MEMORY PARTITIONS

Data accesses to 002000–002FFFH depend on the REMAP bit and the EA# input:

If remapping is disabled (CCB1.2 = 0), accesses are external.

If remapping is enabled (CCB1.2 = 1), accesses depend on EA#:

If EA# is low, accesses are external (REMAP is ignored).

If EA# is high, accesses are to the internal ROM.

5.6MEMORY CONFIGURATION EXAMPLES

This section provides examples of memory configurations for both 64-Kbyte and 1-Mbyte mode. Each example consists of a circuit diagram and a memory map that describes how the address space is implemented. Chapter 13, “Interfacing with External Me mory,” discus ses the interface in detail and provides additional examples.

5.6.1Example 1: Using the 64-Kbyte Mode

Figure 5-9 shows a system designed for operation in the 64-Kbyte mode. Code executes only from page FFH, which is implemented by the 64-Kbyte flash memory. The 32-Kbyte RAM in the upper half of page 00H stores near data. Table 5-12 on page 5-28 lists the memory addresses for this example. (For memory map details, see Table 5-1 on page 5-4.)
