The chip programming leader ACROVIEW Technology has announced a significant version upgrade of its programming software. Along with the release of the new version, it has also announced the addition of several compatible chip models, including the power management chip RTQ6749A from RICHTEK Technology. Currently, this chip has successfully completed technical adaptation with ACROVIEW’s universal programmer AP8000, significantly enhancing the compatibility of the AP8000 series devices with the chip.
The RTQ6749A is a power management IC that can be programmed via an I2C interface. It includes two synchronous Boost converters that provide PAVDD and VGH outputs, a synchronous Buck-Boost converter that provides NAVDD output, a charge pump that generates VGL, a high-performance VCOM generation circuit with an 8-bit calibrator, and a voltage detection circuit, all packaged in a WQFN-32L 5×5 package, suitable for automotive LCD display applications.
The RTQ6749A operates within an input voltage range of 2.5V to 5.5V, with a high operating frequency to avoid interference with AM radio operation. All converters feature current limit protection, output fault shutdown protection, and fault indication signals to the vehicle’s computer in case of failure, along with adjustable soft start to limit current surges during startup. The recommended junction temperature range is -40°C to 150°C, and the ambient temperature range is -40°C to 105°C.

ACROVIEW Technology’s self-developed AP8000 universal programmer has become a benchmark professional programming solution in the industry. This device supports flexible one-to-one and one-to-eight configuration modes and provides both online and offline working modes. It has developed dedicated programming solutions specifically for storage chips such as eMMC and UFS, fully covering the bare chip offline programming and on-board programming needs for the entire series of RICHTEK Technology chips. The AP8000 adopts an innovative modular design consisting of three core modules: host, baseboard, and adapter, providing excellent compatibility and expandability. As a universal programming platform, it not only adapts to various programmable chips on the market but also, with its stable and efficient performance, serves as the core component of ACROVIEW’s automated batch programming device IPS5800S, 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. If 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 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 on the PC to the SD card and insert it into the slot. They can then complete file selection, loading, and 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 combination design of baseboard and adapter board, effectively expanding 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 YUNTU, HAAWKING, sinomcu, XHSC, ZHIXIN, etc. 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.
