EEPROM BIOS USB Programmer CH341A + SOIC8 Clip + 1.8V Adapter + SOIC8 Adapter for 24 25 Series Flash

This programmer worked perfect for reprogramming the bios on my gpu. I did have to go find a working driver but searching reddit made it pretty easy. Once the driver was installed everything worked just as it was supposed to and was a fairly easy process to give my amd 7900xtx the power it wanted with the asrock aqua extreme bios.

Includes everything you could need for all chip writing generally. It gets damaged with a lot of use but like all designs of its type has them easily removable and replaceable. And considering this is the cheapest one this is the best one!.

I strongly suggest reading specialized forums before attempting to update a computer’ bios chip. It is very delicate job requiring some basic knowledge of a pc hardware. And as there are no instructions for this device in the box you can spent hours sweating as I did, lol) Always remember that pin 1 of the bios chip should be aligned with the device’s handle.I have reviewed tons of utube videos before some guy mentioned this (God bless his soul) and I finally managed to get the device working. The rest was a magic, it reprogrammed the bios chip in a flash. Good product for a decent price.The only wish is to include a second adaptor for 200 ml, they are more commonly used these days.

The programmer itself is good enough for most tasks that you'll need a eeprom programmer, but the clip that's included is trash. It doesn't work with the chips on the board, it doesn't work with the chips desoldered, it just doesn't work. That being said, the rest of it works just fine so its all good.

I originally got this to try and fix a server motherboard that got "bricked" by a bad BIOS update. After getting a bad flash (my mistake, I flashed the wrong thing) it wouldn't power on.Fortunately I had another identical server so I was able to use this programmer to read the Winbond chip from that one and write it to the faulty system, and that fixed it. Awesome!In my case I was fortunate that using the SOIC8 clip adapter worked fine, but I know in some cases you might have to remove the chip. I'm just glad I didn't have to because I've never done SMD work.Since that repair I've done other things with this, just reading the BIOS chips of anything I could get my hands on. In many cases I've had to fiddle with the clip adapter to get it to work, but eventually it will. Maybe getting a higher quality clip adapter in the future would help, but if you're persistent, you might have good luck.I also purchased separately a SOIC16 adapter since I had to read a 16-pin chip for another project, and the reader worked fine with that too.As a tip, lookup the part # of the chip you're reading and figure out what voltage it uses so you'll know whether to use the 1.8V adapter or not, etc. It'll just save you some guesswork.Overall this is a great little tool for the person who knows what it does and how to use it.

Great service items are exactly as shown

I was skeptical with this programmer being cheap. Had to find drivers for this device but wasn’t hard with a quick google search.For the record I replaced the instrument cluster in my 2010 4.0 v6 mustang with a cluster from a premium 2010 4.0 mustang. This added two more gauges and had the mycolor features on the cluster.(to even get to that point a new dash harness is required as well as the info/setup/reset switch, PATS programming with new cluster installed, and asBuilt data from a 2010 premium v6 VIN programmed with ForScan for the Instrument Cluster Module to enable the features on the cluster.)With that done, the only issue was the mileage being incorrect. This new cluster had 60,000+ fewer miles on it. Which is no big deal as long as you don’t plan on selling it without proper documentation and door jamb sticker. But for me it was just personal preference. I hated not knowing the true mileage without having to do calculations every time.I came across similar videos on YouTube on how to do this mileage correction and decided to take a shot at it as I wouldn’t be out much money. Once I had the driver installed and the CH341A Programmer software ready I connected the clip to the chip without needing to desolder it and it read the data allowing me to save as a .bin to use with tachosoft online mileage calculator. Then I was able to program the new data to the chip and have my mileage correct for about $40 total.I also disassembled the cluster in my 2012 5.0 GT to verify that the same 24C16 chip is used and should also work on any 2010-2014 mustang.

Worked, but super hard to find drivers for. Had to resort to browsing Reddit threads to get it to work. Eventually got it, but I would say go for the slightly more expensive one that has readily available drivers.
