7

DESCRIPTION

9       This is the native binary format of the Stag Prom Programmer.
10
11   Format
12       The  format  is  packet based.  The packet is somposed of an 0x01 byte,
13       the packet payload size (4 bytes, big‐endian), the packet address  size
14       (4  bytes,  big‐endian),  the packet data, and a one‐byte simple sum of
15       the payload data.
16
17       If the packet payload is more than 1024 bytes, there is an intermediate
18       checksum after each 1024th payload pyte.
19
20       The end of file is indicated by a packet with a zero‐length payload.
21
22   Command Line Option
23       This format is specified using the -PPB command line option.
24
25   Size Multiplier
26       In  general,  binary  data  will expand in sized by approximately 1.002
27       times when represented with this format (worse if there are many  short
28       data regions).
