TMS570LS0432: Use TMS570 flash memory for data (write / read during runtime)

Hello Sunil,

thank you for your reply. I found an example code "C:\ti\Hercules\HALCoGen\v04.07.00\examples\TMS570LS04x_03x_02x\example_TI_Fee_Write_Read.c". I don't want to test the flash memory, so is the following code enough:

#define BLOCK_NUMBER 0x01

sint64 value = 0;

void main() {
	
	TI_Fee_Init();
	
	readValue();
	
	// ...
	
	while (1) {
		
		if (/* value changed */) {
			writeValue();
		}
		
		// ...
	}
}

void readValue() {
	TI_Fee_Read(BLOCK_NUMBER, 0, &value, 8);
}

void writeValue() {
	TI_Fee_WriteAsync(BLOCK_NUMBER, &value);
}

Then I'd like to ask the following questions:

1. What's the difference between WriteSync and WriteAsync?

2. I found that the block size is configured in ti_fee_cfg.c file, but where do I programm the adress where the value is stored in flash memory?

3. What ist the TI_Fee_MainFunction() used for?

Best regards

Michel

Hi Vishwanath,

so do I need to call this TI_Fee_MainFunction after calling TI_Fee_Init() like this:

do {
	TI_Fee_MainFunction();
	delay();
	Status=TI_Fee_GetStatus(0);
}
while(Status!= IDLE);

Or does the init function call this itself?

If I understood you correctly, I could use the TI_Fee_WriteSync() function in writeValue() function to avoid calling the above loop.

Since I haven't used the EEPROM before all the space should be free.
