Hello,
We've been using successfully the sfh_OMAPL138 flash writer with the EVM from LogicPD to write bootable images which work with the DSP module.
Command that was used is: sfh_OMAP-L138.exe -flash_noubl myappc6748.ais -p COM1 -flashType SPI_MEM
We designed a custom board based on the DSP module(24MHz crystal) but since the EVM's SPI flash is difficult to find through our distributors we used an Atmel flash chip which supports the read command with 03h and 24bit addressing(AT25DF641) as specified in http://www.ti.com/lit/an/spraat2e/spraat2e.pdf that is connected to SPI1 [CS0]. UART boot pins are set for 115.2kbps so that we see "BOOTME" when board is reset. The problem we have is sfh_OMAPL138 SPI writer application when executed manages to erase the flash successfully and uploads the code but verifying fails and it doesn't work.
What flash chips are compatible with this processor and bootloader software which are not yet obsolete? Any idea why this Atmel chip wouldn't work and where should I start looking for the problem? This Atmel chip apparently is supported forever so it would be better for us to use it.
Thank you in advance for any suggestions,
David.
