Supported programmers

Flashrom supports many different programmers, including PC mainboards, various PCI cards with soldered-on flash chips, and various USB/serial-port/parallel-port based programmers.

Programmer		Status	Comments
	internal	supported	Flashrom supports a large number of mainboards, other mainboards may be supported out-of-the-box too, or might require a little additional code in flashrom.
	dummy	supported	The "dummy" programmer is a software-only implementation of a simple programmer which is mostly useful for flashrom development and testing.
	nic3com	supported	Flashrom supports some 3Com network cards to reflash the (parallel) flash attached to these cards, but it is also possible to use these cards to reflash other chips which fit in there electrically. Please note that the small number of address lines connected to the chip may make accessing large chips impossible. The maximum supported chip size if 128KB.
	nic3realtek	supported	TODO
	gfxnvidia	supported	Flashrom supports some Nvidia graphic cards to reflash the (parallel) flash attached to these cards, but it is also possible to use these cards to reflash other chips which fit in there electrically.
	drkaiser	supported	TODO
	satasii	supported	Flashrom supports some SiI ATA/SATA controllers to reflash the flash attached to these controller cards, but it is also possible to use these cards to reflash other chips which fit in there electrically. Please note that the small number of address lines connected to the chip may make accessing large chips impossible.
	ft2232_spi	supported	Flashrom supports the usage of various FTDI FT2232/FT4232H/FT232H-based devices as SPI flashers:
	ft2232_spi	supported	DLP Design DLP-USB1232H
	ft2232_spi	supported	FTDI FT2232H Mini-Module
	ft2232_spi	supported	FTDI FT4232H Mini-Module
	ft2232_spi	supported	openbiosprog-spi is an Open Hardware USB-based programmer for SPI chips, designed by Uwe Hermann. It uses an FTDI FT2232H chip and features either a DIP-8 socket or a pinheader where jumper-wires can be attached.
	ft2232_spi	supported	RushSPI is an Open Hardware USB-based programmer for SPI chips, designed by Nikolaj Schlej. It uses an FTDI FT232H chip and features a DIP-8 socket and a pinheader where jumper-wires can be attached.
	ft2232_spi	supported	Amontec JTAGkey, JTAGkey-tiny, and JTAGkey2
	ft2232_spi	supported	ARM-USB-TINY, ARM-USB-TINY-H, ARM-USB-OCD, ARM-USB-OCD-H
	ft2232_spi	supported	GOEPEL PicoTAP
	ft2232_spi	supported	TIAO Tumpa (USB Multi-Protocol Adapter)
	ft2232_spi	supported	Dangerous Prototypes Bus Blaster
	ft2232_spi	supported	OpenMoko Neo1973 Debug board (V2+)
