hello, interesting programmer, looking at other programmers that have a button to clean the chip. I think this one should have one too, it happened I was trying to write on some used Eeprom and it gave me a writing error. After much reading here and analyzing, I decided to delete them first with an Arduino that I had on hand and by surprise when I assembled and tested them, they were recorded well. use translator sorry for inconvenience
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Erase is always performed before programming, so a dedicated command is not needed usually.
It is safe to say that if such command was available, a large percentage of users would first erase, then program the device, thus reducing its lifetime unnecessarily.
This may not be an issue with eeproms, but it is with some microcontrollers.
Anyways, if you really want to just erase a device, you can simply program it without first loading a source hex/bin file.
