Reset Issue with MX27 Solved
December 6th, 2008
We are able to solve the Reset Issue with MX27, that I had reported to have found in my previous blog . We had used a Spansion MCP NOR Flash, similar to the MX27 ADS board. The board failed to start communicating with the NOR Flash every time.
We also observed that that the Processor does boot every time. It just fails to start getting the First code from the Flash IC.
The solution required slightly expensive novel way. If you are interested in the solution, you may contact me at referencedesigner@yahoo.com.
I believe that we could have used a better Flash. A NAND only flash could also be a low cost solution instead of the expensive Multichip Product (MCP) NOR Flash of S71 series of the Spansion.
