use flash on lpc2148
Guest
#1172433
Hi,
I use eclipse and the GNU ARM Compiler suit for Windows
I must store some char in flash on Phillips lpc2148.
I have defined the varriable test:
unsigned char test _attribute_ ((section (".mySection"))) = 48;
and the compiler call is:
arm-elf-ld -v -S -M -section-start=.mySection=0x00010000
the problem is now, the lpc2148 restart if I would write to "test"
how I could write to the varriable?!?
thx
Marco

You can not simply modify the flash-content like this. Read the section about IAP in the LPC214x manual. Martin Thomas

If I want to prepare a flash section the µC restarts. my code is: // IAP start location on flash #define IAP_LOCATION 0x7FFFFFF0 // contains parameters for IAP command unsigned int iap_command[5]; // contains results, returned by "Blankcheck sector(s)" unsigned int iap_result[2]; // typedefinition for IAP entry function typedef void (*IAP) (unsigned int[],unsigned int[]); IAP IAP_Entry; /* * Write data to flash */ void IAP_Write (void) { IAP_Entry = (IAP) IAP_LOCATION; // IAP write command for prepare sectors for write // set command code iap_command[0] = 50; // set start sector number iap_command[1] = 0x0A; // set stop sector number iap_command[2] = 0x0A; // prepare sectors for write IAP_Entry(iap_command,iap_result); } Do you see whats wrong? thx Marco Guest wrote: > #define IAP_LOCATION 0x7FFFFFF0 Where did you get this from? AFAIK the IAP-entry function is thumb-code so this should be an odd number. > IAP_Entry(iap_command,iap_result); How does the Compiler translate this? Can you show the assembler-code for this? Is IAR_Write compiled for thumb or ARM-mode? Martin Thomas

Thx, I misread the IAP_LOCATION. With the new adress 0x7FFFFFF1 the
Prepare
command works fine.
New problemm is, if I will write to flash the source adress is not on a
correct boundary.
void IAP_Write (void)
{
// Copy RAM to Flash
// setting function pointer
IAP_Entry = (IAP) IAP_LOCATION;
// set command code
iap_command[0] = 51;
// destination flash where data byte to be written
iap_command[1] = (unsigned long)0x00018000;
// source RAM address where data bytes are to be read
iap_command[2] = (unsigned short)&contrast_lokal;
// number of bytes to be written
iap_command[3] = 256;
// set system clock frequency, unit kHz
iap_command[4] = 60000;
// prepare sectors for write
IAP_Entry(iap_command,iap_result);
}
I inexperienced about thumb and arm mode because the arm porzessor is
new for me.

Sry I have found the failure. The source wasn`t word. thx for help Guest wrote: > Thx, I misread the IAP_LOCATION.
