Core Accessory Series Overview
1. Isolation Protection Modules: Insuring Your Investment
FunctionCreates an electrical isolation barrier between the programmer and the target board — disconnected before programming and closed during programming — effectively protecting the expensive programmer from faults such as target board shorts or abnormal voltages. An essential safety component for production environments.

FR2P0RB16: 16-channel relay isolation module.
FR2.0 NXG dual/four-channel isolation module: a compact isolation solution designed for the NXG series.
Application ScenariosAll in-line programming lines, especially in fields demanding extremely high reliability such as automotive electronics and industrial control.
2. Channel Expansion Modules: Breaking Channel Quantity Limits
FunctionDemultiplexing technology expands the programmer's physical channels, enabling parallel programming of more target devices and maximizing the throughput of a single unit.
ModelsFR2P0MPX32: expansion module that extends 16 physical channels into 32 logical channels.1.jpg
Application ScenariosScenarios requiring simultaneous programming of large numbers of identical chips, such as mass production of memory modules and communication modules.
3. Signal Interface Modules: Optimizing Signal Connections
FunctionProvides standardized signal adapter and breakout interfaces, converting the programmer's dense DIN connectors into interface forms that are easier to wire and manage, simplifying fixture integration and cable connection.
ModelsFR2P0INTF16/32: dedicated signal modules for 16 or 32 channels.1.jpg
Application ScenariosWhen ISP signals need to be distributed to multiple test points within a fixture.
4. Dedicated Signal Cables: Ensuring Signal Integrity
FunctionShielded flat cables with specific wire-order designs ensure the integrity of high-speed signals over long distances, reducing interference and attenuation.
ModelsFRCABLE series: dedicated cables available in multiple lengths (e.g., 50cm, 80cm, 100cm).1.jpg
Application ScenariosConnections between the programmer and fixtures, isolation boards or expansion boards — especially suitable for high-frequency signals (e.g., eMMC).
5. Wiring Terminals and Connectors: Fast, Reliable Connections
FunctionA variety of plugs, sockets and terminal boards for custom harness building or direct connection to target board test points, enabling quick connect/disconnect and reliable contact.

Application ScenariosFor building test fixtures, connector adapters or direct point testing.


Unified Industrial Connector System

All accessories use SMH's unified industrial cable connector system, ensuringfull compatibility and interchangeability between accessories. Users can freely combine different modules and cables like building blocks according to project needs, constructing the solution that best fits their production process — enabling "endless possibilities" in configuration.


Selection and Configuration Recommendations

1. Safety first: for any in-line programming line, configure isolation modules first — this is the key to protecting core assets.

2. Expand on demand: based on capacity planning, decide whether to add expansion modules to increase per-unit parallel capability.

3. Optimize signal paths: based on the distance between programmer and fixture and the signal frequency, choose appropriate dedicated cable lengths and interface modules to optimize signal quality.

4. Consult experts: leverage the engineering expertise of SMH or authorized partners to recommend the optimal accessory combination for your specific production environment (e.g., floor layout, fixture design, target board characteristics).


In summary, the FlashRunner 2.0 accessory ecosystem is the extension and embodiment of its powerful capabilities. It lets users go beyond the limits of standard hosts to build customized, highly reliable, future-ready complete programming stations that address specific challenges such as efficiency, safety, signal quality and integration complexity — ultimately maximizing production benefits.
