How to Setup HALCoGen FEE-Tab to use Flash Bank 1 AND 7

Hi Frank,

I have forwarded this question to the flash API author. He will respond soon.

Regards, Sunil

Hi Sunil,

is there any way to contact the flash API author directly?

We have plenty of questions even the german TI-Supporter could not solve and this way I don't have to start several threads on here.

Regards, Frank

Hi Frank,

There may be several other folks who also have similar questions and could benefit from such a discussion that is available on this public forum.

If you have something to ask that you want no one else to know, then the forum also allows for a mechanism to have a private conversation with a TI engineer. You can do this by "friend"ing that engineer and then continuing the conversation in an offline/private mode.

Hi Sunil,

I don't mind if anyone reads the questions. Its all about general TI-functions. Just didn't want to "flood" the forum. If its ok for TI I keep going posting all those questions.

Regards, Frank.

Frank,

What device are you using?

We are using a RM48L952ZWT

Frank,

Per device specifications, Bank 7 is the only bank supported for Flash EEPROM emulation.

Hi John,

if this is true it would be a big problem. Several TI-employees promissed us that this would be possible. We need at least 1.5mb of non-volatile, ECC secured memory. How can we get those 1.5mb using RM48L952?

Regards, Frank

Frank,

You can use Bank 1 for static or constant data, but Bank 1 does not support the number of write erase cycles needed for Flash EEPROM emulation.  Our FEE drivers are designed with this limitation in mind with Bank 7 (64KB) as the only Flash memory on the RM48L952 that we support FEE drivers on and therefore there is no mechanism in HALCoGen to configure any other banks for FEE use.

Hi Frank,

TI FEE driver as of now only support TMS570x devices.

The restrictions I gave for RM devices also apply to TMS570 devices.
