8 years agoSignal Tap II reading a "1" from SO of FLASH CHIP always, without changes. why?

8 years agoI have been able to communicate with the CHIP, through 9Fh command.
https://www.alteraforum.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=14813 https://www.alteraforum.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=14814 The problem was because my SI was slightly too forward (half period) to the SCLK. So, the chip actually listen each rise of SCLK, if I don't feed it timely, it does not work. And the "1" is indeed an stand by signal, once SO is actually sending something, it change to 0 or 1. I still keep having the problem that even tho 9Fh (chip identification) and 05h (read status of "still writting" and "write enable active") seems to be working, and using the 02h (write data), only zero comes out from the chip after using 03h (read data) command. I ran out of ideas.
