Figure 19.23 Example of RAM Overlap Operation
Example in Which Flash Memory Block Area (EB1) is Overlapped
1. Set bits RAMS, RAM1, and RAM0 in RAMER to 1, 0, 1, to overlap part of RAM onto the area (EB1) for which real-
time programming is required.
2. Real-time programming is performed using the overlapping RAM.
3. After the program data has been confirmed, the RAMS bit is cleared, releasing RAM overlap.
4. The data written in the overlapping RAM is written into the flash memory space (EB1).
Notes: 1. When the RAMS bit is set to 1, program/erase protection is enabled for all blocks regardless of the value of
RAM1 and RAM0 (emulation protection). In this state, setting the P or E bit in flash memory control register 1
(FLMCR1) will not cause a transition to program mode or erase mode. When actually programming a flash
memory area, the RAMS bit should be cleared to 0.
2. A RAM area cannot be erased by execution of software in accordance with the erase algorithm while flash
memory emulation in RAM is being used.
3. Block area EB0 includes the vector table. When performing RAM emulation, the vector table is needed by the
overlap RAM.
