User memory areas

The user memory can be split into different areas, each one with a distinct access privilege.

RF and I2C read and write commands are legal only within a same zone:

•

In RF, a multiple read or a multiple write command is not executed and returns the error code 0Fh if

addresses cross the area borders.

•

In I2C, a read data always return FFh after crossing an area border. A write command is not acknowledged

and not executed if the command crosses the area border.

Each user memory area is defined by its ending block address ENDAi. The starting block address is defined by

the end of the preceding area.

There are three ENDAi registers in the configuration system memory, used to define the end block addresses of

Area 1, Area 2 and Area 3. The end of Area 4 is always the last block of memory and is not configurable.

of user memory

On factory delivery all ENDAi are set to maximum value, only Area1 exists and includes the full user memory.

A granularity of 8 Blocks (32 Bytes) is offered to code area ending points.

An area’s end limit is coded as followed in ENDAi registers:

•

Last RF block address of area = 8 x ENDAi + 7 => ENDAi = int(Last Areai RF block address / 8)

•

Last I2C byte address of area = 32 * ENDAi + 31 => ENDAi = int(Last Areai I2C byte address / 32)

•

As a consequence, ENDA1 = 0 minimum size of Area 1 is 8 blocks (32 Bytes).
