单片机内的Flash与EEPROM作用及区别(国外英语资料) The data of the MCU running in the RAM (random memory), the data in the RAM after the power failure is zero Law reserved, then how to make the data after power loss is not lost? This requires the use of EEPROM or FLASHROM and so on Memory to implement. In the traditional SCM system, the memory is extended outside the chip, and the microcontroller is connected with the memory Communicate over data interfaces such as IIC or SPI. This will not only increase development costs, but also spend time on program development More ideas. In the STC microcontroller, built in EEPROM (in fact, the use of IAP technology to read and write internal FLASH) Implementing EEPROM), which saves the extra chip resources and makes it more convenient to use. Here is a detailed description of the STC sheet Built-in EEPROM for tablet machine and method for using same. Flash is for programming, and can be referred to as program memory, which can erase and write, but basically the entire sector Generally speaking, the flash in the microcontroller is used to store the running code, and can not be changed during the operation; EEPROM is used to save user data, can change the operation process, such as the alarm time initialization of a clock is set to 12:00, later in the operation to 6:00, which is stored in the EEPROM, not afraid of power down, even if the re power does not need to re adjust to 6:00 The following is a detailed online statement, feeling good: The biggest difference between FLASH and EEPROM is FLASH by sector operation, EEPROM byte operation, two different addressing method, structure storage unit is different, FLASH circuit structure is simple, the same capacity of chip area is small, cost is lower than that of EEPROM, and therefore is suitable for use as program memory, EEPROM is more used as a data memory non volatile. Of course, FLASH data memory is also OK, but the operation is far more trouble than EEPROM, so the design of MCU more humane will
