• The software tools used for building your application (assembler, linker, C compiler).
• The C programming language.
• The target processor.
• DOS command line.
If you feel that your knowledge of C is not sufficient, we recommend The C Programming Lan-
guage by Kernighan and Richie (ISBN 0–13–1103628), which describes the standard in C pro-
gramming and, in newer editions, also covers the ANSI C standard.
How to use this manual
This manual explains all the functions and macros that the product offers. It assumes you have
a working knowledge of the C language. Knowledge of assembly programming is not required.

This manual uses the following typographic conventions:
Style Used for
Body Body text.
Keyword Text that you enter at the command prompt or that appears on
the display (that is system functions, file- or pathnames).
Parameter Parameters in API functions.

Chapter 1
Introduction
This chapter gives a short overview about the different models of the Flasher family and
their features.
Flasher User Guide (UM08022) © 2004-2018 SEGGER Microcontroller GmbH

11 CHAPTER 1 Flasher overview
1.1 Flasher overview
Flasher is a programming tool for microcontrollers with on-chip or external flash memory.
Flasher is designed for programming flash targets with the J-Flash software or stand-alone.
In addition to that Flasher can also be used as a regular J-Link. For more information about
J-Link in general, please refer to the J-Link / J-Trace User Guide which can be downloaded
at http://www.segger.com.
Flasher connects to a PC using the USB/Ethernet/RS232 interface (what host interfaces are
available depends on the Flasher model), running Microsoft Windows 2000, Windows XP,
Windows 2003, Windows Vista, Windows 7 or Windows 8. In stand-alone mode, Flasher can
be driven by the start/stop button, or via the RS232 interface (handshake control or ASCII
interface). Flasher always has a 20-pin connector, which target interfaces are supported
depends on the Flasher model:
• Flasher ARM: JTAG and SWD are supported.
• Flasher RX: JTAG is supported. Flasher comes with additional 14-pin RX adapter
• Flasher PPC: JTAG is supported. Flasher comes with additional 14-pin PPC adapter.
• Flasher PRO: JTAG and SWD are supported.
1.1.1 Features of the Flasher ATE
• Supports up to 10 individual channels
• Stand-alone JTAG/SWD programmer (Once set up, Flasher can be controlled without
the use of PC program)
• Flexible power supply (USB, DC)
• 128 MB memory for storage of target program on each module
• Data files can updated via the integrated FTP server

1.1.2 Features of Flasher ARM/PPC/RX/PRO
• Three boot modes: J-Link mode, stand-alone mode, MSD mode
• Stand-alone JTAG/SWD programmer (Once set up, Flasher can be controlled without
the use of PC program)
• No power supply required, powered through USB
• Supports internal and external flash devices
• 128 MB memory for storage of target program
• Can be used as J-Link (emulator) with a download speed of up to 720 Kbytes/second
• Data files can updated via USB/Ethernet (using the J-Flash software), via FTP, via RS232
or via the MSD functionality of Flasher

12 CHAPTER 1 Flasher overview
1.1.3 Features of Flasher Portable/Flasher Portable PLUS
• Stand-alone in-circuit-programmer (Once set up, Flasher can be controlled without the
use of a PC program)
• Powered by an internal rechargeable battery (standard batteries for Flasher Portable),
no Laptop or external power supply required.
• Multiple firmware images can be stored on Flasher
• 128 MB memory for storage of target program
• Easy selection of image to be programmed, via button
• Supported CPUs: ARM Cortex, Legacy ARM7/9, Renesas RX, Freescale PowerPC
• Supports internal and external flash
• Free software updates*, 1 year of support
• Data files can be updated via the MSD functionality or via J-Flash
• Programming speed between 30-300 Kbytes/second (actual speed depends on target
hardware)
Note
Ethernet and RS232 as host interface are not available for Flasher Portable
Note
*As a legitimate owner of a SEGGER Flasher, you can always download the latest
software free of charge. Though not planned and not likely, we reserve the right to
change this policy. Note that older models may not be supported by newer versions
of the software. Typically, we support older models with new software at least 3 years
after end of life
Supported cores Supported

Power PC e200z0 JTAG up to 138 Kbytes/second
1.1.4 Working environment
General
The Flasher can operate from a PC with an appropriate software like J-Flash or in stand-
alone mode.
Host System
IBM PC/AT or compatible CPU: 486 (or better) with at least 128MB of RAM, running Microsoft
Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows 2003, Windows Vista, Windows 7 or Windows 8. It
needs to have a USB, Ethernet or RS232 interface available for communication with Flasher.
Power supply
Flasher Portable: 3x standard AAA batteries or 5V DC, min. 100 mA via USB connector.
Flasher Portable PLUS: internal rechargeable 680mAh Li-Ion battery, min. 100 mA via USB
connector.
Other Flashers: 5V DC, min. 100 mA via USB connector.
