Hi,

I am using STM32F429ZET6 controller in my custom board. I have used JS28F00AM29EWHA Nor flash from micron.The interface between the controller and external nor is a parallel bus. I have made FMC_Init and GPIO_Init in the following way. I have refereed the

 from st for fsmc. I have also cross verified the code from 

https://community.st.com/0D50X00009XkZtLSAV

. My issue is I get wrong manufacturer code and device_id. And also checked with the write and read functionality, but when I reset my debug session and read the previously written addresses I always get zero's. I am not getting where I am going wrong. Any help or suggestion will be of great help.

My issue is I get wrong manufacturer code and device_id

So what does it read? If the data bus is wrong then the chip is unlikely to recognize the commands sent to it.

Have you thoroughly reviewed the schematic design?

Have you thoroughly reviewed the schematic design?

One remark for debugging: parallel memories can be easily 'bit-banged', ie. the protocol can be easily tested by 'manually' manipulating the address/data/control lines, with pins set as GPIO inputs/outputs as appropriate, rather than AF.

This can be done from the debugger, without a single line of code.

Hi Clive,

When I read the device and manufacturer id, I get both as 0x90 which is not the right value. Data and address lines are configured properly as per the schematic. Please find below schematics.

Hi JW,

I am not getting how to proceed. Could you please elaborate on the method you mentioned in your reply.

Regards,

Shravan

Instead of setting up the FMC and the pins for FMC, simply set all the pins connected to the memory as GPIO inputs or outputs, and manipulate them 'manually'.

This is just a way to find out whether all the connections are OK, without the risk of the FMC being misconfigured.

Hi,

Thanks for the quick response. I will check and get back to you.
