Dear forum,

I have a HW-platform using the LPC2220(flashless) with connected ext.flash "EN29lv800b" on the external memory controller on CS0. (16-bit)

I tried to use the JLINK-Commander Tool to flash the above flash-memory with a .bin file.(with an appropriate script)

The script included the ext.CFI definition AND the workarea-RAM definition.

The following error is returned after trying to flash the device:
>>>

****** Error: Could not find CFI compliant flash device

Target system has not enough RAM.
<<<

my question is, does the "JLINK Commander" utility support flashing of ext.CFI devices ?
if yes, is the EN29lv800b recognized as a CFI?

Who else has experience in using JLINK.exe as a one-time flasher?

Is there a CFI probe command to use?

(In addition, i am using the same arrangement as well in the IAR Workbench, but not work as well)

I am able to supply the related script/log-files on request.

Thank you for inputs...

AddOn Info:

I now tried the J-Flash utility with correct init for CS0. This program supports a CFI probe command.
Again, could not read the DeviceIDs correct value and complained.

I then went ahead to write a little program to try to read the flash chips deviceid as specified in the datasheet:

>>>>>
//enable CS0 on the CPU
BCFG0 = 0x10000420; //BCFG0: 16bit, rble, 2wst - 30 mhz : Betty: FLASH 0 @ 0x80000000

#define FLASH1_BASE 0x80000000

//NOTE: the Offset is added to a WORD-pointer, so actually its (Offset * 2) to give effective address!!

unsigned short w;

//read manufacturer ID, works
*((volatile unsigned short *) FLASH1_BASE + 0x555) = 0xAA; //effective address(as to disassembler-debugger) = 0x80000AAA
*((volatile unsigned short *) FLASH1_BASE + 0x2AA) = 0x55; //effective address = 0x80000554
*((volatile unsigned short *) FLASH1_BASE + 0x555) = 0x90; //effective address = 0x80000AAA
w = *((volatile unsigned short *) FLASH1_BASE + 0x100); //effective address = 0x80000200; reads 0x001C, the correct manufacturer-id
//read deviceid , works
(*((volatile unsigned short *) FLASH1_BASE)) = 0xF0; //reset flash chip

*((volatile unsigned short *) FLASH1_BASE + 0x555) = 0xAA; //effective address = 0x80000AAA
*((volatile unsigned short *) FLASH1_BASE + 0x2AA) = 0x55; //effective address = 0x80000554
*((volatile unsigned short *) FLASH1_BASE + 0x555) = 0x90; //effective address = 0x80000AAA
w = *((volatile unsigned short *) FLASH1_BASE + 0x01); //effective address = 0x80000002; reads 0x225B, the correct deviceid!
(*((volatile unsigned short *) FLASH1_BASE)) = 0xF0; //reset flash chip

This did indeed work to read the flash IDs. So i assume there is no Hardware fault on the target.
