NuProgPlus-U8 Universal Gang Programmer and Duplicator (8 Sites)
Replaces the ProgMaster-U8, C8 and S8
The NuProgPlus-U8 programs up to 8 chips at the same time and runs on its own. Load a project file, then work from the LCD and keypad with no PC on the line. The operator only presses Start, so nobody can pick the wrong image file or part number by mistake.
It is the manual-operation model of DediProg’s NuProgPlus series, built on a newly designed FPGA kernel. It programs EEPROM, flash, MCU, eMMC and UFS devices and duplicates eMMC and UFS parts from a master device. It replaced the ProgMaster-U8, C8 and S8, which DediProg moved to end of life in September 2024.
Highlights
- Up to 8 programming sockets, operated manually
- Copy mode and Program mode
- UFS, eMMC, SPI NOR, SPI NAND, parallel NOR and NAND, EEPROM, MCU, CPLD and FPGA
- Built-in SSD for project files, with project download up to 100 MB/s
- Three start modes: Manual, Auto Detection and Handler
- A PC can link several NuProgPlus-U8 units and program on all of them at once
Duplication
- UFS: data, LUN configuration, and descriptors, attributes and flags
- eMMC: boot area, GPP, user area and ExtCSD
- A master device is needed as the data source; RPMB is not duplicated
Production Features
- NAND flash skip-bad-block management and partition files (CSV, DEF, MBN)
- Project files lock the image and part number for each run
- Packages including CSP, BGA, QFN, QFP, SOP, TSOP, SSOP, PLCC and DIP
