What is Flash Programming?

Flash programming is a non-volatile programming process in which the (NOR/ NAND) flash memory (eMMC, UFS) is programmed. This allows components (e.g. microcontrollers) to receive and store a program. Only then can the program be executed on the component.

The advantages of flash programming are therefore evident: since it is a non-volatile process, the stored data on the component is saved even if the supply current to the programmed component is switched off. This means that as soon as the power is reconnected, the MCU, memory, etc. can execute the program as usual. Compared to other non-volatile processes, flash programming has the advantage of being reprogrammable. This provides greater flexibility in case of short-term changes.

Flash Programming – Process

Flash programming can either be done via test pads or end-of-line with a plug-in connector. 

For this purpose, the hardware of the device is configured, the memory is initialized and the programming environment is prepared. In the case of in-system programming (ISP), the MCU for the flash does not have to be removed from the application, but can be programmed directly in the device. A programmer is used for this, which can transfer the firmware or software directly to the memory of the device. Depending on the type of memory and other requirements, this is done using various methods such as Fowler Nordheim Tunneling or Hot Carrier Injection.

Once programming is complete, the device is tested.
