HELLO,
my name is mhemara fay. i have a q for you.
Anyone has successfully extracted a preprogrammed 8051 chip with fuse locked? I want to retrieve the binary image from a programmed 8051 micro any ideas? Thanx
this is mhemara fay agin and thank you for the answres you give.
i am not a criminal! i need toi get code from a chip i programmed. it is my code but i lost the source!
i do not think it is illegal to get my own code.
How did you manage to "lose" the source?
How much source have you "lost"? Was it 'C' or assembler?
Even if you do manage to read the device, remember that it will just be "raw" binary - not full source. So you're still going to have plenty of work to do to get back to any proper source code...
How long would it take to re-write from scratch? That may well be easier/cheaper than trying to "extract" the binary, disassemble it, and turn it back into useful source...
