540e04331a Fixed the ordering of the chips -- I had the bytes reversed. Now, when I write/read a continuous stream of data, the bytes will correspond with the correct chips. 2011-12-17 11:18:56 -08:00

4f0d1a894c Optimized some of my routines and fixed a nasty, nasty bug that was causing the board to crash because of multiple things being outputs simultaneously. 2011-12-13 21:56:20 -08:00

4adb0c4980 Started working on more optimizations, but something weird is happening and it's crashing...not sure why yet. 2011-12-11 21:48:26 -08:00

1c07518ab0 Added electrical test option to my temporary command line.
Also experimented with skipping the SPI -- I left my test code in there, commented out, in case I want to do some more speed testing.

7099218bf1 Added some optimization to remove the 1us delay on the write pulse, but I'm not sure that it matters much. 2011-12-11 13:45:17 -08:00

b4eb6c3ddc Started getting writing working, as well as the ability to restrict to a specific set of chips to write to 2011-12-11 13:28:32 -08:00

e0977a9339 Created read and write cycle functions, along with a block read function. I think this will look better...
I also changed the port module so it doesn't needlessly update the data direction register over SPI if it's being told to set the same value it had before.

8865d0c00f I got the device identification working, and I'm in the middle of breaking it into its own set of functions for write cycles, read cycles, unlock sequence, etc. 2011-12-10 18:40:30 -08:00

1540bcadd1 Tested reading the entire SIMM contents back to the computer (it works) 2011-12-10 13:53:43 -08:00

7db22e08af Fixed a few stupid bugs -- it's now reading data correctly. 2011-12-10 13:02:21 -08:00

2bc61f41aa Continued playing with USB serial stuff. I think it's working well now, but I'm running into problems reading from the SIMM, so I need to figure out why I'm not getting the data I expect. 2011-12-10 10:35:41 -08:00

0a52df645a - Fixed stupid bug of -1 instead of +1 in external_mem.c.
- Began writing an electrical test so I remember WTF I'm doing later

1595c69890 OK -- so I separated the actual port code from the external memory controller code. I think this makes more sense.
It does add some complexity to the code. I may be going through a chain of calls just to turn the CS pin on, for instance. Hopefully I'm not going too crazy with this.

Anyway, this means that I can control the ports from a SIMM electrical test routine using the same types of functions that the actual programming  controlling code would use, without having to duplicate a bunch of port definitions and bit manipulation. I made sure to add all the functions I can think of needing to the ports module. We'll see if I got them all!

34438a898e Oops -- I had assert and deassert backwards. 2011-11-25 23:12:58 -08:00

407f6831a9 Initial import of my test code for the SIMM programmer board. Right now
it contains an (untested) MCP23S17 driver complete with AVR SPI support,
and an (untested) external memory interface driver that uses it.
