Modules#
Application#
Application bootloader and generic EEPROM Interface.
The file bootloader-eeprom.h defines generic EEPROM parameters.
Changing EEPROM size will change the size of the application image space without changing the size or relative location of the recovery and reserved sections. See eeprom.c for more information on modifying EEPROM functionality.
See bootloader-eeprom.h for source code.
See app-bootloader.h for source code.

halEepromRead#
uint8_t halEepromRead (uint32_t address, uint8_t * data, uint16_t len)
Read from the external EEPROM.
N/A | address | The address to start reading from. |
N/A | data | A pointer to where read data is stored. |
N/A | len | The length of data to read. |
This is the standard external EEPROM read function. The format of this call must not be altered. However, the content can be changed to work with a different device. Note: Not all storage implementations support accesses that are not page aligned, refer to the HalEepromInformationType structure for more information.

Write to the external EEPROM.
N/A | address | The address to start writing to. |
N/A | data | A pointer to the data to write. |
N/A | len | The length of data to write. |
This is the standard external EEPROM write function. The format of this call must not be altered. However, the content can be changed to work with a different device. Note: Not all storage implementations support accesses that are not page aligned, refer to the HalEepromInformationType structure for more information. Note: Some storage devices require contents to be erased before new data can be written, and will return an EEPROM_ERR_ERASE_REQUIRED error if write is called on a location that is not already erased. Refer to the HalEepromInformationType structure to see if the attached storage device requires erasing.
Returns

halEepromErase#
uint8_t halEepromErase (uint32_t address, uint32_t totalLength)
Erases the specified region of the external EEPROM.
N/A | address | Address to start erasing |
N/A | totalLength | Length of the region to be erased |
The format of this call must not be altered. However, the content
can be changed to work with a different device.
Note: Most devices require the specified region to be page aligned,
and will return an error if an unaligned region is specified.
Note: Many devices take an extremely long time to perform an erase
operation. When erasing a large region, it may be preferable to
make multiple calls to this API so that other application
functionality can be performed while the erase is in progress.
The ::halEepromBusy() API may be used to determine
when the last erase operation has completed. Erase timing
information can be found in the HalEepromInformationType structure.
