Hi!

I have the following problem: the flash memory I need to program is usually at sleep. So I must wake-up it, sending a "Release from Power-down" (0xAB) command. This command (and the one to make it sleep again: Deep Power Down (0xB9)), seems to be widely supported by SPI flash chips. The most annoying detail is that you must try to wake-up the memory, even before you really know the memory is there. The memory won't reply an ID when sleeping.

Right now I have a patched flashrom with support for a new SPI cable. I added the wake-up/sleep commands to the cable, but it looks confusing, because this is something that belongs to the memory.

Any advice?

Regards, SET
