I need to know how to burn my program on the EEPROM 2816
what's the hardware circuit required ?? or from where can I get it??
And , how can I transfer the program to the chip?? i.e; what is the program used to transfer it to the hardware circuit??

    You'll have to do the web searching. Start with any manufacturer of a 2816 and look at their datasheet and look at the application notes they have. There are application notes on programming a 2816 including some sample circuits. There are application notes that show the algorithms used. One general discussion is here.

    In general, it is a huge waste of time and money to build an eprom burner from scratch for one particular eprom. Try Spark Fun for a 'Universal Eprom Burner' that will load data from a file on your PC into the eprom. The big advantage is that you can use this for all sorts of eproms under various conditions and NOT just a one off.

    If that is NOT your cup of tea, a Basic Stamp or a Propeller could be set up to burn an eprom. But it is up to you to understand all and everything involved - that includes providing exactly the right voltages for program, getting the timing right, doing a data verification routine, and so on. It is a bit of a chore, but certainly educational.
