K64 & K66 family devices support for NOR Flash & PSRAM

[praveenkajjam]

Hello,

Will K64 & K66 family devices support the interface for NOR Flash & PSRAM over the FlexBus? I am not able to find any design reference in Reference Manual. We have a requirement to use the MT38W1011A90YZQXZI.XB8

combo memory in our design from Micron.

Thanks & Regards,

Praveen Kajjam.

Hi Praveen,

The TWR-MEM module includes a SRAM device, and it can work with other tower boards likes the TWR-K60D100 to read or write the SRAM chip.

Hello Jeremyzhou,

            My question is not regarding SRAM. I want to interface NOR Flash and PSRAM over FlexBus. Planning to use this chip from Micron. Will K64& K66 support interface to this device over FlexBus?

Thanks & Regards,

Praveen Kajjam

Hi Praveen,

The FlexBus interface can support the single NOR Flash or PSRAM device, however about the MT38W1011A90YZQXZI, the FlexBus interface will fail to support the some operation with the NOR Flash and PSRAM simultaneously.

Hello Jeremy,

            Thanks for your confirmation. Anyhow we are going to use either NOR flash or PSRAM as the address & data bus is multiplexed between them. But I did pin comparison of the combo memory chip with the FlexBus of K64, I found that it perfectly meets the interface requirements for PSRAM but not fully meets interface requirements for NOR Flash. Refer the below table for the same. Cells highlighted (NOT_WP, NOR_RP, NOR_CLK and NOR_WAIT) in orange are not supported from FlexBus. Any guidance on how to handle them (Especially NOR-WAIT)? If you have any reference schematics with NOR Flash interface that will be useful.
