Posted on March 14, 2005 at 17:30The ST720 has 16K on-chip SRAM. But in the data sheet, the SRAM is always referred to as “program RAM�. In section 6.1, the data sheet states that “Program Memory can be used for both code (instructions) and data (constants, tables, etc.) storage.�
Does this mean that there are certain restrictions when the on-chip memory is data storage (such as read-only, and unit of access (e.g 32-bit boundary only), etc). We want to make certain that the on-chip SRAM can be read and written in byte, word (16 bit) and long word (32 bit) units to store frequently accessed parameters. Can you verify this for us?
