Section 7 ROM
The features of the 20-kbyte (4 kbytes of them are the E10T control program area) flash memory
built into HD64F3672 are summarized below.
• Programming/erase methods
 The flash memory is programmed 128 bytes at a time. Erase is performed in single-block
units. The flash memory is configured as follows: 1 kbyte × 4 blocks, 16 kbytes × 1 block.
To erase the entire flash memory, each block must be erased in turn.
• Reprogramming capability
 The flash memory can be reprogrammed up to 1,000 times.
• On-board programming
 On-board programming/erasing can be done in boot mode, in which the boot program built
into the chip is started to erase or program of the entire flash memory. In normal user
program mode, individual blocks can be erased or programmed.
• Automatic bit rate adjustment
 For data transfer in boot mode, this LSI's bit rate can be automatically adjusted to match
the transfer bit rate of the host.
• Programming/erasing protection
 Sets software protection against flash memory programming/erasing.
7.1 Block Configuration
Figure 7.1 shows the block configuration of 20-kbyte flash memory. The thick lines indicate
erasing units, the narrow lines indicate programming units, and the values are addresses. The
flash memory is divided into 1 kbyte × 4 blocks and 16 kbytes × 1 block. Erasing is performed in
these units. Programming is performed in 128-byte units starting from an address with lower eight
bits H'00 or H'80.
