Well this is the first time we are using this micro-controller. The data sheet says "16k Bytes FLASH; In-system programmable in 512-byte Sectors" (my emphasis)
Hardware people do not understand programming that well. They might not understand how to write programs, but they should understand how EPROM works! Oh well, a least you've both learned something this week! Shruthi Kumar said:
Check this on the 89LPC952 data sheet :
"8 kB byte-erasable flash code memory organized into 1 kB sectors and 64-byte pages. Single-byte erasing allows any byte(s) to be used as non-volatile data storage." Silabs does not have this feature. It's the exception, not the rule - that's why Philips make special mention of their single-byte erase feature! How about the STOP mode, then? http://www.8052.com/forum/read.phtml?id=121188 |

| C8051f310R flash erase will erase entire page?? | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| you can't | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| IDE has that feature... | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| Make like a CR-R? | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| That's why flash is not good for data storage | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| Purpose of using flash | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| 93C66 EEPROM | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| use a walking write | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| Please can you write in assembly | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| nope | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| 93C66 EEPROM.....Hardware is already designed | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| Two different pages available? | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| Ask the designer | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
