mimxrt — functionality specific to NXP i.MXRT

The mimxrt module contains functions and classes specific to the NXP i.MXRT family of microcontrollers.

Classes

class mimxrt.Flash

Gets the singleton object for accessing the SPI flash memory. This class gives access to the on-board SPI flash memory.

In most cases, to store persistent data on the device, you’ll want to use a higher-level abstraction, for example the filesystem via Python’s standard file API, but this interface is useful to customise the filesystem configuration or implement a low-level storage system for your application.

readblocks(block_num: int, buf: bytearray) → None

readblocks(block_num: int, buf: bytearray, offset: int) → None

writeblocks(block_num: int, buf: bytes) → None

writeblocks(block_num: int, buf: bytes, offset: int) → None

ioctl(cmd: int, arg: int) → int | None

These methods implement the simple and extended block protocol defined by vfs.AbstractBlockDev.

The block size can be queried by calling ioctl(5, 0). Block numbers are relative to the start of the user flash storage area, not the physical start of flash memory.
