    Fail to BIOS Program WINBOND W25Q64FVSSIG 1.8V with SkyPro or CH341A

    Hello,

    I have a laptop with corrupted BIOS that i can't program. I even buy new chips but without success of flash correctly
    I have SkyPro and CH341A with two 1.8V adaptor.

    Skypro seens not compatible, it don't have the chip on list, i tried to use the W25Q64FW but doesn't work.
    So i end with CH341A v1.29 that have the W25Q64FV. It appear to correctly erase and blank the chip, even the read and write operation works but when it verify the contents they are always in disagreement with the buffer and read from write output a messy hex combination.

    Anyone know a compatible chip that i can use on skypro list to flash this rom?

      On main post i told i have two 1.8V adaptors, and yes i use them they are good
      The problem is my best programer (Skypro) does not have the chip under list and CH fails

        I came across this thread and wondered:

        According to datasheet, the W25Q64FVSSIG should be 3V chip (2.7-3.6V) not 1.8V.

          FV is 3.3V
          FW is 1.8V

          So you need to use a 3.3V programmer and pick W25Q64FV from the list.

          Are you programming on-board or did you unsolder it first?
          If on-board, you might need to apply power to motherboard.

            Thanks for info.

            But it is stated in the title of OPs thread "W25Q64FVSSIG" and he is trying to flash it with 1.8V.

            Thats what made me wonder.

              [Question] Ch341a and 5v to 3.3v with logic converter
              by md500
              zz0.8tpitu4y0i8zzI bought a ch341a (I'm waiting for it to arrive) and I noticed that the programmer has a bug that the data pins go to 5v when the VCC pin is at 3.3v (which is the voltage I'm looking for).

              Instead of doing the 3.3v mod, I'm thinking of converting the 5v to 3.3v with an 8 channel TXS0108E through the ZIF socket but I don't know if that would work, because it has to circulate voltage and also information.

              What I am looking for is something that will convert from 5v to 3.3v but without modifying the ch341a.

              I can't buy the ch341a 1.6v that has...

              Archer C9 V.4 Can ch341a be used for programming a 16pin Winbond w25q128fv
              by mccurly
              Hello folks,

              (First post of mine, after introduction).

              I came here to seek help for a board SPI reprogramming.

              The referred board belongs to an Archer C9 V.4 EU router, which I believe, is bricked, (I was the one to brick it during a flashing operation with custom dd-wrt firmware upgrade).

              The IC that I want to flash is this one:

              Datasheet for the IC in question .

              The one in the motherboard has 16 pins. (There are other IC in the motherboard, with 8 pins each, but I am almost positive that the one that will...
