    We have a design group in another city that is developing firmware for a BF527 using VisualDSP++. At our location where we do board and system testing, we have an ICE100B JTAG Emulator and have been using a demo version of VisualDSP++ to program the flash. The demo version is getting to the end of the demo period and we can't justify $4000 to buy VisualDSP++ to simply program a flash.
    
 
    As we only use the flash programmer out of VisualDSP++ and not the development environment, is it possible to buy only the flash programming software, or is there another program or another way to just program flash?

      Hi Pesiw,
      
 
      There is a way to flash your target boards without needing to install any license. VisualDSP++ 5.0 includes a Standalone Flash Programmer (SAFP) utility which provides flash programming support between the development/prototype stage and early pre-production runs. It is accessible through the VisualDSP++ Automation Interface.
      
 
      Please note that, while you do not need to apply a license in order to use the SAFP, a full install of the VisualDSP++ tools is required. The SAFP was introduced in VisualDSP++ 5.0.
      
 
      You will find information on the Stand Alone Flash Programmer in HELP under:
      
 
      'Help'->'Contents'->'Emulation Tools'->'Stand-Alone Flash Programmer'.
      
 
      Regards,
