Nor Flash Forum Discussions

What are the thermal resistances junction-to-ambient, junction-to-case, junction-to-board, etc. of S29PL127J70BFI040 ?
What is absolute maximum junction temperature ?

Hi,

Currently I am using S25FL256S SPI Flash Memory to interface with FPGA and to hold the FPGA image. When I need to update the FPGA image, I have to reprogram the Flash Memory via Xilinx's software tool, JTAG cable, and FPGA.

Is there a Flash Memory that is accessible by PCIe bus and has all the I/Os for interfacing with FPGA? I want to reprogram the Flash Memory via the PCIe bus, not through Xilinx's tool, JTAG and FPGA. Once the Flash Memory is programmed, power cycling should load the image from Flash Memory to the FPGA.

Any suggestion?

  Thanks,

Jason

The latest datasheet for the S25FS256T 256Mb SEMPER™ Nano Flash has the description below at the end of Section 5.6.  Does anyone have a clear definition of what "bit-walking" means in this context?

      Device will do 1-bit error correction and 2-bit error detection. The 16-byte unit data requires a 9-bit Error
      Correction Code for 2-bit error detection. Any 1-bit error in a data unit is corrected and any 2-bit error is detected
      and reported. Byte-programming, bit-walking, or multiple program operations to the same ECC data unit
      (without an erase) are not allowed and inputted data will not be programmed correctly.

Hi,

We have planned to use the NOR flash (S70GL02GS12FHIV20) for our image storage application.

In the ordering information of the datasheet, 02 indicates that  Vcc=2.7V to 3.6V , Lower address sector protected.

1) what does this sector protection implies? Does this mean that during powered on, lower address of all the sectors are protected?

2) what is higher or lower address sector protection ? what is the functionality? Kindly brief them.

Dear Team

I am using Parallel NOR Flash memory part : S70GL02GS12FHIV20 in our application. From datasheet, we can able to understand that, V2 - Corresponds to lowest address sector protected. Below are my query:

1. How much memory size does it protect? - Does it protect entire 1Gb or few bits. Please confirm

2. What will be maximum PCB routing length for address lines , data lines and Control signals lines?

Hi,

I need a guru to help me here. We bought a bunch of Cypress flash memories S34ML04G204BHI01 and we also have some Cypress S34ML04G204BHI003 from the past. I couldn't find the S34ML04G204BHI003 online anymore, I am assuming it's end of life. My question is what the difference is between S34ML04G204BHI01 and S34ML04G204BHI003? Is there any firmware change required from S34ML04G204BHI003 to S34ML04G204BHI01 at all?
