Topic: The Damn Nand Flash
Hi guys, first of all kudos to all of you at chumby ind. !!! Great work!
I'm developing an MX21 based module starting from the ADS schematics. The first attempt busted because of all bga design and a third party manufacturer that didn't know what to do with all these balls.... The second one is doin' good but last week i found the impossibility to program the flash (with the very bad HAB toolkit from freescale.... you surely know!!) I checked all the signals and routing and parsed the datasheet between the samsung flash parts, BGA and TSOP just to find just ONE difference.... I almost lost my sight to soldering little wires to the .5 mm pins to check with an oscope when i stumbled across your schematics and the AND gate on the signals!!!! Is that the panacea? I hope so, with a little luck I can arrange to solder on the fly the gate and program the flash!!!
Tell me that is true please!
AH.. we wrote an OLED framebuffer driver for the MX21....
Final application: highres user interface for household appliances (big european manufacturer). Due to cost reasons this is starting as a research project. but I am interested in writing some widget to control ovens and washing machines (for now) with the Chumby. Am I eligible for a sample?
