Data I/O to Demo Device Programming at NEPCON China 2018
March 20, 2018 | Data I/O CorporationEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Data I/O Corporation will showcase its award-winning UFS device programming technology on the Lumen X in Booth 1A32 at NEPCON China, scheduled to take place April 24-26 at the Shanghai World Expo Exhibition & Convention Center.
"New requirements for faster performance, improved responsiveness and growing file sizes for IoT devices, the connected car and wireless applications are driving adoption of Universal Flash Storage (UFS), the next-generation flash memory," said Doctor Ma Qinghua, General Manager of Data I/O China. "These applications are transitioning from eMMC flash to UFS. China electronics manufacturers are faced with an extraordinary challenge to manage exponential growth in content and transition to new Flash Memory technology while maintaining production throughput. Traditional methods of programming no longer apply to today’s electronics markets. Data I/O is thrilled to extend support on LumenX for UFS devices delivering maximum performance, flexibility and throughput for the lowest total cost to our customers."
The LumenX programming platform is architected to support the latest device technologies for maximum performance today and in the future. Data I/O's UFS support delivers optimal programming performance, capacity and manageability to meet high-volume production demands while delivering the lowest total cost of ownership.
UFS support is available on the LumenX Desktop or integrated into the PSV5000 and PSV7000 automated programming systems. Existing PSV customers can protect their investments and easily upgrade their PSV systems to support UFS as their production requirements change. The combination of LumenX programming technology in a PSV system delivers the maximum performance, flexibility and throughput for the lowest total cost.

Critical Minerals: The New Power Play in Global Trade
10/13/2025 | Marcy LaRont, I-Connect007Access to critical minerals essential for electronics manufacturing, and China’s monopoly of them, is increasingly under scrutiny, with gallium (Ga) and germanium (Ge)at the forefront of this discourse. However, all critical minerals imported from China share a similar narrative, and understanding the implications of this dependency and the risks to both U.S. commercial and defense sectors has created an urgent need for a comprehensive electronics strategy to secure and diversify access to these vital minerals. In this candid interview, USPAE Executive Director Jim Will discusses the issues and the mitigation steps that must be taken to adequately address them.
