Chip-Off Firmware Extraction on a Linux Embedded Device

Video Description

In this video, we demonstrate a chip-off firmware extraction on a Linux embedded device, using the proper amount of flux. We use the XGecu T56 universal programmer to read the firmware off the TSOP48 M29W640GT flash chip made by ST. After reading the firmware, we show how to reattach the flash chip to allow the device to be functional again. flash chip datasheet: https://media.digikey.com/pdf/Data%20Sheets/ST%20Microelectronics%20PDFS/M29W640G.pdf XGecu T56 universal programmer site: http://autoelectric.cn/EN/TL866_main.html Wine wrapper for XGecu software: https://github.com/radiomanV/TL866 Rossmann talking about the microscope I have: https://youtu.be/C_eQrbop-J4 IoT Hackers Hangout Community Discord Invite: https://discord.com/invite/vgAcxYdJ7A 🛠️ Stuff I Use 🛠️ 🪛 Tools: XGecu Universal Programmer: https://amzn.to/4dIhNWy Multimeter: https://amzn.to/4b9cUUG Power Supply: https://amzn.to/3QBNSpb Oscilloscope: https://amzn.to/3UzoAZM Logic Analyzer: https://amzn.to/4a9IfFu USB UART Adapter: https://amzn.to/4dSbmjB iFixit Toolkit: https://amzn.to/44tTjMB 🫠 Soldering & Hot Air Rework Tools: Soldering Station: https://amzn.to/4dygJEv Microsoldering Pencil: https://amzn.to/4dxPHwY Microsoldering Tips: https://amzn.to/3QyKhrT Rework Station: https://amzn.to/3JOPV5x Air Extraction: https://amzn.to/3QB28yx 🔬 Microscope Setup: Microscope: https://amzn.to/4abMMao Microscope 0.7X Lens: https://amzn.to/3wrV1S8 Microscope LED Ring Light: https://amzn.to/4btqiTm Microscope Camera: https://amzn.to/3QXSXsb About Me: My name is Matt Brown and I'm an Hardware Security Researcher and Bug Bounty Hunter.
