IC programming involves loading firmware or data into integrated circuits (ICs), including FPGAs, CPLDs, microcontrollers, and microprocessors. Specialized IC programmers are used to upload the necessary code and data onto these chips. The programmer uses specific software tools to ensure the correct data formats are loaded onto each chipset.
Small, low-power ICs mainly used for logical operations like AND/OR functions, often found in custom machines and decoders.
These ICs contain reconfigurable logic blocks, making them adaptable to various applications. They are ideal for tasks requiring flexibility.
Also known as memory ICs, they function on NAND/NOR flash operations and are typically used for data storage in computers.
These small-scale ICs serve as the CPU in embedded systems, capable of handling a wide range of control and computational tasks.
PCB testing is essential to ensure high-quality products. The key benefits include:
ICs are programmed using specialized sockets before being mounted on a PCB.
ICs are programmed post-assembly, using JTAG pins for direct interfacing.
Used for CPLD and FPGA programming.
Employed for programming microcontrollers via test pins.
ASCII-based format for programming memory-type ICs.
Widely used for industry-standard memory and IC programming.
Robotic systems that automate IC programming, ideal for large-scale production.
Designed for prototype development with moderate production volumes.
Used by large-scale industries for seamless in-house IC programming without physically removing the IC.
Custom solutions for IC maintenance, often used in portable devices.
Outsourcing IC programming reduces costs, making it more affordable compared to in-house development.
Fast data transfers through specialized cables ensure high efficiency.
Automation significantly reduces the time needed for IC programming.

IC programming is the process of loading code onto a microchip to enable it to perform specific tasks.
For prototypes or low-volume production, program ICs after PCB assembly. For mass production, pre-assembly programming is ideal.
IC programming supports scripting languages, HDL, and HVL.
Cost factors include IC type, storage capacity, volume, and marking complexity.
Ready to serve you globally.
