Flash programming is experiencing a new level of importance with increasingly complex technologies. Whereas in the past it was only part of in-circuit testing (ICT), flash programming is now so complex that it has developed into a production step in its own right. Since flash programming is a highly technical process, it requires the right know-how. However, with experts like ProMik, customers are ideally equipped. With flexible programming devices and software as well as comprehensive security thanks to ProMik's cyber security solutions, customers can easily implement even high volumes of complex applications.
Flash Programming Production: Use CaseIn the production chain, flash programming usually follows the assembly of the PCB. In this case, it is referred to as on-board programming. This means that the components of the PCB are not exposed to any risk with regard to test procedures such as X-raying or soldering, which means that data retention remains unaffected. The programming device is connected between the computer and the application. The flash process can be controlled using the programming software, which runs on the computer. In-system programmers allow flexibility with regard to reprogramming, maximum performance and low programming speeds. An example of the flash programming of a high-tech innovation is shown on the right. Two programmers were used for the telematics system - the XDM-USB and MSP2100Net. The MCUs were programmed via various interfaces. This included the programming of a ProMik bootloader and a software update of the NXP i.MX6
