D-Flash writing

chris_up2u — Fri, 13 Mar 2009 19:24:01 GMT

hi guys, i'm now working on mc9s12xep100 chip, there's a 32k D-Flash in global memory, addressed from 0x10_0000 to 0x10_7FFF. I want now write data to the D-Flash through the EPAGE Register. Should i first partition D-Flash, erase sectors and then write to buffer RAM EEE? The data written to buffer RAM will be backed up to D-Flash?

By the way, i can only read the FSTAT Register but not write it, so i can't start command write sequence and neither launch command. Is anywhere else another FSTAT that can be written? Can anybody help? Thx a lot!

Have a look at AN3473 for a good introduction to using this feature. That should answer your programming question as well. AN3490 is also available as an architectural description if you want to do something more arcane with the memory.

hi steve, thanks for your advice. I have already read that note, and have seen the sample program. According to that program, FSTAT Register can be written using a equal, but it just can't be written.

By the way, I'm not using Code Warrior. And FSTAT is addressed to 0x00_0106 in global address.

So you are trying to write D-flash - rather than use the EEPROM feature?

To program D-flash you can't just write to the EEPROM window, you have to use the d-flash programming sequence (as below)

Here's a C segment to erase a D-flash 256 byte sector and then write some data to it. What initially tripped me up is FSTAT bit 7 is cleared by writing 1 to it to initiate a flash command.

// This will erase the sector at 0x10_0100

asm("sei");

            if ((FSTAT & 0x30) != 0) {
                FSTAT |= 0x30; // clear ACCERR or FPVIOL if set
            }

            FCCOBIX = 0;
            FCCOBHI = 0x12;     // erase D-flash sector command
            FCCOBLO = 0x10;     // global address of all D-flash

            FCCOBIX = 1;
            FCCOB = 0x100;      // address within sector

FSTAT = 0x80; // initiate flash command (datasheet very confusing)
asm("cli");

//now write a phrase to D-flash

            asm ("sei");
            FCCOBIX = 0;
            FCCOBHI = 0x11;     // prog D-flash
            FCCOBLO = 0x10;     // global addr

            FCCOBIX = 1;
            FCCOB = 0x0100;      //global addr - within an erased sectot

FCCOBIX = 2;
FCCOB = word_to_prog_1;

//optional additional words

FCCOBIX = 3;
FCCOB = word_to_prog_2;

FCCOBIX = 4;
FCCOB = word_to_prog_3;

FCCOBIX = 5;
FCCOB = word_to_prog_4;

FSTAT = 0x80; // initiate flash command
asm("cli");

Hope that helps.
