Code Placement#
Code Placement API.
Provides support for executing code from RAM rather than flash memory. Note
Inlined functions are placed wherever the calling function resides.
Use Cases#
Consider placing code in RAM when:
The function is performance-critical and called frequently
The function must execute with minimal latency
The function is called during flash operations (erase/write)
Deterministic timing is required (eliminates flash wait states)
Linker Requirements#
The linker script must define the appropriate RAM section "text_application_ram" for code placement.
The "text_application_ram" section is pre-configured in Silicon Labs linker scripts, but custom linker scripts must include the "text_application_ram" section.
Usage#
In your .h file:
#include "sl_code_classification.h"
SL_CODE_RAM
void MyPrint(const char* string);
Macros#
Prepend a function definition with this macro to place it in RAM.
