Break MCU IC Firmware will obtain a firmware file include the BINARY or HEXIMAL format, but the firmware file size could be greatly different and sometimes could be different from the flash program memory size of MCU IC which has been break.
There is one cause of MCU IC breaking about PIC16F74, through which we obtain the firmware after break it, but the BINARY file we intend to give to customer has different size:
In the RF2148 programmer, the address of flash program memory is 0000-0FFF after break the MCU IC, the saved file size is 8K;
In the LT48XP programmer, the address of flash program memory is 0000-1FFF after break the MCU IC and the saved file size is 16K;
In the SUPERPRO280U, the address of flash program memory is 0000-4010 but the effective binary bits are from 0000 to 1FFF, after break the MCU IC and the saved file size is 16K;
