How to define data-table on on-chip EEPROM
PostPosted: Fri Jul 16, 2010 2:55 am     Reply with quote

I want to define data-table on on-chip EEPROM, and this information will stay in hex file (so it's easy to program chip, and fix it if required).

Does anyone know how can I do?

Thank you!

#ROM

You need the 'programming' address of the EEPROM (varies with different chip families 0x2100 on the older PIC16 chips, 0xF00000 on the PIC18, etc. - look at the programming data sheet for this), then:
(on a PIC16)

#ROM 0x2100 = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8}

Will put 1 to 8, in the first 8 bytes of the EEPROM.

Best Wishes

Thank you very much! I can do now.

It's seem hard to find EEPROM address from device datasheet, programming specification Sad . I looked for these address at Winpic800 software Very Happy , and found 0x2100 for PIC12 and 16, 0x780000 for PIC18, 0x7FFC00 for dsPIC30.

I've found that the best way to have EEPROM address of any chip is look in Device Table Editor of our IDE, in tab MCU Parts, middle table, Memory part.

Code:

#ROM getenv( "EEPROM_ADDRESS" ) = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8}


This above will also work and will not need changing if you move to different chip.

Oh! Thank you so much!

Coming here, I find that there are so many things which I don't know about in our IDE.
