Dediprog: SPI Flash Memory Programming
The Flash Programming Tool (FPT) is an MS-DOS* program that is included in the
Intel
®
ME Ignition Firmware kit and allows for updating the PCH SPI device. Refer to
the kit documentation for additional details on the FPT tool.
Note:
Flash Descriptor Security Override strap (GPIO33, jumper J1G4) must be populated.
SPI Flash can be reprogrammed using the Dediprog device (SF100). You will need to
purchase an additional converter (10 pin) from the Dediprog website
www.dediprog.com/product.php?UID=99
Even though the SPI flash can be programmed with or without power on the board, it
is best to do it with the board powered down.
1. Disconnect the Intel
®
Communications Chipset 89xx Series SPI interface to SPI
flash by removing the shunt from SPI_PROG jumper (J2J1) to program either SPI0
or SPI1.
2. Connect Dediprog to Dediprog connector header (J2J2), ensuring orientation is
correct. Use the 10-pin header, which has a rainbow of colors. Pin 1 of the header
(square pad) is connected to the brown strap of the cable.
3. Remove SPI WR protection jumpers J3J3 and J3J4 (if populated).
4. Launch the Dediprog software. Ensure that the program detects the correct type
of flash device (for example, AT25DF321).
