Hello Everyone,

I know how to work with Flash w/r on MSP430, but, i want to know if there is a wise way to put float data on memory without the usage of blocks?

That is what LBJ said to. IMO, Obama is learning who really runs the
country now and the real reason why we are there now.

Is there a way to save a float value on the rom memory on the program execution?
The float variable have twice the width of a word, so i was thinking that it would be simple as breaking it in two pieces.
But i wonder if this is possible or not. =)

Just use a union. Write the float through the 'float' member and then read
the individual bytes/words by the byte or word members.

Eg:

Union {
float my_float_var;
unsigned short my_words[2];
unsigned char my_bytes[4];
} float_mem;

This is just an example for illustration.

Best Regards,
Kris
