Hi everyone, ive been trying to interface a 16MB SDRAM (MT84LC8M16A2, 128Mbit, 2x16x4)with an AT91RM9200 con my custom board. As u might have guessed, its not working. Ive checked and rechecked the continuity of all connections, they seem to be okay. The SDRAM and the uC are placed close to each other on the PCB (which me and my friend designed). The following is the list of connections, p...

I have a board based on the AT91RM9200, and want to boot from SPI dataflash. The loader will proceed to boot u-boot (Which is too big for the ROM bootloader to handle). I have read the atmel appnote on that, but boot program will need to be changed. My SDRAM is configured differently than the DK. The program with the appnote includes source, but it is missing quite a bit to be able to be ...

Hi, I have a simple startup code for a at91rm9200 processor. The idea was after the processor setup to restore the processor context saved in stack pointed by pCurrStack variable. I don't know where could be a problem becuase it sometimes works but more often it doesn't work. This code is downloaded by u-boot so some startup seuences are not necessary. I'll be gratefull for comme...

Hi, im learning how to use the AT91RM9200..right now im trying to tackle the AIC. iv set everyhting up, earmarking PIOA0 for an external interrupt through a switch connected to it, so that theoretically whenever the switch is pressed, an interrupt is generated that sends a string via the debug port to hyperterminal. everythings fine, but when i press the switch once, i get 2 interrupts....

Hello,members! I want to add a debugging stub on AT91RM9200 target,I've looked at some information about it,but i don't know how to write that AT91-stub.c?
