ASSET InterTech is the world leader in Manufacturing Test and Hardware Debug Solutions for processor-based boards.
MicroMaster has a built-in Flash Programming utility, which is shown in the screen shot below. This utility supports a wide range of flash device types. Either the full flash device, or specific sectors can be programmed from an image file. Flash can be verified, and the contents of a known-good flash can be copied to a file for use in programming other flash devices.
MicroMaster Fast Flash Programming is an alternative to the standard Flash Programming function provided in the Interactive mode of the Test Toolkit software. Fast Flash Programming offers significant speed increases for certain processor types.
Depending on the type of flash and the way it is implemented on the board, programming times can be less than 10 seconds per megabyte.
Processor types currently supported by the Fast Flash Programming feature are:
The Fast Flash Programming feature is more suited to board manufacture and high volume firmware upgrades because the user needs to develop a relatively simple, flash-specific programming algorithm in assembly language and a short MicroMaster test script. However, the time and cost saved in manufacturing far out-weighs the program development effort.
For a full description of the Fast Flash Programming feature, please see Application Note #9.
