How to write data in Flash data memory?

Dear Sir,

I am using ADUC841 microcontroller from Analog devices,which consists of 8052 core.In this it is having 4Kbytes of Flash data memory.I wrote the routines as mentioned in application note for writing the data in Flash.But the data is not storing in Flash.So,please send me some guidelines for writing the data in Flash.

Thanking you,

Yours sincerely, Shivakumar Manda

  • Dear Sir,

    I had read the datasheet and according to that only i wrote one simple program to store the bytes in one page.Here I am sending the function statements to write the bytes in data memory.

    void Flash_Mem_Write_Page(void)
    { EADRH=0x00; //Select Address hoiher byte
    EADRL=0x01; //Select addres lower byte

    EDATA1=0x12; //writing the data
    EDATA2=0x13;
    EDATA3=0x14;
    EDATA4=0x15;

    ECON=0x02; //writing the bytes
    Sleep(40);
    ECON=0x04; //verifying
    Sleep(22);

    if(!ECON) //match is there it will return 0in ECON
    printf("WRITE\n");
    else
    printf("NOT WRITE\n");
    }

    Thank you very much for replying.

  • "I had read the datasheet"

    I hope you read it more carefully than the instructions here for posting source code:

    www.danlhenry.com/.../keil_code.png

    You also, apparently, didn't notice the problem in the 'Preview' - I hope you've reviewed your own code more carefully?

  • First, you said, "I wrote the routines as mentioned in application note"

    Now you say, "I had read the datasheet and according to that only i wrote one simple program" (my emphasis)

    So which is it - datasheet or application note?

    or both?

    or what?

  • Look at followed example. It works on ADuC847.

    // ****************************************************
    // save 4 bytes to addr 0x3FF
    // ****************************************************
    void SaveSetPointToFlash(unsigned char* puc)
    {
     EA = 0;          // Disable interrupts before saving
     EADRH = 0x03;    // High byte of page Address
     EADRL = 0xFF;     // Low byte of page Address
     EDATA1 = puc[0]; // Data to flash
     EDATA2 = puc[1]; // Data to flash
     EDATA3 = puc[2]; // Data to flash
     EDATA4 = puc[3]; // Data to flash
     ECON = 0x05;     // Erase Page
     ECON = 0x02;     // Write Page
     ECON = 0x04;     // Verify Page
     EA = 1;          // enable interrupts after saving
    }
    


    As notes Christoph you should provide erasing page and remove delays.
