how to write data onto program memory
PostPosted: Mon Jul 19, 2010 9:32 am     Reply with quote

Hi,
I am using PIC16F876A for my project.
I want to write a value into program memory at compile time, then at run time I want to read that value and modify it and then again write it and so on.

Can anybody provide me with a small example to that I can implement the same.

Thanks.

Use the forum search. This has been answered many times....

Be aware of the limitations:
1) When writing program memory, program execution stops.
2) The limited write life of the program memory.

For a couple of examples.
As a very sophisticated way of doing this, you can use Addressmod, but with a cost of code bulk.
If your chip has EEPROM, use this instead....

Is it possible to write data onto eeprom at compile time?
And then retrieve it during program execution.

Yes.
For code examples use the search function of this forum. Hint, search for '0x2100' (the EEPROM address in a PIC16).
