How to read parallel NOR flash memory?

March 30, 2015, 05:36:54 pm

My target is to dump the data of a Spansion S29GL032N chip.
If I understand it correctly, this is a parallel NOR flash memory chip.
To get started, I have ordered a Bus Pirate v3.6 and an Open Bench Logic Sniffer.

Now I found a lot of information on how to read SPI flash devices with the Bus Pirate, but nothing on parallel devices.
Can you give me some clues on where to start / look for?

*sorry if am asking dump questions, I have just started with this and am still learning*

Edit:
It seems a Bus Pirate does not support parallel flash chips.
What device should I use instead?

Best option is Minipro TL866 programmer + tsop adapter for you I think.Manual dumping not easy for nor and nand flash ic s.
