Hi,
I'm using lpc1115 and my application needs 3 permanent integer values to be stored during programm flow. (weight scaler and are needed for calibration).
I saw some other mcu's  that provide some memory segment A etc.

Do I have any alternatives with the lpc1115 mcu?

Best regards,

Hi.
Excuse me but
LPC_IOCON->R_PIO1_1 &= ~(2<<3); isn't the same of LPC_IOCON->R_PIO1_1 &= ~(0x10); ???

Howeverm I substitute my code with yours but I have PIO1_1 to 3,3V even if I set the pin to low.

I can't understand this behaviour..

Finally it isn't as easy as it first appeared!

Yeah, that's pretty good.  I had to modify the flash_nvol.c file a bit in order to get it working for my LPC11C24 chip, but it works pretty good!

Thank you people for your answers.

And the app note is very good!

You can find an app note with code examples at:

I'm sure, someone else provides you with an appnote or similar.

I try to do most things myself. The user manual provides enough information.
In your case I would use sector 12 at 0x0000 C000.
Perform prepare, sector erase, copy RAM-to-FLASH.
Use the smallest block size (256B). Put your data into an array/structure-union temporarily allocated on the stack and do a copy RAM-to-FLASH with that array.

Hi,
I wasnt aware of the IAP existence.
I need to (store-update-read) 3 variables. Can you advise an application note or anything ?

You can use IAP flash commands for that.

EDIT:

Misread your question.

But why use an alternative? You don't have to erase a page on every update, you can erase a page and write many times to consecutive locations. That way you save many erase cycles which are probably your concern.
I did this some time ago.
