    Hi,

    I do not know if this is your problem (I am not a Guru..), but you must keep in mind that writing to flash with a FMI_clock > 25MHz will give you unexpected results. So before writing to flash, yoy have to reduce the CPU clock-frequency.

    See datasheet errata 1.21 at page 11!

    Regards

    In Keil STR91x.s file i set MCLKSEL = fOSC (8 Mhz) it must be sufficient.

    Also i tried to set MCLKSEL = fPLL (PLL =24 Mhz), PLL ENABLE, FMI clk =

    Rclk/2 (project work from ram but from flash it not work yet). I do some

    mistake but can not find it ?

    There is nothing wrong with this code. But check your memory assignments.

    This should be the same as the attched file.

    Regards

    Luc.

    I use the Keil compiler and MCBSTR9 EVAL board to run the FMI example and find it is not working unless you compile the code in thumb mode instead of ARM mode. Can anyone give me a clue what difference between thumb and ARm mode? Why the FMI example can only work in Thumb mode? Highly appreciate any info.
