question about internal eeprom

mass · Guest

I'm a young pic programmer so perhaps I ask a stupid thing.
I would like to program the PIC with my program code. Then (that is to say in an indipendent manner) I need to write to internal eeprom a table of data. I need to change data values with programmer but also pic code must be able to read/write that table of data.
It is possible or not?

Thank You

Hi,

Yes, that is definitely possible!

Cheers,

It is possible to write data to the internal EEPROM while writing the program to the PIC. You could write the table to it when you program the PIC. That would save you a step and possibly some code space. Then, there are commands that allow you to read from and write to the EEPROM while the PIC is running. These will allow you to read the table and modify it as needed.
