Example project that shows how to interface to a RAMTRON FM25V10 (1Mbit) or FM25H20 (2Mbit) SPI F-RAM Memory. These have the advantages of:
- Low power than FLASH.
- Faster write performance (there are no write delays).
- Much larger umber of write cycles (at least 100 trillion).
Uses a light weight SPI interface.
Provides a low level interface, so the client manages the data directly on the F-RAM.
You can read and write to it using xflash/flashlib and a suitalbe SPI-spec file, but this is a lightweight interface for fast access to it. The XCore can boot from it as if it was a normal FLASH.
The example project shows how to (by commenting in/out the appropriate options in main()):
- test the memory by writing data (0x00, 0x55, 0xFF) and verifying the contents of the F-RAM.
- read the contents of the F-RAM and printing it to the terminal.
- write a binary file to the F-RAM (e.g. the XK-1 FLASH firmware in example/xk-1.bin).
None, although the interface to the F-RAM could be sped up, by using clock blocks and buffered ports.
None.
