Conquering H7-TOOL One-to-Four Offline Programming

Conquering H7-TOOL One-to-Four Offline Programming

This year on February 7th, the first version of the H7-TOOL offline programmer was released, followed by hybrid programming on March 13th. Today, we have officially conquered one-to-four parallel programming, allowing for offline synchronous programming of four chips. The video below demonstrates the H7-TOOL simultaneously programming four H750 devices with a 46KB boot + 685KB … Read more

Differences and Similarities Between SPI and QSPI: What is the QSPI Protocol and Its Applications

Differences and Similarities Between SPI and QSPI: What is the QSPI Protocol and Its Applications

1. What is QSPI? The SPI protocol actually includes three types of protocol interfaces: Standard SPI, Dual SPI, and Queued SPI, corresponding to 3-wire, 4-wire, and 6-wire configurations respectively. (1) Typically, when we refer to SPI, we mean Standard SPI, which has 4 signal lines: CLK, CS, MOSI, and MISO. The data line operates in … Read more

Introduction to Key Points of SPI Hardware Design

Introduction to Key Points of SPI Hardware Design

Today, we will introduce the widely used SPI communication between PCB boards, striving to minimize the introduction of overly textual definitions and instead use straightforward language to explain. Definition: SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) is a type of serial synchronous communication, which is mostly full-duplex (but it can also be half-duplex), primarily used in chips such … Read more

Advanced SPI Communication Techniques: From Four-Wire to Quad SPI, Daisy Chain Solutions to Double Your Project Speed!

Advanced SPI Communication Techniques: From Four-Wire to Quad SPI, Daisy Chain Solutions to Double Your Project Speed!

1. Independent Chip Select (Standard Multi-Slave Mode) Solution Description: Each slave device is assigned an independent SS (chip select) line, and the master device activates the target slave by pulling down the corresponding SS line.Advantages: Each slave is independently controlled, and communication does not interfere with each other. Supports full-duplex high-speed transmission.Disadvantages: The number of … Read more

Q&A with Experts: Unable to Program QSPI Flash in Original Mode During JTAG Boot

Q&A with Experts: Unable to Program QSPI Flash in Original Mode During JTAG Boot

Problem Description In the Zynq 1.0 version chip, I attempted to program (erase/write/read) the QSPI in the original mode, but the code hangs when booting in JTAG mode. Solution When the QSPI flash is in the original mode, MIO[5] is connected to the HOLD signal. To ensure that the HOLD signal is not held low … Read more
