Speed Issue

Postby itisdeadjim » Fri Feb 06, 2026 8:58 pm

Got a new Revelprog, installed latest firmware+software.
I have some odd speed issue. At first it was constantly dumping at low speed (ca 300kbit/s) no matter what setting I used. Then it switched for whatever reason and now is constantly at 8-9MB/s.
The self test was OK. I could dump smaller SPI chips with either speed. But I got problems with larger ones. Not sure if this is only a speed issue, since it is ISP it could also be other reasons. But changing clock speed sometimes helped in these cases.
I also tried to reinstall drivers. It is a Windows 11 machine and the libusb-win32 driver failed. Not sure if this is an issue, since Zadig should be used for installation which worked fine.
Any ideas?

Without correct driver it will not work at all.

For full speed 8-9mbps SCK minimum 50% is required.

Are you using any emulation or HUB for USB? It may cause hardware delays.

And additional hint - there are few types of general SPI Flash ended with [PP], [BP] or without sufix - please select [PP] (Page Program) for fastest operation, because [BP] (byte programm) is compatible mode (for some devices) and it's much slower.
