Winbond W25Q80BV Support spifilib LPCLink2 Board

Hi,

Does anybody have a working example of reading/programming the Winbond W25Q80BZ SPIFI FLASH device fitted on the LPCLink2 board?

I followed the procedure outlined in the PDF accompanying the latest libspifi 0.6 beta library and the device seems to register okay but when I call the spifiGetHandleMemSize as per the example, the code 'hangs'. It appears that the device is not detected. I tried swapping the JEDEC Device ID bytes over 0x4014 to 0x1440 but that made no difference.

A working example would speed things up for me. Any help gratefully received. Since this is the device fitted to the LPCLink2 board and I am using two LPCLink2 boards to do some LPC4370 development, I guess that a working example would be generally useful.

Thanks in anticipation.

Thank you. We are using W25Q80BV. I think that I just made an error and copied "BZ" from a previous post.

Hi rockyh,
Yes, this flash algorithm can program/erase W25Q80B and W25Q80DV. What is W25Q80B[color=#f03]Z[/color]? Can you please share datasheet?

It is Keil uVision 4.22.  I have "SPIFI on LPC18xx/43xx @ 14000000, Ext. Flash SPI, 64M" Programming Algorithm selected.

Hi Rockyh,
Which IDE are you using with Keil uLink2?

I choose the W25Q80BZ to be used on our boards, and our plan for prototype board is programming it with Keil ULINK2. I think their flash algorithm uses the SPIFILIB to program devices, but perhaps an older version...(does older version of SPILIB work to program this device?) Has anybody that has worked with this flash device on SPIFI used Keil Ulink to program it?
Thanks

Yes, I can confirm that the device boots okay. I have done some more work on this and have got some code "more or less" working. I can program 2 out of 10 bytes successfully. I am attaching the exported zip archive so if someone could take a look and tell me where I am going wrong - I would be grateful. The Winbond W25Q80BV does not support the clear status command or some of the status bits so I have modified the library.

Ok, Thank you.
I think I understand that its just that SPIFILIB cannot program W25Q80 in version 6. When do you anticipate update to SPFILIB?

Hi rockyh,
Yes.

mc,
Is the 4330 Boot ROM able to boot from W25Q80?
Thanks

Hi RedbarnDesigner,
The spifilib version 06 does not support W25Q80BZ. We are working on that and will release new version.

We have an example with old spifi lib(No source available). Please find attached an old spifi lib example for LPC1830 Xplorer board based on old CMSIS.

You can use it on LPC4370.
