I Can't modify data on eeprom memory

Bibi — Wed, 31 Jan 2007 01:30:28 GMT

Hello !

I'm using a MC9S12DG128 microcontroler. I would like to modify data writen in eeprom memory.

The chip is used with a 16MHz oscillator.

I first initiate the memory mapping :

init_cpu(){

INITEE = 0x09;

INITRM = 0x11;

INITRG = 0x00;

}

Before writing data, I'm looking at the EDIVLD bit in the ESTAT register, if null I initiate the EEPROM registers :

void eeprom_init(){

ECLKDIV=0x4A;

ECNFG=0x00;//pas it eeprom

}

and then I modify the sector :

char modifiy_Sector(unsigned int * adr, unsigned int data){

ESTAT=0x30;//raz ACCERR et PVIOL

while(!(ESTAT & 0x80));
*adr=data;//fill address with data

      ECMD=0x60;//write command
      ESTAT = 0x80;//activate command
      if((ESTAT&0x30)!=0)
          return(FALSE);

while(!(ESTAT & 0x40));//wait for end of command

return(*adr==data);

}

The problem is that data are not written in the EEPROM memory ! Did I miss something or Is there any errors in my code ?

For more information, I'm using CW compiler, ISystem Debugger. My Controler is used in Normal single chip.

Thank you for your help !

Hi,

You can't write into EEPROM unless it is empty, means data at that location should be 0xFFFF.

Hi,

Call function eeprom_init() even if EDIVLD bit is not null

char modifiy_Sector(unsigned int * adr, unsigned int data)

{

ESTAT=0x30;//raz ACCERR et PVIOL

while(!(ESTAT & 0x80)); // remove this while condition
*adr=data;//fill address with data

      ECMD=0x60;//write command
      ESTAT = 0x80;//activate command
      if((ESTAT&0x30)!=0)
          return(FALSE);

while(!(ESTAT & 0x40));//wait for end of command

return(*adr==data);

}

remove the marked while condition. you can't issue more than one command unless it has been completed.

Hi,

Thank you for your answer, but it seems not to resolve my problem. I analyse
every register needed by the EEPROM and I did'nt find any mistakes.
During my last tests, I've seen that the memory space I was considering as
the eeprom memory was acting as a RAM memory. I mean, when I am executing,
step by step, the command line *eepromAddress = data (as explaining in the
application note), the memory area is updating with the data even if the the
command was not run (with writing the ECMD register and ESTAT_CBIEF bit).
When I shut down the chip power, The memory area is no longer fill with data
I wrote but with random data.
So I thougth it was a mapping memory error.
I want the following mapping:
RAM : 0x1000 to 0x2FFF
EEPROM : 0x800 to 0xFFF
FLASH: 0x4000 et 0x8000

As explaining in the documentation, I configure the mapping registers as
followed:
INITRM = 0x11;
INITEE = 0x09;
INITRG = 0x00;

I saw in the application note you've sent to me, that if a RAM area is at
the same place as the EEPROM area, the sector is acting as a RAM memory. At
reset, the ram memory is placed from 0x0000 to 0x1FFF and is masking the
eeprom memory.What should I do to make the EEPROM visible.

bibi,

you want to map your DG128 RAM to 1000-2fff. This is impossible since DG128 8K RAM block is "mappable to any 8K boundary". 8K boundary means $0, $2000, $4000, $6000 etc. You can't map DG128's 8K RAM to 1000-2fff. Only 0-1fff, 2000-3fff, etc

Hi,

Remap your RAM to 0x2000, ie INITRM = 0x20;

Hi !

That's it !! I remapped my RAM memory and it's working !!

thank you everybody for your help.
