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.

Generic NAND Features

• Supports ECC plugin to replace NAND's on-die ECC
• Supports Bad Block Table (BBT) plugin
• Supports simple Flash Translation Layer (FTL) plugin
• Supports OTP regions.
• Supports reading unique ID.

SPI-NAND Features

• ONFI parameter page parsing for new flashes.

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)
• Programmer using serprog protocol (860KB/s read using USB FS)
