Hi All,
I have succesfully got ecos(or the hello world app using eCos) running on the
Atmel at91sam7a2 ev kit(out of RAM).
At the moment the port is integrated into the at91sam7 family, but it is a bit
messy. I think I will later change the at91sam7a2 to a separate platform port
due to the lack of similarity between the sam7s and x platforms.
What to do for a board with 16k internal RAM and 1 external SRAM chips of 512
KB each. Do I ignore the internal RAM? And if not what sections would you
recommend be put there?
I have set the .ldi and .h memory configuration files to successfully work in
RAM, but would welcome some motivated comment/advice on the ROM setup thereof.
.ldi file
MEMORY
{
sram : ORIGIN = 0x00000000, LENGTH = 0x4000 //internal ram
ram : ORIGIN = 0x48000000, LENGTH = 0x80000 //external ram
rom : ORIGIN = 0x40000000, LENGTH = 0x100000 //external flash
}
