Universal Flash Programmer

Universal Flash Programmer

This project aims at developing a flash programmer software supports various of flash chips through various controllers on various platforms.

Currently this project is at an early developing stage.

Pull requests are welcome.

Features

• Controller plugin support. Easy to add new controller support.
• Controller configuration. Supports configuration-specific features (multiple USB interface/drive strength/chip select/...).
• Abstraction Layer: Controller <- -> Interface <- -> Flash device. Easy to add multiple interface support.
• External Flash ID list support. Easy to add new flash without recompiling the project.
• Cross-platform. Supports Windows and Linux.

SPI-NOR Features

• SFDP parsing for new flashes.
• Supports OTP regions.
• Supports non-volatile register modification.
• Supports write-protection modification.

Supported controllers

• WCH CH341 (100KB/s read)
• WCH CH347 (4.9MB/s read)
• FTDI MPSSE chips (FT232H/FT2232H/FT4232H) (3MB/s read)
• FTDI FT4222H (6MB/s read using QSPI)

Supported interfaces

• SPI (Single/Dual/Quad/QPI using SPI-MEM)
• TBD: I2C/Parallel NAND

Supported flash types

• SPI-NOR
• TBD: SPI-NAND/Parallel NAND/24 EEPROM

Supported SPI-NOR flashes

• Winbond
• Microchip/SST
• GigaDevice
• ISSI
• Intel
• TBD: Macronix/XMC/Micron/Spansion/ESMT/EON/...

Build Prerequisites

• libusb
• hidapi-libusb
• json-c

Supported compilers

• MSVC (Windows only. Suggested to use with vcpkg)
• GCC (Windows (mingw) and Linux)
