As a leader in the chip programming field, ACROVIEW has announced an expansion of its compatible chip model list alongside the release of its new programming software. HOPERF’s FSK transmitter chip CMT2189D is among the newly added models, now supported by the ACROVIEW universal programming platform AP8000.
The CMT2189D is a low-power SoC RF transmitter equipped with an enhanced 1T-8051 core, featuring the following key characteristics and functions:
1. This series of chips supports wireless transmission functions in the range of 27–960MHz, with OOK modulation or (G)FSK modulation.
2. Efficient single-ended PA, with an adjustable output power range of 0~+13dBm, requiring only 18mA at +13dBm transmission.
3. 8kB OTP program memory and 12kB ROM (for storing API function libraries).
4. Features a single-wire (1-WIRE) online emulation function, allowing users to directly download target debug code into the on-chip PRAM for execution via a dedicated 1-WIRE debugger, making debugging very convenient; unlike traditional OTP chips that do not support online emulation and require specific emulators, making debugging cumbersome.
5. Built-in AES-128 accelerator and true random number generator (TRNG), providing a 32-bit serial number (ID), making it very suitable for remote control or active RFID applications where transmission information needs to be encrypted.
6. Supports a dual-clock operating architecture, allowing the system to run an internal high-speed clock while using an internal low-power RC oscillator for low-power timed wake-up mode.
7. Built-in 12-bit high-precision high-speed SAR-ADC, suitable for wireless data acquisition from sensors.

System Block Diagram
With a solid technical foundation, ACROVIEW’s self-developed AP8000 universal programmer is regarded as a benchmark-level programming solution in the industry. This device supports flexible one-to-one and one-to-eight configurations, while providing both online and offline working modes. It has also developed dedicated programming solutions for eMMC and UFS storage chips, fully meeting the bare chip offline programming and on-board programming needs for the entire series of HOPERF chips. The AP8000 consists of three core modules: host, baseboard, and adapter, and this modular design endows it with excellent compatibility and expandability. As a universal programming platform, the AP8000 can not only adapt to various programmable chips on the market but also, due to its stable and efficient performance, has become the core component of ACROVIEW’s automated IPS5800S programming system, efficiently handling large-scale chip programming tasks to meet mass production needs.
The AP8000 host features flexible connectivity options, equipped with USB and NET interfaces, allowing for easy networking of multiple programmers. Through the networking function, users can easily achieve synchronized control of multiple programmers, efficiently conducting parallel programming operations. In terms of safety, the host is equipped with an intelligent safety protection circuit that can monitor the chip placement status and circuit connection in real-time. Once it detects abnormal conditions such as chip reverse insertion or short circuits, it will immediately trigger a power-off protection mechanism, fully safeguarding the safe operation of the chip and programmer. The host is internally equipped with a high-speed FPGA chip, significantly enhancing data transmission and processing efficiency, ensuring a smooth and efficient programming process. To enhance user convenience, the back of the host is equipped with an SD card slot, allowing users to store project files generated with the PC onto the SD card and insert it into the slot. They can then complete file selection and loading for programming operations through the physical buttons on the programmer, achieving independent operation without a PC. This design not only reduces dependence on computer hardware configurations but also simplifies the setup process of the working environment, significantly enhancing operational flexibility.
In terms of expandability and compatibility, the AP8000 adopts a modular design of baseboard and adapter board, effectively extending the functional boundaries of the host. Currently, this device has achieved support for products from all major semiconductor manufacturers, covering well-known brands such as ESPRESSIF, ALLWINNER, ALLEGRO, TI, RENESAS. It supports a wide range of device types, including NAND, NOR, MCU, CPLD, FPGA, EMMC, etc., and is fully compatible with various industry-standard file formats such as Intel Hex, Motorola S, Binary, POF, providing users with a one-stop, all-scenario chip programming solution.
