Note: Usually, new developers for NAND Flash should have a solution how to program their devices with NAND Flash semiconductor engineers and programmer vendor’s software development engineer.

How to READ NAND Flash

There is no global standard file system for NAND Flash programming for programmer vendors yet. Hence, customer who understands how to program NAND Flash is not hard to expect that READ (copy) a NAND Flash is very difficult project unless the customer knows all information how to program the master NAND Flash. EE Tools support most NAND device with specialized file systems and simple algorithm with ‘skipping bad blocks’. Please contact support.eetools.com for further assistance.

10. GLOSSARY

BGA	Ball Grid Array. A surface-mount device with solder balls and a high pin
	count, similar to PGA.
Bipolar PROM	A fuse-link programmable PROM.
Blank Check	A test performed by a device programmer to ascertain whether a device has
	been programmed (partial or total) or is in a virgin state.
Buffer	Data storage unit directly stored on CPU.
Checksum	A number that results by adding up every element of a pattern. Typically
	either a four or eight digit HEX number, it is a quick way to identify a
	pattern, since it is very unlikely that two patterns will have the same
	checksum.
Compare	Reading a programmable device and displaying any discrepancies from the
	desired pattern. Each error is displayed on the screen. This comparison is
	slower to perform than verify on the programmer.
Device	Microchip or Integrated Circuit chip.
Die	The silicon chip that is located within an IC package. It is a small rectangular
	flat piece of silicon that has been	fabricated with many transistors to
	perform a specific function. It is glued into a plastic or ceramic package and
