For additional information about the SPI Flash M25P32 take a look at the M25P32 datasheet. For reference, provided below are the M25P32 instructions list and memory map. The whole memory can be erased using the Bulk Erase instruction, or a sector at a time, using the Sector Erase instruction. The 32 Mbit (4M bytes) SPI Flash M25P32 found on the SPI Flash Demo Board has 64 sectors. For partial erasure, users can specify the start addresses and length in the erase parameters dialog as either a decimal value or as a hexadecimal value.

Erase - Allows the user to erase the entire memory device or allows the erasure of portion of it.

Verify - Verifies the contents of the selected devices against the contents of the data buffer.

Read Device - Reads the contents of the selected device and replaces it in the current contents in the data buffer.

Because the device may have been programmed prior to this operation, it does not perform the verification step. Use FF as the pad value when loading each memory image to avoid corrupting previously written data. This is useful if multiple memory images are to be programmed to the device. It writes data to the device, but does not perform an erase cycle.

Program (No Erase) - A special mode for SPI Flash devices.

If the device is an SPI Flash, an erase cycle will be performed first, with the same caveats as Program + Verify.

Program - Writes data to the device, but does not perform the verification step.

Also, if the data to be written is large enough to require the entire device to be erase, and the memory device has an “erase all” instruction, the software will use the “erase all” instruction.

A warning will be logged if this is the case. Note that it is possible to erase more data than is written if a write ends in the middle of a sector. The erase will cover only those sectors which will be written. If the device is an SPI Flash, an erase cycle will be performed first.

Program + Verify - Writes data to one or more attached memory devices and then reads back the data to verify it for correctness.

In addition there are Read Device, Verify, and Erase operations. Specifically, there are three programming modes: Program + Verify, Program, and Program (No Erase). It's first helpful to understand the different operations options provided by Flash Center. Here the Cheetah adapter is the SPI master and the SPI flash on the SPI Flash Demo board is the SPI slave. In this article the Cheetah adapter erases, programs and reads the M25P32.

The goal of this article is to demonstrate how to program SPI flash and then read back the data Overview Although the following describes the ST Micro SPI Flash M25P32 assembled on the SPI Flash Demo Board, similar steps can be used for other devices. This article focuses on how to program SPI flash with Flash Center and Cheetah adapter. With one Flash Center click the user can erase, program, and verify an entire device. Using the Cheetah SPI Host Adapter with the Flash Center software makes it extremely easy to program EEPROM and flash devices. There are several ways to do this with the Cheetah adapter, including using Cheetah GUI, Flash Center, or the Cheetah API. Programming SPI memory devices is a common use case for the Cheetah Adapter.
