Equipment for flashing
|
||||||
|
----------------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### A rework station with accessories.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
While some hardened technicians would insist on getting things done
|
||||||
|
with a grandfather's kilowatt soldering iron, we suggest you to buy
|
||||||
|
a modern soldering station with a hot air nozzle and temperature
|
||||||
|
control. You don't need to be fancy, an entry level soldering station
|
||||||
|
like YIHUA 882D, or JCD 8898, or YOUYUE 8586 would do, and it won't
|
||||||
|
break the bank with its price tag of $50-70, more or less.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Throw in a silicone mat, a tube of no-clean flux, a can of solder paste,
|
||||||
|
desoldering copper wick, ceramic tweezers, nonwoven swabs and a bottle
|
||||||
|
of isopropyl alcohol. Many of these things can be already included as
|
||||||
|
perks with the soldering station.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### A programmer for flashing memory chips.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Again, some would say that you need a multi-thousand dollar branded
|
||||||
|
programmer but in real life the cheapest CH341A USB programmer works
|
||||||
|
like a charm, especially after you [fix the voltage bug][1].
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Or you can but an improved model, version 1.7 and higher, where that
|
||||||
|
problem has alredy been fixed in design.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Add a SOP8 208mil to DIP8 socket adapter.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Also, it's a good idea to have a bunch of spare flash memory chips.
