SX SPC5 Programmer for Automotive MPC5xxx / SPC56xx MCUs

Unlock, Read, and Write Protected Automotive Microcontrollers

The SX SPC5 Chip Programmer is a professional JTAG/Nexus interface designed for automotive technicians, ECU repair shops, and locksmiths who need direct access to locked-down Power Architecture® microcontrollers. This powerful tool allows you to read, write, and erase the internal flash and EEPROM memory of a wide range of MPC5xxx and SPC5xxx series chips, commonly found in Engine Control Units (ECUs), Transmission Control Units (TCUs), Gateway modules, and Keyless Vehicle Modules (KVMs).

Stop turning away jobs because of protected processors. This programmer is your key to performing advanced repairs, cloning modules, and programming keys on a component level.

Real-World Applications for Workshops:

• Land Rover / Jaguar: Read the D-Flash from the SPC560B60L3 chip on a keyless entry (KVM/RFA) board to prepare dealer keys or perform module renewal.
• Volkswagen / Audi: Access the MCU in Gateway modules (SPC5607B / SPC5644B) and ECUs (SPC563M64) for repairs and data recovery.
• General Motors / Buick: Read and write the flash on a LaCrosse transmission board (SC667203) or the SPC5633MMLQ60 chip found in GM Wuling modules.
• Volvo: Directly interface with the SPC564B70 MCU on gateway boards.
• And many more: This tool supports a wide range of ECUs using the PowerPC architecture, including those from Steyr (MPC5642AMZV2) and other manufacturers.

Key Features:

• Stable and high-speed communication via JTAG/Nexus interface.
• Supports Read/Write/Erase operations for P-Flash and D-Flash.
• Powered directly via USB, no external power supply needed.
• Compact and durable design for workshop use.
• Includes necessary connection cables for a direct-to-board connection.
