Hello,

I have question about LPC11U24 on-chip EEPROM endurance. Value of parameter is per byte, or per 64B page?

When I wrote one byte to adress 0x0000, I shorted life for next 63 bytes in page, or not?

Thank You

Vaclav

Hi,

When a single byte is programmed, the energy from the charge pump is concentrated on that one byte. If a page write is used, that energy is dissipated over more bytes, so cell wear is decreased.


Have a great day,
Sol
