| Atmel AT45DB041 write & read data problem -- CCS Driver |
 Posted: Tue Nov 20, 2012 2:04 pm |

|
Hello Guys
My problem is as follows, using the CCS provided at45db041.c driver.
Writing a byte (int8) of 240 dec or 0b1111 0000 to the EEPROM returns 249 or 0b1111 1001 .
When I write data that change the lower nibble then the driver work correctly - 248 dec or 0b1111 1000 work perfect, or 0b1111 1010 works perfect.
Why will the lower nibble be changed to 1001 when its actual value is 0000 ?
Thank you.
Code as follow :

No one have problems with this, or alternative driver ?
I'm using a Olimex board, if it was my own board I wouldn't have installed such an eeprom for my application.

Start with a simple correction to what you _say_. This is _not_ a "CCS provided at45db041.c driver". It is something you have found probably based on some posts here in the forum, modified from the 45db021 driver.
You don't tell us what compiler version you are using, or what PIC. Affects things a lot. You don't show us the code you are using to test this.
Seriously though, if you look at the code, some parts are going to be dreadfully slow. Basically the routines to send/receive bytes and words, using bit test is about the slowest way to do this. Better ways are:
1) Simply rotate the byte/word and test a fixed bit. About a dozen times faster.
2) Use the CCS supplied SPI library.
3) Use hardware SPI.
Why they don't do this is probably down to wanting to make the code easy to understand, rather than in any way 'well written'...
Now there is nothing obvious that would give bit problems (and especially not in only the low nibble). However using bit test the way they do, outputs will be faster as you move down the byte/word, which might have something to do with this. If so it possibly suggests a level problem with the voltages between your PIC and the ROM, and signals being very slow to actually cross a detection threshold. Back to what PIC.

Hello Ttelmah -
I modified the at45db041 driver from CCS --
#define FLASH_BUFFER_SIZE 264 //bytes per page
#define FLASH_BUFFER_COUNT 4096 //page count
to this for the AT45DBD011 instead of AT45DB041
#ifndef FLASH_BUFFER_SIZE
#define FLASH_BUFFER_SIZE 264 // bytes per page
#define FLASH_BUFFER_COUNT 512 // page count
#endif
I agree, using the hardware SPI is much better, but first wanted to make the code work and then optimize for performance.
Like you indicated it is maybe best the just start the driver from scratch.
The code u used to test as follow --
| Code: |
struct _dataset
{
int8 val_int;
long val_long;
};
struct _dataset set1, set2;
char buff [sizeof(set1)];
char buffrcv [sizeof(set2)];
set1.val_int = 2;
set1.val_long = 65520;
memcpy(buff,&set1,sizeof(buff));
ext_flash_erasePage(0);
ext_flash_writeBytes(0x00000000, buff, sizeof(buff));
ext_flash_readBytes(0x00000000, buffrcv, sizeof(buffrcv));
// memcpy(buffrcv,buff,sizeof(buffrcv));
memcpy(&set2, buffrcv, sizeof(set2));
/* Function Start */
for( ; ;)
{
// menu();
printf("set2.val_int:%u\r\n",set2.val_int);
printf("set2.val_long:%Lu\r\n",set2.val_long);
printf("\r\n");
delay_ms(1000);
}//for

I'm using the Olimex Maxi Web board based on PIC18F97J60.
The EEPROM does work with the Microchip Stack - loaded when you buy the board, pictures and html pages stored in the EEPROM.
I think from a hardware perspective all is ok ?

You don't have to rewrite the whole driver to use hardware SPI. Only the actual routines that send data to/fro. Under 20 lines of code in all.
Again though you talk about modifying "the at45db041 driver from CCS". There is no at45db041 driver from CCS.....

The AT45DB041 driver from CCS is included in the CCS TCP/IP stack.
This is the code I published online, from the TCP/IP stack add-on.

Hello --
I finally found the problem, the flash chip used in the board im using is of a very old revision, the opcode's used in the driver is in some cases not recognized by the revision of the chip -- at45db011A compared to D revision opcodes used.
Thnx
