FX3S Raid1 on Chip USB 3.0 Dongle version 1.0 - FX3S Raid1 Application issue

[asrac_1545771]

Hi,

I am using Cypress FX3S USB Dongle Rev 1.0 Hardware.

This has Two SD card connections. one USB 3.0 host connection.

I am using EzUsb Eclipse IDE for building FX3SMassStorage Application,

When I load this fx3sMassStorage Application to FX3S using Cypress Control center,

I am getting two FAT Partitions/Drive each 1.8GB, as I am using 4GB SD card on either SD socket.

When FX3SMassStorage Application is loaded, Only Primary SD card two 1.8GB FAT partitions in detecting ,

But Secondary 4GB card's two FAT partitions is not mounted or detected in MyComputer.

When I Download the Debug/Release raid1 .img to FX3S using Cypress Control center,

I am not getting any Mass Storage Drive in My Computer and/or Storage Drives in Computer Management.

In This I connected two 4GB SD card on both SD card sockets in FX3S.

But Both cards are detecting in Transcend Card Reader.

I am facing this Raid1 Partition or Drive of FX3S is not showing in Windows 7 MyComputer and/or Storages in Computer Management.

But when I load FX3S MassStorage Application first and then do button reset on FX3S and Load FX3S Raid1 Application using cy control center,

I am getting one 1.8GB FAT Partition in My computer, But another 1.8GB Raid1 FAT partition is not detecting.

I am using below

Hi Ashok,

When you use RAID Dongle hardware to test FX3SMassStorage application, then please make the following changes:

1. Change the intfParams.voltageSwGpio of first S port to 12 and the other to 13.

2. If your card has one partition then, you need to change the macro CY_FX_SIB_PARTITIONS to 1.

2. Before intfParams and after GpioInit add the following code:

----------------------------------------------

gpio = 14;

status = CyU3PDeviceGpioOverride (gpio, CyTrue);

if (status != 0)

{

/* Error Handling */

CyU3PDebugPrint (4, "CyU3PDeviceGpioOverride failed, error code = %d\n",

status);

CyFxAppErrorHandler(status);

}

/* Configure GPIO as output */

gpioConfig.outValue = CyTrue;

gpioConfig.driveLowEn = CyTrue;

gpioConfig.driveHighEn = CyTrue;

gpioConfig.inputEn = CyFalse;

gpioConfig.intrMode = CY_U3P_GPIO_NO_INTR;

status = CyU3PGpioSetSimpleConfig(gpio, &gpioConfig);

if (status != CY_U3P_SUCCESS)

{

/* Error handling */

CyU3PDebugPrint (4, "CyU3PGpioSetSimpleConfig failed, error code = %d\n",

status);

CyFxAppErrorHandler(status);

}

gpio = 15;

status = CyU3PDeviceGpioOverride (gpio, CyTrue);

if (status != 0)

{

/* Error Handling */

CyU3PDebugPrint (4, "CyU3PDeviceGpioOverride failed, error code = %d\n",

status);

CyFxAppErrorHandler(status);

}

status = CyU3PGpioSetSimpleConfig(gpio, &gpioConfig);

if (status != CY_U3P_SUCCESS)

{

/* Error handling */

CyU3PDebugPrint (4, "CyU3PGpioSetSimpleConfig failed, error code = %d\n",

status);

CyFxAppErrorHandler(status);

}

gpio = 12;

status = CyU3PDeviceGpioOverride (gpio, CyTrue);

if (status != 0)

{

/* Error Handling */

CyU3PDebugPrint (4, "CyU3PDeviceGpioOverride failed, error code = %d\n",

status);

CyFxAppErrorHandler(status);

}

gpioConfig.outValue = CyTrue;

status = CyU3PGpioSetSimpleConfig(gpio, &gpioConfig);

if (status != CY_U3P_SUCCESS)

{

/* Error handling */

CyU3PDebugPrint (4, "CyU3PGpioSetSimpleConfig failed, error code = %d\n",

status);

CyFxAppErrorHandler(status);

}

gpio = 13;

status = CyU3PDeviceGpioOverride (gpio, CyTrue);

if (status != 0)

{

/* Error Handling */

CyU3PDebugPrint (4, "CyU3PDeviceGpioOverride failed, error code = %d\n",

status);

CyFxAppErrorHandler(status);

}

gpioConfig.outValue = CyTrue;

status = CyU3PGpioSetSimpleConfig(gpio, &gpioConfig);

if (status != CY_U3P_SUCCESS)

{

        /* Error handling */

        CyU3PDebugPrint (4, "CyU3PGpioSetSimpleConfig failed, error code = %d\n",

        status);

        CyFxAppErrorHandler(status);

}

3. Regarding the RAID1 application note firmware: Kindly format both the cards with only one partition in each card and then load the application note firmware. Then it is expected that you see one card coming up.
