FLX500 is a self-contained, automated device programmer that fits on a desktop. The system will be introduced at Nepcon UK and Semicon Singapore next week.
“Customers constantly share with us the costly problems they have with gang programmers – bent leads, blank devices, incorrectly programmed devices, high levels of scrap – but at the same time they often do not have the facilities, the operators, the time for training, or the physical space required for a sophisticated automated programming system,” said Megan Miller, director of marketing. “The FLX500 offers a solution that drastically reduces the errors and waste inherent in manual programming. The FLX500 is modular and expandable, it supports virtually all device packages, and it is ideally sized to fit almost anywhere.”
Enables ‘plug and program’ automated programming. Touch screen user interface is language independent, eliminating operator training and mistakes. Requires no special installation. Can be plugged into a standard wall outlet. Self-contained air supply eliminates the need for an external air system. Picks devices from tray media, places them in sockets for programming, and returns programmed devices to output trays.
Has FlashCORE precision programming technology, with high-speed programming for leading Flash and serial memory devices, NAND flash and programmable microcontrollers. Supports BGA, mBGA, CSP, PLCC, TSOP, QFP and others, with throughput over 500 devices/hr.
A flexible rental option allows EMS companies, for example, the flexibility needed to meet short-term or volatile contract requirements without a major capital investment.
