Has anyone gotten this to work?  I hooked up my Mega to match the sketch and the picture, but I'm still unable to write to the memory of my AT28C256 chip.

Do you have a schematic? I've guestimated wire up by looking at the pictures, but its not working. The Sketch code uses 16 (0-15) address lines, but the AT28C256 only has 15 (A0-A14 and there is no A15). Where does the extra address line hook up to. Ive changed the sketch to ADDRESS_BUS_SIZE variable to 14.

I made one like this as well, it is a great tool for learning these chips. After a while I rebased the code on MEEPROMMER. You have to play around with the cycle times and retry-scheme to speed-up things. The code can get tricky from there. Still it is worth looking at it. https://github.com/mkeller0815/MEEPROMMER

When I got to the point of locking/unlocking ATmel EEPROMs I found some issues with that. I debugged them (there is a problem in MEEPROMMER). I got it to work, but I had a "proper" programmer shipped from China as well and never looked back. They are so much faster, easy to use, and quite cheap.

I just saw "The 8-bit Guy" just unbox exactly the programmer I'm using!

I did something like this before! Pain to do, and I only got it working once :P  Cool to see this on HaD
