AM3352: NOR flash programming tool

Kummi

Part Number: AM3352
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: UNIFLASH

Hi,

Is there any Windows standalone programmer to program NOR Flash.
Our target board only has JTAG and UART interface.And we don't have Linux environment.

The Sitara Uniflash seems to support only Ethernet and USB,
is there any way to use Uniflash with UART or JTAG to Program NOR Flash?
If not please let me know if there is a CCS project supporting NOR flash programming.

Best Regards

Hi,

What software and what type of flash - serial or parallel, do you want to program?

We do provide a CCS based SPI NOR serial flash programming tool in Processor SDK RTOS:

Hi,

Thank you for the information.

This application is based on Starterware.
The NOR flash is parallel, non-mux mode used to store Bootloader.

Do we have any other windows based tools(like open source) which could be used to
flash the NOR through UART or JTAG?

With regards to the CCS based programming tool, do we have parallel NOR version?
only option is to modify the SPI NOR program to parallel?

Best Regards
Kummi

Kummi,

Nor Serial flash programmers uses MCSPI interface and not EMIF/GPMC interface with NOR flash. It may be simpler for you to modify the NAND Writer that uses parallel interface(GPMC/EMIF) than to use serial NOR flash programmer.

I will check if we have something internally and get back to you on this.

Rahul
