Discussion Groups | Rabbit-Semi | RCM2200 Flash
This is a group for folks designing and programming embedded systems using the Rabbit Semiconductor C-programmable microcontroller. Rabbit Semi is a spin-off from Z-World who makes a variety of embedded modules and tools. This group is not affiliated with either Rabbit or Z-World, but is a user forum for sharing ideas, asking questions, flaunting knowledge, and other typical user group stuff. The Rabbit is a powerful uC, supported by a full-featured C-compiler.
RCM2200 Flash - bluetech_th - Jun 13 9:29:25 2008
I save some parameter such as IP address , configuration and etc in FS
file system. I will save these parameters when I send a TCP command for
writing .
My partner write a software on PC to polling the rabbit and write to the
flash memory every time he connected ( every 5-10 min) for two years
ago.
Now my product was failed. I guess that flash memory was damaged.
Anyone has experience for changing flash memory ( SST 39SF020A )
If I replace with a new empty one , RCM2200 can work or not ?

Hi.
The flash memory has a short lifetime at high amount write operations. I
think 100000 cycles. You should care that writing to flash should be only
done when necessary. Alternatively, if you have enough free pages in flash,
you can move from one to other and and finaly at end of memory back to the
first. This will enlarge the usage of the flash memory expressed in time.

Have you thought of using battery backed RAM as an alternative. Works very well, lifetime
should be about 5 years for a battery and you have no write limitations.

Re: RCM2200 Flash - bluetech_th - Jun 14 2:56:02 2008
I forgot to tell you that I don't want to write too often into flash. But My
partner make a mistake to write into flash and maybe damage the flash.
Now I have two failure modules . I don't know which component was
damaged . Is the flash really damage ? or other component rabbit2000
or RAM ?
How can I know ?
case1 : I could download to RCM2200 but time out while waiting for
response
case2 : I could not communicate to RCM2200 at all.
It is easy to buy a new one. But I would like to know that it cause by my
hardware design or software design or not ?

Re: RCM2200 Flash - bluetech_th - Jun 18 9:22:01 2008
Hi all,
After compiling sample program "memory_usage.c " with code and
bios option in flash , the response is " While sending user program
timeout while wating for response from target".
But ,when I compile code and bios in ram , RCM2200 run normally.
Is My flash memory faulty ?
