UDE/MemTool FLASH/OTP Memory Programming Tool
UDE/MemTool is a tool for programming on-chip as well as external FLASH/OTP and EPROM's. It is a customizable and standalone component of Universal Debug Engine (UDE) and it is used in automatic/volume production, test systems or for simple evaluation purposes.

UDE/MemTool comes as add-in for the Universal Debug Engine (UDE) and allows the FLASH/OTP programming during the development cycle inside of UDE. UDE/MemTool is aware of the memory map and runs the programming algorithm when required. UDE/MemTool can be used with a separate frontend also as standalone tool. All programming functions are available via standard COM automation interfaces, too. Using these interfaces, the features of UDE MemTool may be integrated into automatic production and test systems or started via scripts. Additionally UDE/MemTool offers a batch mode and a command line interface for automation purposes.

UDE Gang Programmer can program FLASH memory devices simultaneously to save time and optimize the resource usage in a production environment.

Functions of UDE/MemTool
UDE/MemTool offers the following functions (depending on the type of memory):

• Erasing the entire memory module or selected sectors of the memory module
• Loading Intel Hex and Motorola S-Record files
• Programming all or selected portions of the file into the memory module
• Comparing all or selected portions of the file to the current contents of the memory module
• Read back and save-to-disk of the current memory content
• Setting and Resetting the Chip/Sector Protection if applicable (on-chip only)
• Automatic adaptation of data to be programmed to the smallest memory block size by automatic read
• Support of the single-chip Reset Mode of the new C16x derivatives
• UDE/MemTool can handle more than one memory module and is using on-chip RAM.

Supported Microcontroller with On-chip FLASH/OTP Memories

• C166, ST10Fxx, XC166
• XC2000, XE166
• TriCore
• PowerPC
• ARM7, ARM9, ARM11, Cortex
• SH-2A

Supported External FLASH

• NOR-FLASHs (AMD AM29x, M29x, Intel i28Fx)
• Serial EEPROMs (I2C, SPI)
• NAND-FLASH (on demand)
• Further devices under development or on request.

As communication channels you can use the ASC bootstrap loader, CAN bootstrap loader, CAN in combination with ASC bootstrap loader and JTAG. The standalone MemTool offers additionally the host-target communication via a standard RS232 host interface (COMx). Besides RS232 interface, the usage of the K-Line interface is possible. Possible communication interfaces between the access devices and the host PC are USB2.0 HS, IEEE1394 or Ethernet can be used.

UDE/MemTool GangProgrammer
UDE MemTool can program FLASH memory devices simultaneously for saving time and optimizing the resource usage in production environments. The GangProgrammer utility administrates up to 8 programming stations. The particular access devices (UAD2) can be connected to the host PC via USB, IEEE1394 or Ethernet interfaces, using hub devices. The targets are managed by separate target configurations. This provides maximum flexibility to accommodate customer requirements.

Communication between Host PC and Target

• Target communication via JTAG, CAN and ASC bootstrap loader
• Loading Intel Hex and Motorola S-Record files
• Programming all or selected portions of the file into the memory module
• Automatic adaptation of data to be programmed to the smallest memory block size by automatic read
• Host connection via USB 2.0, IEEE1394, Ethernet
