Flash and EEPROM Memory

Top  Previous  Next

The EM1202 has 512KBytes or 1024KBytes of flash memory and 2KBytes of EEPROM memory.

The first 64KBytes of flash memory are used to store the TiOS firmware. When you are performing a firmware upgrade it is this memory you are saving the firmware binary into.

The rest of this flash memory is available to your Tibbo BASIC application and its data. Whatever memory space is left after the compiled application is loaded can be used as a flash disk (see fd. object documentation in the "TIDE and Tibbo BASIC Manual").

The EEPROM is almost fully available to your application, save for a small 8-byte area called "special configuration area". The EEPROM is accessed through the stor. object (see "TIDE and Tibbo BASIC Manual"). Details on the special configuration area are provided in the Platform-dependent Programming Information section inside the EM1202 platform documentation (same manual).
