Hello:

I wanted to save some simple sensor data with Flash of 4M inside RT1064, but I looked at the SDK version 2.41 and found no similar examples.In addition to the part that holds the user code, can the rest be used as data storage?If so, are there routines?

Thank you very much!

Hello,

Is not possible to emulate an EEPROM with the Flash memory.
You could save some data in that memory, however, this is not recommended. Since you want to save some data that you will be reading from a sensor, I supposed that you will be doing this very frequently. This will shorten the life of the memory in a considerable way since you will be making a lot of programming cycles. Your best option is to store this data in the internal RAM of the RT.


Have a great day,
