Subject: [U-Boot] [PATCH] KARO TX25: Fix NAND Flash R/W cycle times
Date: Wed, 8 Aug 2012 15:55:32 +0200 (CEST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <176388006.2143625.1344434132868.JavaMail.root@advansee.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <452528157.1063435.1343993680313.JavaMail.root@advansee.com>

The NAND Flash of the KARO TX25 board is a Samsung K9F1G08U0B with 25-ns R/W
cycle times. However, the NFC clock for this board was set to 66.5 MHz, so using
the NFC driver in symmetric mode (i.e. 1 NFC clock cycle = 1 NF R/W cycle)
resulted in NF R/W cycle times of 15 ns, hence corrupted NF accesses.

This patch fixes this issue by setting the NFC clock to the highest frequency
complying to the 25-ns NF R/W cycle times specification, i.e. 33.25 MHz.

This patch is a replacement solution that I suggest instead of
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/174735/ since there is no need for a
CONFIG_SYS_NAND_MXC_NFC_TWO_CYCLES config option in the NFC driver.

It still has to be tested by someone having this board, but I'm very confident
that it works since I have another PCB design based on the i.MX25 with a NAND
Flash with the same timings that works fine using these clock settings.
