First we need to know what file types Mike is using. The proposed solution is OK for binary images, but actually in EPROM burning it is more common to have HEX files, which have lines containing an address, a number of bytes, and usually a checksum, all in ASCII HEX. To combine those files, you would just need to cat them together. |

If the OP is using osX I could recommend a little program I use quite a bit - burning EPROMs many times a week - called Synalyze It! Pro. Easy to merge files, do checksums of various levels of complexity and compare binaries. Here is the free version: https://www.synalysis.net/ And I do recommend buying the Pro. I know I don't use all the features... John :-#)# -- (Please post followups or tech inquiries to the USENET newsgroup) John's Jukes Ltd.

If you have access to a Linux system you can do the combining with "dd" (one of many choices but it's straightforward). One way to do this would be dd if=/dev/zero of=combined.bin bs=1 count=8192 dd if=1st.bin of=combined.bin bs=1 seek=0 conv=notrunc dd if=2nd.bin of=combined.bin bs=1 seek=$((0x1000)) conv=notrunc dd if=3rd.bin of=combined.bin bs=1 seek=$((0x1800)) conv=notrunc In plain language - create an 8k-byte file full of zeros, then copy each of the three separate images into it, seeking to the appropriate offset in the file first, and not truncating the file while copying. |

There are clones made, but they are much poorer quality... I ended up ordering 2500 pins from Mouser who had a better price and also showed EOL ordering. That should last me a few years.
