X-Power J-TAG Programmer

The new XPower JTAG Programmer does not look much different compared to conventional programmers.

So what makes it so special?

X-Power is:

• Simple
• Flexible
• Stable and Safe

XPower was developed for home users who need a simple but reliable plug-and-repair device to fix all Sidsa based CI CAMs and receivers without any in-depth technical understanding.  

However, because of its extremely flexible technology, XPower is also the programming tool of choice for receiver enthusiasts.

Simple:
XPower was developed for home users who need a simple but reliable device to repair all Sidsa ARM 7 CPU based CAMs and receivers:

Connect one cable, push one button - and voila!

Flexible:
Because of its technology and JTAG compatibility, XPower is not only a wizard driven repair tool, but a superior programmer. Sat receiver enthusiasts who love to experiment, can program any universal JTAG device with self developed or publicly available software.

With the appropriate software, you could even tune your washing machine, if it has a JTAG header.

Stable and Safe:
For programming receivers, it is necessary to have a very sophisticated programmer such as XPower which ensures that the programming process is not disturbed and interrupted by faulty commands which lead to a poor stability with Busy / Error problems.

For programming CI-CAMs, it is necessary that programmer and CAM are supplied with enough power. USB programmers often are malfunctioning because the host computer's USB port cannot handle the peak currents. There are even cases reported that notebook USB ports got damaged because of this.

Main advantages over conventional CAS Programmers:
XPower contains a powerful microprocessor with sophisticated firmware to ensure that data is transferred with precise timing to the correct memory addresses. Compared to conventional programmers, it has the following advantages:

• No Busy/Error problems with SIDSA based receivers or CI-CAMs
• No data corruption, because of fast and smart verification method
• No broken JTAG lines and chips in receivers and CI-CAMs because built-in 3.3V / 5V autoswitch
• Jumper for CI-CAMs and built-in Magic KITs
• Compatible with all flash types used in receivers and CI-CAMs (incl. mbm29lv800, used in older CI-CAMs)
• 1:1 connection to all Sidsa based receivers with standard 14 pin JTAG header such as Xtreme One, Hornet Reloaded and others without soldering
• Guaranteed compatibility for all versions of  XC9536XL and XC9572XL (incl. 33 MHz oscillator version) and other Xilinx chips currently used in many systems
• All necessary Xilinx software is included and will be programmed automatically
• Ready for Dreambox JTAG (software and connection-kit will be available soon)
• High quality PCMCIA connector for CI-CAMs
• Compatible with a variety of third party programming software
• Superior CI-CAM programming stability due to the included high quality power supply unit
