Put a lot of data in the ROM
PostPosted: Thu Mar 02, 2006 5:38 pm     Reply with quote

Hi, Smile

for a display application I need to store a lot of bitmaps, actually bytes.
I use a PIC18F452 which has 32KB of ROM and I think I'll take 16K for the program and 16K for data.
Idea OK, I know I can use #ORG to reserve space and read_program_eeprom() to get data from the ROM but how can I put the data there. I don't need variable names or array structure or something, just a lot of bytes all after another in the ROM.
Question Is that possible? Do I have to care for different memory banks?

Thanks for any suggestions,
Thomas

Use the #rom directive. See this thread for details:
