5.1 Flash-IC Socket

tip

In addition to providing the standard burn-in socket, it is also possible to use PowerWriter Flash Socket bom Download and burn the reference design from the page. Adjust the machine according to your own needs. If you have any customized requirements, please contact and feedback to cs@icworkshop.com.

PowerWriter X1 device, support SPI Nor Flash/SPI NAND/I2C EEPROM/Microwire EEPROM Flash chip, because the FLASH burner is relatively unified, at the same time good versatility, In order to improve the stability of programming, PWX1 device can choose a standard Flash burner, the current summary of the burner list reference is as follows:

  • DIP8
  • SOP8-150
    • SOP8-150 : (lead pitch: 1.27mm) / (package width: 3.8mm/150mil)

5.1.1 Suggest

Flash burner is customized for PWX1. When selecting the burner, you only need to select the burner according to the Package of the chip. For example, the Package type of a Flash chip is marked in the manual package type below. The names are called SOIC 208-mil and WSON. When the Flash packaged with SOIC is selected, the burning seat of SOP8-200 can be used for burning. When the chip is WSON 6x5, the burning seat can be used: WSON8-6×5A, and so on.

5.1.2 Usage

5.1.2.1:Socket configuration

PWX1 flash burner, will be combined with a variety of Flash package, compatible with a burner, because different chip pins may be different, so, on the burner, reserve a three-speed dip switch, as shown below, and on the burner for the direction of the switch marked, as shown below:

Take the package of WSON8-6X5 as an example, the default dip switch is all up, when using Microwire's EEPROM (with ORG pin ), the dip switch is all down, you can achieve all WSON8 package Flash chip programming .

5.1.2.1:Connect directly

Flash burner can be directly connected to the burner.

tip

Only when burning Flash chip , can be inserted to avoid IO signal inconsistency, damage to the burner signal IO.

5.1.2.2:Use JTAG wire extension

Use standard 20-PIN JTAG cable to connect the device to the burner for extension.
