JLinkZReader program

JLinkZReader, a software program used for reading and writing flash ROM data directly from and to vehicle Engine Control Units (ECUs).

Key Features Explained:

  1. Primary Function: It is a tool for reading and writing the internal data (CPU flash ROM data) of automotive ECUs.
  2. Supported Processors: The program specifically works with a range of microcontrollers commonly used in automotive ECUs, including:
    • TMS570LS11xx series (e.g., TMS570LS1113, TMS570LS1114)
    • TMS570LS04xx series
    • S32K142 (from NXP)
    • TMS570LS31xx series (which includes the TMS570LS3135 from the previous text)
    • TMS470R1A256
  3. Freeware for TMS570LS11xx: A significant point is that the program is completely free when used for reading data from the TMS570LS11xx family of processors.
  4. Required Hardware: The program is designed to work with the J-Link hardware programmer (versions 9 and above).
