CH347 Programmer Drivers and Software for Windows

Now that we’ve explored the hardware aspects of the CH347T-based programmer, it’s time to dive into the drivers and software that bring this device to life. While the hardware offers substantial improvements in terms of speed and functionality, its true potential can only be unlocked with the appropriate software tools. This section will guide you through the installation process of the drivers and examine the software options available for interacting with the programmer.

One key consideration when using the CH347T programmer is the compatibility of the software and how well it manages the various serial interfaces it supports, including UART, I2C, SPI, JTAG, and SWD. We’ll explore Windows only tools, focusing on how they handle specific tasks such as memory programming, serial communication, and debugging.

CH347 Fast USB Programmer Schematic and Review

There is a new product on the cheap serial programmers market. Nanjing Qinheng Microelectronics Co., Ltd. (the same company which created CH341A under the brand WinChipHead) released a new and improved USB interface IC: the CH347. Zigong Yaojie Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. used this chip to make an upgraded serial memory programmer. To be more specific, they used the “T” version (CH347T) for a cheap programmer in a similar shape and size to the well known CH341A Mini Programmer.

So, is it worth to switch to CH347T programmer? If you’ve previously used CH341A Mini Programmer you may know it had some voltage levels issues (not the IC itself, but the programmer by design). It’s time to analyze the new CH347T programmer to see if old issues were fixed and what new limitations come from its currently available version.
