QSPI-NOR Reference Design with AM437x

TIDEP0016 Reference Design from Texas Instruments

Description

The QSPI interface on the Sitara AM437x processors enables system designers to connect a NOR flash. The interface is fast enough to support execute-In-Place (XIP). Such design offers flexibility for code partitioning and system cost savings by enabling the use of lower cost NOR flash or less DDR memory.

Features

512 Mega-bit NOR Flash connected over Quad-SPI interface to the Sitara AM437x processor4-pin SPI interface with external chip select signalSPI MODE 3Complete sub-system reference with schematics: BOM: design files: and HW User's Guide implemented on a fully assembled board developed for testing and validation.
