Blue pill reading Winbond 25Q80 SPI flash

I have tried without success to use the FlashDiagnostics example from this library to test a Winbond 25Q80 SPI flash from a blue pill.
https://github.com/Marzogh/SPIFlash/wiki
It works using an Arduino Pro Mini 3.3v.

Has anybody had any success, or is there a more suitable library for blue pill?

In that lib you have to replace ARCH_STM32 with ARDUINO_ARCH_STM32F1.

OK stevestrong, bear with me but where do I replace ARCH_STM32 with ARDUINO_ARCH_STM32F1.
Jim

Haven’t you mentioned the FlashDiagnostic example?

go to the folder sketchbook/libaries/xyz

grep -n -R ARCH_STM32 *.h *.c

linux command line experts/wizards/mages would use a find/sed command. for me it’s ‘i like boilerplate’ methodology, so where’s the hammer aka joe ?

I’m going to take a crack at doing this in a one liner…

First, as always, always, always, make a copy of your files before you let sed anywhere near them..

then try something like.. (untested)

cd {base folder you want to cause sed related chaos in}
find . -type f -exec sed -i 's/ARCH\_STM32/ARDUINO\_ARCH\_STM32F1/g' {} +


OK, so I deduce from the other replies that I should replace every occurrence of ARCH_STM32 with ARDUINO_ARCH_STM32F1 in the SPIFlash folder.
I checked the SRC folder with findstr and found:
C:\Users\j\Documents\Arduino\libraries\SPIFlash\src>findstr "ARCH_STM32" *.*
SPIFlash.cpp:#elif defined (ARDUINO_ARCH_SAMD) || defined(ARCH_STM32)
SPIFlash.h:#ifndef ARCH_STM32
SPIFlash.h: #if defined(ARDUINO_ARCH_STM32) || defined(__STM32F1__) || defined(STM32F1) || defined(STM32F3) || defined(STM32F4) || defined(STM32F0xx)
SPIFlash.h: #define ARCH_STM32
SPIFlash.h:#if defined (ARDUINO_ARCH_SAM) || defined (ARDUINO_ARCH_SAMD) || defined (ARDUINO_ARCH_ESP8266) || defined (SIMBLEE) || defined (ARDUINO_ARCH_ESP32) || defined (BOARD_RTL8195A) || defined(ARCH_STM32)
SPIFlash.h:#elif defined (ARDUINO_ARCH_SAMD) || defined(ARCH_STM32)
SPIFlash.h: #if defined (ARDUINO_ARCH_SAMD) || defined(ARCH_STM32)

After a deeper look it seems that the lib should work out of the box as it is, but you have to use the board default SPI pins, Spi1 and PA4 as cs.
So try it again without replacing anything.
And tell us how do you connect the memory to bluepill.

OK
So I downloaded the whole folder again and replaced the old version from:
https://github.com/Marzogh/SPIFlash

I connected the LC W25Q80B memory modules to pins as follows:

Blue Pill LC W25Q80B memory modules
Vcc 3.3 output from BluePill
GND GND GND
HOLD NC HOLD/I03
WP +3.3 WP/I02
CS PA_4/SPI1 NSS CS
MOSI PA_7/SPI1 MOSI MOSI/I00
MISO PA_6/SPI1 MISO MISO/I01
SCK PA_5/SPI1 SCK CLK

(Sorry I have not got the hang of inserting a table yet.)

I also connected to the other SPI1 pins from PB_5 to PA_15, still no good.
I also connected to the SPI2 pins from PB_15 to PB_12, still no good.

silly i know, but do those power rails have a gap in continuity at the middle tab position ?
that’s caught me once, now i just assume it’s gapped and insert links across anyway.

did you rebuild on a different breadboard or just swap mcu and move some wires ?

stephen

Yes the gap caught me out before but that doesnt seem to be the case here but the jumper leads are very loose in the breadboard so I replaced all and checked voltage at memory board.
I didnt try another Blue Pill or memory module yet but I was able to read this one OK on an Arduino mini 3.3 v, I will try swapping both later.

Jim

PS it seems to read something on the memory chip as I get back: JEDEC ID: ef4014h

OK so I swapped the mcu and it still wont play.
I am expecting another flash memory in the post, when it arrives I can swap that as well.

Jim

Do you really need a library?
Can’t you simply write some very simple functions, like here: http://stm32duino.com/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=2412?

OK stevestrong, you are correct, I probably don’t need a sophisticated library and I had intended to write my own code when I discovered a library and so thought this would save me some development time and was distracted to go down that route.
I will step back and take your suggestion and look at what I require and try and develop my own functions.
This might also be quicker than trying to get a library, which I have to decipher to understand, to work.

Jim
