ACROVIEW, a leader in chip programming, recently announced the latest iteration of its programming software, along with a series of newly compatible chip models. In this update, the dual 6A power module MPM54522 from MPS Semiconductor has been supported by the ACROVIEW encrypted offline programmer AP8000.
MPM54522 is a dual 6A power module that integrates a high-efficiency buck DC/DC converter IC, two inductors, and optional passive components into a single molded package. The two outputs of this power module can operate in parallel to provide up to 12A of current; it also offers active current balancing for equal current sharing in parallel outputs.
MPM54522 features a unique adjustable low dropout regulator (LDO) with an output current (IOUT) of up to 500mA, achieving ultra-low noise output. This device employs constant on-time (COT) control, minimizing the required output capacitance while providing fast transient response.
MPM54522 includes on-chip non-volatile memory (NVM) for storing and restoring device configurations.
MPM54522 is available in an ultra-thin ECLGA (5×6.5×2.76mm) package.

• Ultra-thin ECLGA (5×6.5×2.76mm) package
Internal Block Diagram
The AP8000 universal programmer developed by ACROVIEW is a powerful programming solution that supports both one-to-one and one-to-eight configurations, offering online and offline versions, along with dedicated programming solutions for eMMC and UFS, fully meeting the bare chip (offline) and on-board programming needs for all MPS series chip models. The AP8000 consists of three core components: the host, the baseboard, and the adapter, serving as an industry-leading universal programming platform that not only accommodates the programming needs of various programmable chips on the market but also acts as the core programming platform for ACROVIEW’s chip programming device IPS5800S, efficiently supporting large-scale programming tasks.
The host supports both USB and NET connections, enabling networking of multiple programmers for synchronized control during programming operations. The built-in safety protection circuit can instantly detect abnormal situations such as reversed chip placement or short circuits, immediately cutting off power to ensure the safety of both the chip and the programmer. The host integrates a high-speed FPGA, significantly enhancing data transmission and processing speeds. The back of the host features an SD card slot, allowing users to save project files generated by PC software to the root directory of the SD card and insert it into the slot. By using the button on the programmer, users can select, load, and execute programming commands without relying on a PC, which not only reduces the hardware configuration costs of the PC but also facilitates the rapid establishment of a working environment.
The AP8000 enhances the host’s expansion capabilities through the combination design of the baseboard and adapter, currently supporting products from all major semiconductor manufacturers, including ESPRESSIF, ALLWINNER, ALLEGRO, TI, RENESAS, and others. The supported device types include NAND, NOR, MCU, CPLD, FPGA, EMMC, etc., and it is compatible with various file formats such as Intel Hex, Motorola S, Binary, and POF.
