Speed difference between 8 or 16 bit nand flash

Does anyone have some real data on speed difference between 8 or 16 bit Nand flash (with the bootloader and the kernel) on the STM32MP157 ?

  • at boot
  • during normal operation

Hello,

here are some figures (to give an idea) we did some time ago on kernel side. As you can see, it is highly depending on NAND used:

SLC NAND on read operations:

  • The Kernel is more optimized with ONFI SLC NAND:
    • Micron x8 we could reach 11 to 12 MB/s
    • Micron x16 we could reach 16 to 17 MB/s
  • For non ONFI devices, only kernel default timings:
    • Toshiba x8 we could reach 6 MB/s
