LabTool 48UXP Clone

[SunRise]

It's sanded off
On some chips that's been sanded, sometimes if you wet the sanded area you can still make out what was printed
Only sometimes so can't garentee it

So we really have no proof this is an ATtiny12 other than the word of people who post blank dumps?

i agree
not sure if iv seen somewhere it say
will try taking a closer look at mine
i also have a genuine labtool48xp (none usb)
will look at that pcb to see what it has

[tango]

genuine has same reference of u62 and thats sanded off too
so im guessing this chip must hold the serial etc

I am personally guessing this chip will be code locked tbh. Can't see them trying to go to the trouble of sanding the contents off but not locking it during programming.

i would have thought so too but my main thought is if it can be code locked/fuse bits blown then why sand the chip id off them???

only reason i can see for any company to sand the chip id off is to just make it more awkward for cloning, but someone somewhere must know if its an ATtiny12 or not for sure.

the older labtool48lv used a peel chip that was prone for corrupting

Sanding off is common as it slows down cloners; lock bits are not considered secure - they can be beaten by MCU attack, sanding makes it hard to choose what CPU you are attacking.

I've not disappeared - Just had a busy few days. I'm going to look at dumping the chip tomorrow on mine (if it's possible)

before you do that can you do a self test and send me the .rep file it creates please
details i sent you in pm

[tango]

any progress?????????

[tango]

anyone with a working clone ?
can someone that has a working clone please do a self test and post or send me the .rep file it creates please
it has to be from a working 48uxp

Ill be sending mine over later, just need to find some safe sw for it.

You want sw version 6.80 or lower
I have the software somewhere, I'll dig it out and send you it

I just need something that won't brick it for the rep file you want.

[tango]

found version 6.20
software must be used on windows xp only

is there anyone with a clone that can do a self test and post the .rep file ???
surely someone has a working clone ???

[SunRise]

I am still here. WinXP is a minor issue or me until the Christmas break when I can set up a temp XP one.
