FlashRunner 2.0

SMH is exclusively focused on technology for the programming of microcontrollers and memories: its decennial experience led to the evolution from a simple programming tool to an actual programming system which finalizes and completes FlashRunner’s performance. The production environment continuously seeks efficiency, productivity and quality. These necessities are covered from FlashRunner 2.0 family which, thanks to its high flexibility and universality, offers a complete range of products from 1 to 32 independent and parallel channels.

A complete series of peripheral features allow a deep evolution, which is similar to the changes that have involved the information and communication technology (phone and TV): namely the migration from a simple tool that guarantees its basic function to a complete and interconnected smart system.

Hardware Features

• Easy fixture integration thanks to the compact size: 170 x 83 x 19 mm (without slave board), 170 x 83 x 30 mm (with slave board);
• Independent ISP channels supporting several communication protocols (JTAG, SPI, I2C, BDM, UART…);
• 8 digital I/O lines for each channel, coupled with dedicated ground return lines;
• Two programmable output voltage lines;
• 1 GB on-board Dynamic Memory;
• On-board timekeeper and calendar for time-stamped log file;
• Fast Ethernet interface up to 1 Gbit/s (optoisolated, autocrossing feature);
• USB-UART communication interface (optoisolated);
• Fixture dedicated Control interface for standalone mode (optoisolated);
• Power voltage and current measurement for each channel;
• Integrated control for optional Relay Barrier tool;
• Two 48-pin DIN In-System Programming connectors;
• eMMC and NAND memory support:
• Up to 256 GB storage memory;
• Operation status LEDs for each channel;
• USB communication interface (optoisolated).

8 channels universal, parallel and independent

16 channels universal, parallel
and independent

Software Features

• FlashRunner 2.0 is based on Linux Embedded operating system, which relays on a real time scheduler and a full featured hardware abstraction layer.
• FlashRunner 2.0 is featured with software interfacing libraries which enables customers to achieve a full integration inside their software and across different frameworks, as LabView© and Visual C/C++.
• A new, friendly and interactive GUI (Graphic User Interface) which cut off overall configuration efforts, guiding customers creating a working project in few mouse clicks and detecting mismatches between target device and customer firmware, as well as power supply setup.
