DATA command and a 16f628

[Darrel Taylor]

Hi mom,

The 16F628 only has 128 bytes of EEPROM, so all that stuff won't fit.

Since these appear to be "Fixed" commands that never change, EEPROM may not be the best place for them anyhow.

If you are trying to put them in EEPROM in order to save program space, you may want to check out this thread...

I tried to compile strings.pbp and strings-16.pbp using pbp 2.45, Microcode studio 2.3.0.0 and MPASM from mplab ide v 7.3.1. It errors to :

Error[113] c:\pbc\pbcpic14.lib 428 : Symbol not previously defined (EEADRH)

I'm stuck!! Please Advise

Forgot to state that that occurs with a 16f628A.

Hi Richard,

Good Point!

Using that technique requires that the PIC is able to read from it's own Flash memory. &nbsp; Which the 16F628(A) can't do.


yourmomOS,

Please disregard that last post. Well, except for the "It won't fit" part.

So you still have 2 choices
1. Change Your PIC to and have one that can read from it's own Flash mem to fit your Strings
2. Keep the same PIC BUT Save your String to an external EEPROM.
