Hello nxp,
I need to use flexio to emulate qspi interface to use nor flash. I want to know if there are any method to program the flash directly similar to how ISP mode work.
I have gone through the reference manual briefly, it does seem that MCX does not enable direct interaction with a qspi on flexio, only with flexspi that can support this feature.

Are there any existing tools offered by nxp that can allow this feature?


I have also checked the AN14175 regarding using flexio to emulate qspi.

I would like to ask what are the differences between interrupt mode flexio qspi and edma mode flexio qspi. What are their respective performance and what are the use cases for each mode.

Hi @TomC818 

Can I program the NOR Flash via FlexIO-QSPI like ISP does with FlexSPI?

No, not directly.  ISP support external flash programming only through FlexSPI, not via FlexIO-emulated QSPI.

The ROM bootloader (ISP) in MCX does not recognize or support FlexIO as a programmable interface.
