Table 215: IAP Copy RAM to Flash command description
Command
Copy RAM to Flash
Input
Command code: 51
Param0(DST): Destination Flash address where data bytes are to be written. The destination
address should be a 512 byte boundary.
Param1(SRC): Source RAM address from which data bytes are to be read. This address should be
on word boundary.
Param2: Number of bytes to be written. Should be 512 | 1024 | 4096 | 8192.
Param3: System Clock Frequency (CCLK) in KHz.
Status Code
CMD_SUCCESS |
SRC_ADDR_ERROR (Address not on word boundary) |
DST_ADDR_ERROR (Address not on correct boundary) |
SRC_ADDR_NOT_MAPPED |
DST_ADDR_NOT_MAPPED |
COUNT_ERROR (Byte count is not 512 | 1024 | 4096 | 8192) |
SECTOR_NOT_PREPARED_FOR_WRITE_OPERATION |
BUSY
Result
None
Description
This command is used to program the flash memory. The affected sectors should be prepared first
by calling "Prepare Sector for Write Operation" command. The affected sectors are automatically
protected again once the copy command is successfully executed. The boot sector can not be
written by this command.
Table 216: IAP Erase Sector(s) command description
Command
Erase Sector(s)
Input
Command code: 52
Param0: Start Sector Number
Param1: End Sector Number: Should be greater than or equal to start sector number.
Param2: System Clock Frequency (CCLK) in KHz.
Status Code
CMD_SUCCESS |
BUSY |
SECTOR_NOT_PREPARED_FOR_WRITE_OPERATION |
INVALID_SECTOR
Result
None
Description
This command is used to erase a sector or multiple sectors of on-chip Flash memory. The boot
