It seems there is a need for the NX_Programmer as documented in this [https://www.nyquest.com.tw/upload/2020_03_243/Q-Writer_UM_v4%604_TC.pdf Q Writer document from Nyquest].  I suspect it could be reprogrammed in-situ but I never got this far.

What child wouldn't love their plush dolls to sing to them, especially the Frozen theme songs. This is the idea behind the magic-pendent Frozen-II plush dolls. You can still buy these dolls on Amazon (Japan) and watch the video of version two on youtube. They started selling version 1 (pendant) in 2016, and version 2 (microphone) starting late 2016.

General Description

The dolls work on the concept of the pendent containing NFC chip which activates a song playback. The pendant is a simple NFC tag, whilst the plush doll body contains the RF transceiver and playback logic. There is no difference between the Anna or Elsa doll other than what is loaded into the flash eeprom.

NFC Unit

The PCB contains two logic IC, one an RF amplifier the other the ARM Cortex-M0 enabled microcontroller playback unit. The MCU unit contains 32K OTP ROM for program code, and a further 8Mb audio flash-rom.

It seems there is a need for the NX_Programmer as documented in this Q Writer document from Nyquest. I suspect it could be reprogrammed in-situ but I never got this far.
