FlashPRO-II: Advanced Flash Memory Engineering Programmer | Product Overview Intel's FlashPRO-II advanced engineering programmer system provides system designers with an extremely fast prototyping tool supporting the full line of Intel Flash memories.FlashPRO-II is a significant enhancement to its predecessor, FlashPRO. FlashPRO-II adds the ability to: - Support logic levels below 5V
- Program devices at near theoretical performance
- Support all TSOP leadcounts via a single socket module
New devices are supported upon their introduction via software upgrades posted on Intel's World Wide Web site and Application Support BBS. Socket modules are sold separately; you only buy what you need. This keeps your cost down, while allowing Intel to provide quick-turn support for future devices. Product Description FlashPRO-II is a high performance engineering programmer. It attaches to a standard parallel port, and as such, saves cost by using some of the PC's resources. FlashPRO-II enables system designers to program and erase all Intel Flash memory devices. User-selectable block locking/unlocking support is available for devices having that functionality. Support for a particular device requires use of a separately-available socket module (please see ordering information). Family module boards come with the base tool and are another integral part of the system. They keep costs down by routing power and ground for different device families via inexpensive circuit boards with SIMM-like connector edges. The included user's manual provides information on supported file formats, system requirements, menu commands, status and settings displays, buffer editor usage, macro file (FLSHPRO2.INI) usage, troubleshooting, and technical support contacts. The FLSHPRO2 graphical interface is very user friendly. Current FlashPRO and D, FLASHEVAL users will enjoy its similarity, providing a near-zero learning curve. On-line help guides users through the tool's extensive capabilities without their having to access instruction manuals. Because of its intuitive menu structure and on-line help, even new users will be programming quickly. Product Highlights
