Dediprog NuProg-E2 Engineering UFS- und emmC-Programmierer

Can the NuProg-E2 work with the dedicated file formats for eMMC and UFS?

Yes. The NuProg-E2 is designed to handle not only standard binary formats such as BIN, HEX, S19 and JEDEC, but also dedicated file structures used in eMMC and UFS workflows. For eMMC, it supports raw partition images, boot partitions (BOOT0/BOOT1), RPMB data, and extCSD configuration handling. For UFS, it can work with Logical Unit (LUN) images, descriptors, attributes and RPMB authentication data. The NuProg-E2 software can also interpret scatter files and project configurations used in mobile SoC platforms, allowing engineers to align binaries with specific partitions accurately. This makes it highly suitable for both low-level device bring-up and secure provisioning tasks.

What type of binary file formats can the NuProg-E2 software understand?

The NuProg-E2 software supports a wide range of binary file formats used in embedded development and production. These include standard raw binary (.bin), Intel HEX, Motorola S-record (.s19, .srec), and JEDEC files for programmable devices. This flexibility ensures engineers can work seamlessly with firmware images, bootloaders and configuration data across different semiconductor vendors.

Why should engineers choose the NuProg-E2 over higher-end automated programmers?

For engineers focused on design, validation and small-scale pre-production, the NuProg-E2 delivers the same advanced UFS and eMMC feature access as much more expensive production platforms, but in a cost-effective and portable unit. It balances capability with practicality for lab environments.

Does the NuProg-E2 support both legacy and next-generation memory technologies?

Yes. It supports traditional NOR/NAND flash and EEPROM devices, while also covering modern storage standards such as UFS 2.0–3.1 and eMMC 4.4–5.1. This ensures engineers can use a single tool across multiple generations of technology.

How fast is programming with the NuProg-E2?

The NuProg-E2 uses a high-performance FPGA core and USB 3.0 SuperSpeed connection. This combination ensures rapid read/write throughput, minimising cycle times while maintaining accuracy and data integrity.

Is the NuProg-E2 suitable for production use or only for engineering?

The NuProg-E2 is optimised for engineering development. However, its project files and socket adapters are compatible with Dediprog’s NuProgPlus series, which is a scalable gang programming system. This compatibility makes it straightforward to transition from R&D to volume production without re-qualifying tools.

Can the NuProg-E2 configure Logical Unit Numbers (LUNs) on UFS devices?

Yes. The NuProg-E2 allows engineers to read and configure UFS descriptors, attributes and flags, enabling full LUN management. This is a key advantage over many high-cost general-purpose programmers that do not expose low-level UFS configuration.

Does the NuProg-E2 support Replay Protected Memory Block (RPMB) partitions?

Yes. The NuProg-E2 provides full support for RPMB access, allowing engineers to initialise, test and verify secure areas of eMMC and UFS devices. This is particularly useful for security provisioning in embedded applications.

How does the NuProg-E2 differ from more expensive automated programming systems?

Compared with high-end production systems such as BPM Microsystems’ BPM310, the NuProg-E2 offers equivalent UFS/eMMC protocol access and reliability, but in a compact bench-top form factor optimised for engineers. It delivers excellent engineering functionality without the additional cost and complexity of automated handlers.

What is the Dediprog NuProg-E2 UFS and eMMC programmer used for?

The Dediprog NuProg-E2 is a professional engineering programmer designed to read, write and verify UFS, UMCP, eMMC and eMCP memory devices, as well as MCUs, FPGAs, CPLDs and flash devices. It provides engineers with fine-grained control over partitions, RPMB and descriptors, making it essential for product development and secure device provisioning.

Which device types does the Dediprog NuProg-E2 support?

The NuProg-E2 supports a wide range of devices including UFS (v2.0 to v4.0), eMMC/eMCP, MCU, SPI Flash, Parallel NOR/NAND, EEPROM, CPLDs and FPGAs. Its broad coverage makes it suitable for design engineers who require versatility in R&D and testing.

What is the Dediprog NuProg-E2?

The Dediprog NuProg-E2 is an engineering universal programmer designed for high-speed programming of UFS, eMMC/eMCP, MCU, SPI-NOR/NAND, Parallel NOR/NAND, EEPROM, CPLD and FPGA devices. It is compact, FPGA-based and integrates with the NuProgPlus ecosystem for scalable production use.
