Software should be coming out soon!

Postby gsxrex » Tue Mar 09, 2010 10:08 pm

So, we accidentally forgot to push out the software for FlashShield 1.0 that enables the 16Mbit dataflash. We've been pretty busy doing a lot of different tasks (not the least of which are busy day jobs), and somehow we missed it. :oops:

Anyhoo, we're in the process of cleaning the code up, and should have it out before week's end. It'll come complete with examples on how to interface with the flash.

Sorry about that.

Thanks! The on board flash is pretty interesting! Can't wait to have a need for one and to see software updates ;)

Sorry for the extra week delay. BenQuark has been extremely busy, so I've had to help him out with some of the code. Unfortunately, this also meant a quick crash course in getting github working correctly on my system again.

Anyhoo, we've created a new dataflash library on GitHub. You can pull it via the links that are provided on the wiki:
http://asynclabs.com/wiki/index.php?title=Dataflash_library

Note that it is pretty basic at the moment, but it has the necessary items to access the flash. It is tagged as v1.0.0. Please report any issues here so that we can take a look. The reading of the manufacturer ID from the flash is a pretty good starting point, as it's a known value (1F 26).

dataflash_intro is hanging at "dflash.Buffer_To_Page(1, lastpage); //write the buffer to the memory on page: lastpage"
lastpage is 0;
