Program Memory

MSC1210 Memory Organization
For example, in the Y5 model there is 32k flash memory available. This 32k
may be configured as either program memory, data memory, or both. This con-
figuration is set at the moment the firmware is loaded onto the MSC1210 by
setting hardware configuration register HCR0 as per Table 2−1. This table in-
dicates the total amount of program and data memory available for each part
revision given a specific HCR0 setting.

111 (default) 4kB 0kB 8kB 0kB 16kB 0kB 32kB 0kB
Note: When a 0kB program memory configuration is selected, program execution is external
For example, setting the DFSEL bits to 110 with a MSC1210Y5 would cause
31kb of on-chip flash memory to be partitioned as program memory and 1kb
of flash memory to be partitioned as data memory.
Table 2−2 indicates where the assigned memory will be located in address
space. This table provides essentially the same information as Table 2−1, but
also indicates where the memory will be located. For example, the DFSEL =
110 example in the previous paragraph (31kb of on-chip flash program
memory, 1k of on-chip flash data memory) appears in Table 2−2 as flash pro-
gram memory from 0000
H
to 7BFF
H
(which is 31k) and flash data memory from
0400
H
to 07FF
H
(which is 1k).
Note that the Data memory address starts at 0400
H
because the first 1k
(0000
H
-03FF
H
) is, by default, used to address the on-chip extended SRAM.
The location of on-chip extended SRAM may be changed by using the Memory
Control (MCON) SFR. By setting bit 0 of MCON, the on-chip extended SRAM
may be moved from 0000
H
-03FF
H
to 8400
H
-87FF
H
. However, on-chip ex-
tended flash data memory always begins at 0400
H
regardless of whether or
not SRAM is located at 0000
H
or 8400
H
