FLASH MEMORY MODE
This internal flash memory has the boot ROM area storing the repro-
gramming control software for reprogramming in the CPU repro-
gramming mode and flash memory serial I/O mode, as well as the
user ROM area storing a certain control software for the normal op-
eration in the microcomputer mode.
These microcomputers contain the flash memory; and single-power-
supply reprogramming is available to this. These microcomputers
have the following three modes, enabling reading/programming/era-
sure for the flash memory:
• Flash memory parallel I/O mode and Flash memory serial I/O
mode, where the flash memory is handled by using an external pro-
grammer.
Although our reprogramming control firmware for the flash memory
serial I/O mode has been stored into this boot ROM area on ship-
ment, the user-original reprogramming control software which is
more appropriate for the user’s system is reprogrammable into this
area, instead. Note that the reprogramming for the boot ROM area is
enabled only in the flash memory parallel I/O mode.
• CPU reprogramming mode, where the flash memory is handled by
the central processing unit (CPU).
As shown in Figure 4, the flash memory is divided into several
blocks, and erasure per block is possible.
