10-pin Needle Adapter
SEGGER offers the 10-pin Needle Adapter, which has been designed to connect Flasher 5, Flasher ST7 or Flasher STM8 to a PCB which does not come with a mating connector or programming header. The designed pattern with 3 locating pins ensures, that the adapter can only be connected in one way.
The 10-pin needle adapter allows manufacturers to save costs and space on their PCBs since there is no need to provide the PCB with additional connectors. It adapts from the 10-pin, 0.1 inch connector to a 10-pin, 0.05 inch needle pattern.

Download speed
Flasher STM8 has been designed to allow downloading to the target as fast as the
target can receive and program flash. The table below shows the measured download
speed for standalone programming and for programming via PC driven software. The
following testing environment has been used:
- PC with 2.53 GHz Core2Duo, running WinXP
- USB 2.0 port
- USB 2.0 hub
- STM8S208MBT6B
| Operation | Standalone mode | PC mode |
