Azure RTOS FileX/LevelX reference for NOR/NAND

DeffoWill — Thu, 07 Apr 2022 09:58:17 GMT

Hello,

I want to use FileX/LevelX as a file system on the RT1170 EVK, do you have any experience/reference designs available for this on the NOR/NAND flash available for the on-board NAND/NOR flash?

I have had an attempt of using the NOR flash with level/filex myself, but I am struggling to get good enough read/write performance, do you have any numbers on expected performance for these devices?

Any help would be appreciated

thanks

Hi @DeffoWill ,

All the Azure code for RT1170 can be found for:

SDK_2_11_1_MIMXRT1170-EVK\boards\evkmimxrt1170\azure_rtos_examples

Unfortunately, until now, we still don't have FileX/LevelX as a file system based on flash on the RT1170 EVK.

About the flash program and read, you can use the sdk rom api code:

SDK_2_11_1_MIMXRT1170-EVK\boards\evkmimxrt1170\driver_examples\fsl_romapi

About the performance, you can test the program, read, erase time.

Wish it helps you!

Best Regards,

Kerry

Hello @DeffoWill,

would you be able to provide us with the code you created to test the FileX+LevelX features? I would like to try to run it on my end and analyze the performance. We can handle this privately if you have concerns about sharing the code on the public community.

Best Regards,

David
