programming SMD flash memory and SMD flash memory in microcontrollers before PCB assembly

Electronics Forum | Fri Jan 15 05:33:05 EST 2016 | jvercamm

hi, I would like to know if SMD parts (soic, small qfp, large qfp and tsop parts) can be programmed before PCB assembly and, if true, which companies can do this. These parts are either embedded microcontrollers with flash memory, flash memory and

Hi, We have recently moved to flash gold as well, as we had solderability issues with emerson gold, and this was supposed to be a solution. However I did not know flash gold would be thicker, and could have other issues. Is flash gold a stable boar

I have no experience with soldering to a flash gold finish. We have specified ENIG for a prototype PCB order and the supplier is asking us if they can use flash gold. They are telling us that the two are interchangable which I don't believe. The

I tried to clone my cfi-128 flash memory card, but can't get it to boot. I am concerned because I have no backup if the original Flash card stops working. Does anybody have a flash card with Topaz-x VIOS and (MSDOS 6.2) preloaded? I would be looking
