OMAP-L138: Programming the SPI nor flash connected to omap-l138.

Part Number: OMAP-L138

Hi,

I have been recently using LCDKOMAP-L138 for my projects and I have been successfully flashing the device. 

The procedure I used is mentioned below,

1) load the lcdkomapl138 starterware bootloader project in CCSv6.1.1.0

2) load the ARM and DSP bare metal code projects in the CCSv6.1.1.0

Now, we have three projects loaded in the CCSv6.1.1.0

3)After building ARM and DSP projects, I locate their entry addresses through their respective .map file and paste those address in the starterware bl_main.c as below,

unsigned int entryPoint = 0x8000100;
unsigned int DspEntryPoint = 0xC0010008;

4)After this, I loaded the .cgf file in the AISgen utility also the boot.out file of bootloader starterware project and convert it into the boot.ais.

5)After this merging the ARM.out and DSP.out file into single ARM_DSP.bin file using out2rprc.exe.

6)Finaly comes the flashing of the device by selecting the ARM_DSP.bin and boot.ais and suitable COM port through sfh_OMAP-L138.exe.

This method can easily program the NAND-16 flash on the lcdkomapl138.

Now, I want to design my own custom board using spi nor flash of 128Mbit => 16Mx8bit.

The reason to chose the spi nor flash is that I already have so many spi nor flash chips in my inventory. 

Now I want to program the spi nor flash using the same method as mentioned above from point 1 to point 6 but i cant find any bootloader project that supports spi nor flash nor any .cfg file for it.

1)           Also, I would need a reference schematic to how to connect my spi nor flash with omapl-138 especially its 'Chip select' because in .cfg file nothing is mentioned regarding the chip select of spi. which is actually creating a discrepancy for the connection of my spi nor flash with omapl-138.

2)           Also, I have found out the evmOMAPL-138 bootloader project available in omapl-138 starterware can resolve my issue?

 

Please clarify my both point 1) and point 2).

I am using MT25QL128 spi nor flash from MICRON. thanks
