2：Versions Differences

Currently there are two versions of the adapter board, the main difference is that the new version has more 5V pins than the old version, as shown in the following figure. It should be noted that the new version of the adapter board is suitable for 1.3 and 1.4 hardware version of the programmer, that is, PW200 or PW300; the old version of the adapter board is suitable for 1.2 hardware version of the programmer below. If you use the old adapter boards for 1.3 or 1.4 hardware versions, there is a risk of shorting 5V and GND, so be careful.

In addition, the PowerWriter® interface definition can be viewed through the PowerWriter® software menu bar, Tools, to confirm the specific hardware version information of the programmer.
