Programming for the Automotive Market

• As data density, device complexity and the sheer number of devices in a car continue to increase, reducing programming costs is critical. In-system, in-circuit and in-line programming become less efficient in this new environment
• In-house, off-line programming requires unmatched efficiencies to lower cost per device
• Consider, an autonomous car will need 100 times more lines of code than an F-35 fighter jet

Outstanding support: This is the #1 reason our customers come back to BPM for their next programming solution. How can we help you?

High-Speed Programming

Powered by the newest 9th Generation Technology, BPM automated systems deliver the fastest programming speeds in the industry for MCUs, eMMC HS400, NAND, NOR and Serial Flash devices. BPM’s 9th Gen technology produces 200 MHz signals, transferring each byte of data in up to 2.5 ns―up to 9 times faster than competing systems.

What’s Inside

BPM’s Automated Programming Systems have up to 12 programming sites, with up to 48 individual socket cards, to support high-volume production. Our Vector Engine Co-Processor accelerates flash memory waveforms for programming near the theoretical limits of silicon design. The faster the device, the faster it’s programmed. Our 3D Vision option inspects BGA, CSP, QFP, TSOP, SOIC and J-Lead devices for coplanarity, bent lead, pitch, width, diameter, standoff and X/Y errors. Marking options include Fiber Laser Marker and the ID-PRO™, ink-based conformation marking system. Software API tools integrate your manufacturing process for tight inventory control and process management.

BPM’s Vector Engine BitBlast turbocharges programming- up to 52% faster

True Universal Support

BPM offers True Universal Support―one solution for all your device programming requirements. It’s compatible with existing 7th Gen and 8th Gen socket cards and algorithms, so our customers retain the value of asset investments. One universal programming site accommodates all devices, reducing the number of systems, sites and sockets needed. That saves you money, training, complexity and floor space.

High-Quality Socket Cards

Socket cards provide the electro-mechanical interface between your device and the programmer. They deliver high-fidelity waveforms to the programmable device, ensuring very high first-pass yields. Each individual socket card can be fully utilized and easily replaced to maintain full programming capacity. Our socket card design, with a receptacle socket option, ultimately increases your manufacturing up-time, produces higher first-pass yields, and reduces replacement costs by up to 75 percent.
