WSON Chip Programming Probe Key benefits - Faster, more accurate alignment: The semi-automatic pin alignment and retractable stopper guide the probe into position quickly and repeatably, reducing setup time and the risk of misaligned contacts. - Easier programming and troubleshooting: Designed to simplify reading and writing of chip firmware, so engineers and technicians can complete programming tasks with fewer errors and less frustration. - Reliable contact with varied chip profiles: The 3D contoured tip matches the shape of WSON packages to ensure consistent electrical contact during programming. What it does - Provides a stable, low-profile interface for connecting programming tools to WSON-packaged chips. - Supports in-circuit read/write operations via common programming and diagnostic equipment. - Combines a retractable stopper and semi-automatic alignment mechanism to hold the probe steady while making contact. Who it’s for - Electronics engineers, hardware developers, and repair technicians who work on surface-mount WSON chips and need a dependable way to access chip pins for firmware programming, verification, or recovery. Compatibility and form - Designed for WSON chip packages and intended for use with standard programming and diagnostic devices. - Low-profile, compact design and 3D-contoured probe tip for precise alignment with WSON chip shapes. - Durable construction for repeated use in bench and field environments. Performance highlights - Semi-automatic pin alignment speeds setup while improving contact accuracy. - Retractable stopper delivers repeatable probe depth and prevents overtravel during connection. - 3D contoured tip reduces slippage and improves electrical contact consistency during read/write cycles. Practical applications - Automotive ECU firmware work: Read or reprogram WSON flash on engine or transmission control units during diagnostics or tuning. - Industrial control board servicing: Access and update firmware on WSON-packaged chips used in PLCs, drives, or industrial motherboards. - Computer and consumer electronics repair: Recover or update firmware on WSON chips on laptop and desktop motherboards or other compact devices. Included functions - Semi-automatic pin alignment mechanism - Retractable stopper for controlled probe engagement - 3D contoured probe tip optimized for WSON chip geometry This probe is a practical tool for professionals who need a compact, reliable way to access WSON chips for programming, verification, and repair without compromising alignment or repeatability.
