??!!
From what I have read in this forum it seems victor is the man! Its amazing what you have accomplished!
Any help would be greatly appreciated. |

You can find the schematics inside the reader kit.
max232 circuit is better than SIPROG, because SIPROG depends on the COM port current. But SIPROG works and is a fast solution.
If you are a tech and program chips more often, driven circuit is the best choice. |
