Description

Driver API for NAND Flash Device Interface (Driver_NAND.h).

NAND devices are a type of non-volatile storage and do not require power to hold data. Wikipedia offers more information about the Flash Memories, including NAND.

Block Diagram**

Simplified NAND Flash Schematic

NAND API**

The following header files define the Application Programming Interface (API) for the NAND interface:

Driver_NAND.h : Driver API for NAND Flash Device Interface

The driver implementation is a typical part of the Device Family Pack (DFP) that supports the peripherals of the microcontroller family.

Driver Functions**

The driver functions are published in the access struct as explained in Common Driver Functions

ARM_DRIVER_NAND : access struct for NAND driver functions

Data Structure Documentation

struct ARM_NAND_STATUS

NAND Status.

Structure with information about the status of a NAND. The data fields encode flags for the driver.

Returned by:

ARM_NAND_GetStatus

Data Fields
uint32_t	busy: 1	Driver busy flag.
uint32_t	ecc_error: 1	ECC error detected (cleared on next Read/WriteData or ExecuteSequence)
uint32_t	reserved: 30

struct ARM_DRIVER_NAND

Access structure of the NAND Driver.

The functions of the NAND driver are accessed by function pointers exposed by this structure. Refer to Common Driver Functions for overview information.

Each instance of a NAND interface provides such an access structure. The instance is identified by a postfix number in the symbol name of the access structure, for example:

Driver_NAND0 is the name of the access struct of the first instance (no. 0).
Driver_NAND1 is the name of the access struct of the second instance (no. 1).

A middleware configuration setting allows connecting the middleware to a specific driver instance Driver_NANDn. The default is 0, which connects a middleware to the first instance of a driver.

Progress of the operation can also be monitored by calling the ARM_NAND_GetStatus function and checking the busy data field. Operation is automatically aborted if ECC is used and ECC correction fails, which generates the ARM_NAND_EVENT_ECC_ERROR event (together with ARM_NAND_DRIVER_DONE_EVENT if enabled).

int32_t ARM_NAND_WriteData	(	uint32_t	dev_num,

ARM_NAND_DRIVER_DONE_EVENT	Generate ARM_NAND_EVENT_DRIVER_DONE

The data item size is defined by the data type, which depends on the configured data bus width.

Data type is:

uint8_t for 8-bit data bus
uint16_t for 16-bit data bus

The function executes in the following ways:

When the operation is blocking (typical for devices connected to memory bus when not using DMA), then the function returns after all data is written and returns the number of data items written.
When the operation is non-blocking (typical for NAND controllers), then the function only starts the operation and returns with zero number of data items written. After the operation is completed, the ARM_NAND_EVENT_DRIVER_DONE event is generated (if enabled by ARM_NAND_DRIVER_DONE_EVENT). Progress of the operation can also be monitored by calling the ARM_NAND_GetStatus function and checking the busy data field. Operation is automatically aborted if ECC is used and ECC generation fails, which generates the ARM_NAND_EVENT_ECC_ERROR event (together with ARM_NAND_DRIVER_DONE_EVENT if enabled).

When the operation is completed, the ARM_NAND_EVENT_DRIVER_DONE event is generated (if enabled by ARM_NAND_DRIVER_DONE_EVENT). Progress of the operation can also be monitored by calling the ARM_NAND_GetStatus function and checking the busy data field.

Driver executes the number of specified iterations where in each iteration items specified by ARM_NAND_CODE_xxx are executed in the order as listed in the table Sequence execution Code. The parameter count is holding the current number of iterations left.

Execution is automatically aborted and ARM_NAND_EVENT_DRIVER_DONE event is generated (if enabled by ARM_NAND_DRIVER_DONE_EVENT):

if Read Status is enabled and the FAIL bit (bit 0) is set
if ECC is used and ECC fails (also sets ARM_NAND_EVENT_ECC_ERROR event)

Note: ARM_NAND_CODE_WAIT_BUSY can only be specified if the Device Ready event can be generated (reported by event_device_ready in ARM_NAND_CAPABILITIES). The event ARM_NAND_EVENT_DEVICE_READY is not generated during sequence execution but rather used internally by the driver.

ARM_NAND_STATUS ARM_NAND_GetStatus ( uint32_t dev_num )

The function ARM_NAND_GetStatus returns the current NAND device status.

The parameter dev_num is the device number.

int32_t ARM_NAND_InquireECC	(	int32_t	index,
		ARM_NAND_ECC_INFO *	info
	)

Inquire about available ECC.

Parameters

[in]	index	Device number
[out]	info	Pointer to ECC information ARM_NAND_ECC_INFO retrieved

Returns: Status Error Codes

The function reads error correction code information.

The parameter index is the device number.
The parameter info is a pointer of type ARM_NAND_ECC_INFO. The data fields store the information.

void ARM_NAND_SignalEvent	(	uint32_t	dev_num,
		uint32_t	event
	)

Signal NAND event.

Parameters

[in]	dev_num	Device number
[in]	event	Event notification mask

Returns: none

The function ARM_NAND_SignalEvent is a callback function registered by the function ARM_NAND_Initialize.

The parameter dev_num is the device number.
The parameter event indicates one or more events that occurred during driver operation. Each event is encoded in a separate bit and therefore it is possible to signal multiple events within the same call.

Not every event is necessarily generated by the driver. This depends on the implemented capabilities stored in the data fields of the structure ARM_NAND_CAPABILITIES, which can be retrieved with the function ARM_NAND_GetCapabilities.

The following events can be generated:

Parameter event	Bit	Description
ARM_NAND_EVENT_DEVICE_READY	0	Occurs when rising edge is detected on R/Bn (Ready/Busy) pin indicating that the device is ready.
ARM_NAND_EVENT_DRIVER_READY	1	Occurs to indicate that commands can be executed (after previously being busy and not able to start the requested operation).
ARM_NAND_EVENT_DRIVER_DONE	2	Occurs after an operation completes. An operation was successfully started before with ARM_NAND_ReadData, ARM_NAND_WriteData, ARM_NAND_ExecuteSequence.
ARM_NAND_EVENT_ECC_ERROR	3	Occurs when ECC generation failed or ECC correction failed. An operation was successfully started before with ARM_NAND_ReadData, ARM_NAND_WriteData, ARM_NAND_ExecuteSequence.

The event ARM_NAND_EVENT_DEVICE_READY occurs after complete execution of commands (initiated with the functions ARM_NAND_SendCommand, ARM_NAND_SendAddress, ARM_NAND_ReadData, ARM_NAND_WriteData, ARM_NAND_ExecuteSequence). It is useful to indicate completion of complex operations (such as erase). The event is only generated when ARM_NAND_GetCapabilities returns data field event_device_ready = 1 and was enabled by calling ARM_NAND_Control (ARM_NAND_DEVICE_READY_EVENT, 1). If the event is not available, poll the busy data field using the function ARM_NAND_GetStatus.

The event ARM_NAND_EVENT_DRIVER_READY occurs when previously a function (ARM_NAND_SendCommand, ARM_NAND_SendAddress, ARM_NAND_ReadData, ARM_NAND_WriteData, ARM_NAND_ExecuteSequence) returned with ARM_DRIVER_ERROR_BUSY. It is useful when functions are called simultaneously from independent threads (for example to control multiple devices) and the threads have no knowledge about each other (driver rejects reentrant calls with return of ARM_DRIVER_ERROR_BUSY). dev_num indicates the device that returned previously busy.
