Isolation Board for SF600/SF600 Plus
The SF600-ISO-Board-2 is designed to minimise cable-based interference and protect against ground loop damage when Dediprog SF600 and SF600 Plus programmers are directly attached to a target motherboard for SPI Flash in-system programming. This robust isolator sits between the programmer and the device cable, maintaining reliable motherboard boot operation and preventing costly damage to both programmer and target board in high-noise engineering test setups.
Ground Loop Protection
Ground loops occur when multiple ground paths exist between programmer and target, creating circulating currents that can damage sensitive components. The SF600-ISO-Board-2 breaks these hazardous current paths whilst maintaining signal integrity, safeguarding expensive equipment in industrial and lab environments where multiple power supplies and test instruments share common grounds.
Pinout and Wiring Quick-Start
| Signal Name | Pin | Connection |
|---|---|---|
| VCC | 1 | Target Board Power |
| SPI_CS | 2 | Chip Select |
| SPI_CLK | 3 | SPI Clock |
| SPI_MOSI | 4 | Data In |
| SPI_MISO | 5 | Data Out |
| GND | 6 | Ground (Isolated) |
To use, insert the isolation board between the SF600/SF600 Plus programmer and your target system's cable. Ground isolation prevents damage from potential differences between programmer and target grounds. Application Example
Fit SF600-ISO-Board-2 between the programmer and your target for improved stability when flashing SPI memories, reducing risk of failed boots caused by signal reflections or ground loops common in long cable runs and multi-instrument test benches.
Ready-to-Run Code
No special configuration required. Use your existing Dediprog SF600/SF600 Plus utility as normal. The isolation board provides transparent protection. | General Information | |

Frequently Asked Questions
Have a Question?
-
Are replacement cables required?
No. Use your standard Dediprog ISP cables with the isolation board inserted inline.
-
What symptoms indicate I need an isolation board?
Failed boots, intermittent programming errors, or visible damage to programmer or target ground pins suggest ground loop issues.
-
Does it protect against voltage spikes and ESD?
Whilst it mitigates ground loop currents and transient interference, it does not substitute dedicated voltage or ESD protection circuits.
-
Can I use the SF600-ISO-Board-2 with non-Dediprog programmers?
This accessory is optimised for Dediprog SF600 series. Compatibility with other brands is not guaranteed.
-
Will this board solve issues with long SPI flash cables?
Yes, it is engineered specifically for setups using longer cables which may otherwise destabilise target boards or create ground loop risks.
-
Is extra configuration required in the Dediprog utility?
No, simply use your current software and workflow—the isolation operates transparently.
-
When are ground loops most likely to occur?
Ground loops commonly occur in test benches with multiple instruments, power supplies, or when programmer and target have separate mains connections.
-
How does the isolation board prevent ground loop damage?
It breaks circulating current paths between programmer and target grounds whilst maintaining signal integrity, preventing damage from potential differences.
-
Does the SF600-ISO-Board-2 fit both SF600 and SF600 Plus programmers?
Yes, it is compatible with both Dediprog SF600 and SF600 Plus models.
