Write program to the QSPI-NOR on i.MX 7D SABRE-SDB with MFG-Tool

[eishishibusawa]

Dear Sir

I want to ask you abut MFG-Tool.

I downloaded the MFG-Tool (Linux 4.1.15) from the following URL.

http://www.nxp.com/products/microcontrollers-and-processors/arm-processors/i.mx-applications-process...

http://www.nxp.com/products/microcontrollers-and-processors/arm-processors/i.mx-applications-process...

i.MX Software and Development Tools|NXP 

I tried to write the program to the QSPI-NOR by using the VBScript of MFG-Tool.

(Please refer to the IMX7D-SABRE_QSPI-NOR_Write VBScript.PNG)

It occurred an error.

(Please refer to the IMX-SABRE_Write error.PNG and IMX7D-SABRE_QSPI-NOR_Write error_Log.tex)

For reference, I tried to write the program to QSPI-NOR by using the VBScript of MFG-Tool.

There is no error.

Is it able to program the QSPI-NOR on IMX7D SABRE-SDB by using MFG-Tool?

Best Regard,

Eishi SHIBUSAWA

Dear Rita

Thank you for your support.

Customer is trying to modify the board for booting from QSPI-NOR.

We can not find the R398.

Could you send me materials that understand the location of R398.

(Layout file or Silk file)

Hi Eishi SHIBUSAWA,

Are you using this version L4.1.15_2.0.0-ga_mfg-tools.tar.gz mfgtool and with the demo images? I am downloading it and try it on my board.

Have a nice day

Dear Rita

Thank you for your reply.

I tried by using  version L4.1.15_2.0.0-ga.

But it is not able to flash QSPI-NOR.

Could you flash QSPI-NOR on IMX7D SABRE-SDB by using version L4.1.15_2.0.0-ga?

Best Regards,

Hi Eishi SHIBUSAWA,

I have tested it on my board. The board and default BSP are boot up from EPDC. Here you want to boot up from QSPI, When using QSPI, you need tode-populate R388-R391, R396-R399 and populate R392-R395, R299, R300 in your hard ware.QSPI signals are muxed with EPDC_D[7:0].

In your above error message you can see that the system can not find and detect the qspi, so can not excute the following code,<CMD state="body="$ flash_erase /dev/mtd0 0 20">Erasing Boot partition</CMD>Updater" type="push" .

In a word, it's the hardware problem, you need do a little change. And it will work fine.
Have a great day,
Rita
