MEC JTAG Adapter
The MEC JTAG Adapter is built to streamline your work with MEC KBC I/O like , providing quick and convenient access while saving valuable time. It supports multiple header types and is fully compatible with programmers such as SUCCESSOR, SVOD, RT809XX, and more.
This adapter includes all the essential JTAG pins—TMS, TDI, TCLK, RST, GND, and 3.3V—allowing you to power the latest MEC chips directly from your programmer, eliminating the need to connect an external power adapter to the motherboard.
It also features breakout points connected to some resistors places allow you to pull-up or pull-down for key signals like MSDATA, nFWP, and RESET, which are useful in scenarios where enabling or disabling write protection or other features is necessary. These breakouts make it easy to adapt the configuration depending on your specific use case.
The MEC JTAG Adapter comes complete with the required headers for soldering (based on your programmer), a connector, and JTAG wires.

USB-C Line Tracer and Tail Plug Detector – Laptop Dock Tester Tool
This compact USB‑C tester plugs directly into a port to probe every signal line, using the internal ESD protection diodes of connected TYPE-C ICs OR PD CONTROLLER. You can directly check the USB-C Port and all lines connecting to the Type-C chip directly or PD chip , and also know what protocol is activated on this input.
The tester can check all these pins
Power & Configuration
CC1, CC2 (A5, B5): Configuration Channel – determines plug orientation, establishes host/device role, negotiates power level, and signals alternate modes.
Data PINS
D+, D- (A6, A7, B6, B7): USB 2.0 differential pairs – always connected regardless of plug orientation.
TX/RX pairs (A2/A3/A10/A11 and B2/B3/B10/B11): SuperSpeed signals for:
USB 3.1 Gen 1/2
Thunderbolt 3/4
DisplayPort (via Alt Mode)
These lines are flipped depending on plug orientation.
Sideband / Auxiliary
SBU1, SBU2 (A8, B8):
DisplayPort Alt Mode (AUX channel)
Analog audio (e.g., headphone dongles)
USB Debug Accessory Mode (UART)
No HS, SBU, or CC → No CC negotiation; no PD connection .
HS detected, SBU absent → Likely USB‑3.x only.
HS & SBU detected → Indicates support for DP/Thunderbolt or USB‑3.x with SBU-based features.
SBU only → Debug or audio path present, but no USB‑3.x.

MPS PMBUS PASSWORD PROTECTION
MPS PMBUS PASSWORD PROTECTION
Do processor circuit ICs (VRM) really have passwords?
Do you remember the video where I explained how to program modern processor circuit ICs using a PMBUS programmer? I mentioned at the time that in some cases, we would need the schematic, because even though there are many dump files available now, for some models it’s not possible to backup the file from another board because the ic is protected.
This is because some modern processor VRM ICs support a feature called PMBUS Protect. This feature allows the manufacturer to set a password to protect the IC. It provides three levels of protection:
As for the second type, you can still take a backup and write it to a new or used VRM IC later without any issues.
Are there any ways to break this protection? No.
Are there any workarounds to bypass it? No.

This is because some modern processor VRM ICs support a feature called PMBUS Protect. This feature allows the manufacturer to set a password to protect the IC. It provides three levels of protection:
- Protection from reading the registers
- Protection from writing to the registers
- Protection from both reading and writing to the registers
As for the second type, you can still take a backup and write it to a new or used VRM IC later without any issues.
Are there any ways to break this protection? No.
