There is 2 flash blocks on Motorla DG128: Flash Block 0 and Flash. Block 1. For Flash Block 1 i had set the security byte(0xFF0F) to 0xFE (security disabled) and set protection byte of block 0 (0xFF0D) to protect range 0xF000-0xFFFF (contains my bootrom and flash protections bytes). All working fine. But now I need to write flash block 1. But, then i erasing last address range of block 1, byte at address 0xFF0F also changed to 0xFF. What wrong whith it? changing. The byte at 0xFF0F can't be changed, becouse: 1) I writing flash 1, not flash 0. 0xFF0F address contained in flash 0. 2) Full 0xF000-0xFFFF range is protected. No bytes from it can not changing. |

Flash Block 0 corresponds to Pages 3C - 3F and Flash Block 1 corresponds to
Pages 38 - 3B (counter intuitive than can be expected). Check figure 3-1 of: http://www.freescale.com/files/microcontrollers/doc/ref_manual/S12FTS128KV2.pdf This explains why the protection doesn't work as you expect it. You need to protect the same address range in Flash Block 0 (rather than Block 1). In order to protect the $F000 - FFFF range, you need to write the appropriate protection byte to $FF0D instead of $FF0C.

Hello, Doron!
Thank you for answer. I forget to say, i program flash in special mode. Yes, i know about protection: 0xFF0C is protection byte for Flash Block 1 0xFF0D is protection byte for Flash Block 0. But I can't understand why secure byte changed (location 0xFF0F). Then I erasing Flash Block 1 (Flash Block 0 area 0xF000 is protected!), the byte 0xFF0F (this area in not banked!) is changed to 0xFF. And this is catastrophic for me - after this i need execute unprotection procedure described in AN2400/D. Maybe I do something wrong: I erase flash in Special mode and using in erasing procedure instead of: *((unsigned int *)(FLASH_ADDR)) = DUMMY_BYTE; FCMD = FLASH_ERASE; this code: FADDR = FLASH_ADDR; FDATA = DUMMY FCMD = FLASH_ERASE; In DG64 Flash Guide registers FADDR, FDATA mentioned as reserved registers. But all my erasing/writing procedures (in special mode!) of DG128's FLash Block 0 working fine for a year. --- In , Doron Fael <doronf@n...> wrote: > Flash Block 0 corresponds to Pages 3C - 3F and Flash Block 1 corresponds to > Pages 38 - 3B (counter intuitive than can be expected). > Check figure 3-1 of: > http://www.freescale.com/files/microcontrollers/doc/ref_manual/S12FTS1 28KV2.pdf > > This explains why the protection doesn't work as you expect it.

Location 0xFF0F is part of Flash Block 1 - not Flash Block 0. In other words: You need to protect Flash Block 1 - not Flash block 0, in order to protect location 0xFF0F from being erased.

Maybe i stupid, but I can't understand how it can be. Text on page 15
of FTS 128K User guide is describe Flash Block 0 holding protection bytes for all other Flash blocks. And security byte is one for all blocks. And it's located at Flash Block 0. Page 15. Text under Table 3.1 : Security information that allows the MCU to prevent intrusive access to the Flash module is stored in the Flash Protection/Options field of Flash block 0 as described in Table 3-1. --- In , Doron Fael <doronf@n...> wrote: > Location 0xFF0F is part of Flash Block 1 - not Flash Block 0. > > In other words: > > You need to protect Flash Block 1 - not Flash block 0, in order to protect > location 0xFF0F from being erased. > > Doron > Nohau Corporation > HC12 In-Circuit Emulators > www.nohau.com/emul12pc.html > > At 08:36 03/08/2004 +0000, you wrote: > >Hello, Doron! > > > >Thank you for answer.

I am sorry. My mistake. My email from yesterday contained the right information. The email from today was wrong (I got confused between Block 1 and Block 0). Which S12DG128 mask set are you using? I believe early mask sets (0L85D) did not have Flash protection and security fully working. Maybe this is the source of your problem.

Yes, i have 0L85D mask. :( But Freescale web-site on DG128 page provide erratas only for mask sets 0L40K. :( --- In , Doron Fael <doronf@n...> wrote: > I am sorry.

Hi, Using the Freescale keyword search for 0L85D I got: http://www.freescale.com/files/microcontrollers/doc/errata/MSE9S12DT128B_0L85D.pdf They keep shuffling things around...
