Trouble w Processor Expert FLASH_LDD Component

lmg · ‎02-15-2017

Using KDS v 3.2.0

Processor is KE02Z32VLD2.

Debugging with P&E Multilink

I let PE set the clock frequency to 1MHz.

I've set up four user memory areas in upper memory:

My intent is to store operational data in these areas for safe-keeping upon power-down.

I thought I would start with erasing one block of this memory. Following the example in the "Help on this component" I have the following:

You can see the breakpoints above. I reach the first one just fine. But when I continue from there, I end up here:

. . . as if I stumbled on a Reset or something.

I have tried "Safe launch and wait" - with and without "Interruptable wait loop" checked. And I have tried without "Safe launch and wait".

Flash protection is set to "No protection"

There ARE timer interrupts running while I'm attempting this. Adding __DI(); before calling the FLASH_LDD methods did not seem to help.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Alice,

Thanks for your help.

Just so I'm clear . . you cannot read from FLASH memory while it is being erased or programmed. Correct?

How about the EEPROM? Does that have the same restrictions?

Thanks.

I've been looking around some more and I've found . . .

This discussion:

And this seems to work:

I thought I understood that I could still read FLASH while a different block is being erased, but I guess not(?).

Any suggestions for improvement would be appreciated.
