Section 22 Flash Memory
In figure 22.13, since RAM emulation is performed, the erasing/programming program is
downloaded to avoid the 4-Kbyte on-chip RAM area (H'FFA000 to H'FFAFFF). Download and
initialization are performed only once at the beginning. Note the following when executing the
procedure program.
• Be careful not to overwrite data in the on-chip RAM with overlay settings. In addition to the
programming program area, erasing program area, and RAM emulation area, areas for the
procedure programs, work area, and stack area are reserved in the on-chip RAM. Do not make
settings that will overwrite data in these areas.
• Be sure to initialize both the programming program and erasing program. When the FPEFEQ
parameter is initialized, also initialize both the erasing program and programming program.
Initialization must be executed for both entry addresses: #DLTOP (start address of download
destination for erasing program) + 32 bytes, and #DLTOP (start address of download
destination for programming program) + 32 bytes.
22.8.3 User Boot Mode
Branching to a programming/erasing program prepared by the user enables user boot mode which
is a user-arbitrary boot mode to be used.
Only the user MAT can be programmed/erased in user boot mode. Programming/erasure of the
user boot MAT is only enabled in boot mode or programmer mode.
(1) Initiation in User Boot Mode
When the reset start is executed with the mode pins set to user boot mode, the built-in check
routine runs and checks the user MAT and user boot MAT states. While the check routine is
running, NMI and all other interrupts cannot be accepted. Next, processing starts from the
execution start address of the reset vector in the user boot MAT. At this point, the user boot MAT
is selected (FMATS = H'AA) as the execution memory MAT.
