Chapter 4 Memory
The RAM retains data when the MCU is in low-power wait, stop2, or stop3 mode. At power-on, the
contents of RAM are uninitialized. RAM data is unaffected by any reset provided that the supply voltage
does not drop below the minimum value for RAM retention.
For compatibility with older M68HC05 MCUs, the HCS08 resets the stack pointer to 0x00FF. In the
MC9S08JM60 series, it is usually best to re-initialize the stack pointer to the top of the RAM so the direct
page RAM can be used for frequently accessed RAM variables and bit-addressable program variables.
Include the following 2-instruction sequence in your reset initialization routine (where RamLast is equated
to the highest address of the RAM in the Freescale-provided equate file).

When security is enabled, the RAM is considered a secure memory resource and is not accessible through
BDM or through code executing from non-secure memory. See Section 4.6, “Security,” for a detailed
description of the security feature.
4.4 USB RAM
USB RAM is discussed in detail in Chapter 17, “Universal Serial Bus Device Controller (S08USBV1).”
4.5 Flash
The flash memory is used for program storage. In-circuit programming allows the operating program to
be loaded into the flash memory after final assembly of the application product. It is possible to program
the entire array through the single-wire background debug interface. Because no special voltages are
needed for flash erase and programming operations, in-application programming is also possible through
other software-controlled communication paths. For a more detailed discussion of in-circuit and
in-application programming, refer to the HCS08 Family Reference Manual, Volume I, Freescale
Semiconductor document order number HCS08RMv1.
