Flash 11 Click is a compact add-on board representing a highly reliable memory solution. This board features the AT25SF321B, a 32-Mbit SPI serial Flash memory with Dual I/O and Quad I/O support from Dialog Semiconductor. It is designed for applications in which the program code is shadowed from Flash memory into embedded or external RAM for execution and where small amounts of data are stored and updated locally in the Flash memory. It has a flexible and optimized erase architecture for code and data storage applications, non-volatile protection, three specialized protected programmable 256-byte OTP security registers, and a 64-bit factory programmable UID register.

We provide a library for the Flash 11 Click as well as a demo application (example), developed using MikroElektronika compilers. The demo can run on all the main MikroElektronika development boards.
Package can be downloaded/installed directly from NECTO Studio Package Manager(recommended way), downloaded from our LibStock™ or found on Mikroe github account.
This library contains API for Flash 11 Click driver.

err_t flash11_block_erase ( flash11_t *ctx, uint8_t cmd_block_erase, uint32_t mem_addr );This example demonstrates the use of Flash 11 Click board The demo app writes specified data to the memory and reads it back.
The demo application is composed of two sections :
The initialization of SPI module, log UART, and additional pins. After the driver init, the app executes a default configuration.
void application_init ( void )

log_cfg_t log_cfg; /**< Logger config object. */
flash11_cfg_t flash11_cfg; /**< Click config object. */
/**
* Logger initialization.
* Default baud rate: 115200
* Default log level: LOG_LEVEL_DEBUG
* @note If USB_UART_RX and USB_UART_TX
* are defined as HAL_PIN_NC, you will
* need to define them manually for log to work.
* See @b LOG_MAP_USB_UART macro definition for detailed explanation.

}This example demonstrates the use of the Flash 11 Click board™. The demo application writes a desired number of bytes to the memory and then verifies if it is written correctly by reading from the same memory location and displaying the memory content. Results are being sent to the UART Terminal, where you can track their changes.

Additional notes and informations
Depending on the development board you are using, you may need USB UART Click, USB UART 2 Click or RS232 Click to connect to your PC, for development systems with no UART to USB interface available on the board. UART terminal is available in all MikroElektronika compilers.
