Do sd_flash_write or sd_flash_page_erase verify the result of the flash operation?

[Marius Heil]

Hi,

do sd_flash_page_erase or sd_flash_write provide any guarantees that the command has executed successfully or should I do a manual check to verify if the page was really erased or the data was written correctly?

Thanks, Marius

Hi,

There is no automatic verification of flash content (sd_flash_page_erase /sd_flash_write will not read back the data), so this is something you can add if you want (though I have not heard of this being a problem, and we don't do that ourselves).

Thanks, so you think this could only happen if the flash is corrupt after too many erase cycles? And there will be no possibility that it works the second time?
