I am using a AT91SAM9261 and external (AT49BV160D 1Mx16 NOR flash) in my target. I plan on using the flash as boot & program memory so the flash /CE is connected to NCS0. I have not been able to program the flash memory. The closest I have gotten is every other word (address 0, 4, 8, 12, 16 etc) when programming with Seggers JFlash program through the JTAG port. I have been able to co...

I'm currently reviewing the Embedded Flash Controller for the AT91SAM7S256. I understand that there's only one Erase Command (Erase All) that 'only' erases the entire flash and cancels if any of the pages were locked. Does anyone know any methods/workarounds for erasing individual pages/sectors of the flash? Many thanks, Leighton

All, I'm looking for people who have experience with programming the flash on the new AT91SAM7X512 chips. Specifically, programming it using the two internal flash controllers (AT91C_MC_FCR0 and 1). I believe we are seeing a problem where using the chip to self-program results in damage to the chip that ultimately prevents any further flashing of flash plane 0. This is not happenin...

Hi, I`m working with the AT91SAM9260 controller and I try to download some code by the jtag interface to the external NOR flash (connected at NCS0).

Therefore I think the bootloader / controller is working there should ...

Are you still installing other interrupts? If you have just the tick interrupt running, do the flash tasks now execute= ? Can you place a break point in the flash task to be double sure it is not running. Regards, Rich
