Chip support

[mciantyre]

The issue tracks supported and unsupported i.MX RT chip families. If you'd like to add support for another family, leave those thoughts below. Checked means that there's support in the crate; unchecked means it's known to be missing.

Support includes

• serial NOR flash over FlexSPI.

Chip support

• 500
• 600
• 1010
• 1015
• 1020¹
• 1040
• 1050
• 1060
• 1064¹
• 1160
• 1170
• 1180

¹ Implemented by evaluating the reference manuals; or no known usage.

Tips

• Read the "System Boot" section of your chip's reference manual, specifically the "Boot Devices" subsection
• Make sure that the data structures for your boot device matches the existing memory layouts
  • If the layout varies, control it with a chip-specific feature flag
• Make sure that field enums match in both name and value
  • If the names or values differ, control it with a chip-specific feature flag
• Find a known, good configuration block for your system, and drop it into a test (objdump an NXP binary, copy bytes from a reference library, etc). Then, define the data structure using the crate's API. Compare byte-by-byte, and make sure the memory matches.
  • If the FCB is for a publicly-available development board, we would be happy to help you maintain it in this repository.
