EEPROM in pic16f887 and using macros

[charu2539211]

HI

can i define the program writing in EEPROM as a Macro and use it in my main program?? if so can u tell me the steps to do so??

I am using MPLAB IDE, PIC16f887 processor.

you can write.. but you have to remember that the macro functions will expand each time when you calling the function....

better option is writing the function as a function and defining the particular offset (desired starting location) as macro....

ya i know!! but i will be using it many times.. so i thought using macros will be a better option. and i dont have problem if the size of the program increases.

Are you using Assembly or C Language to write your main code?

Examples in C:

PIC C - Use of the PIC16F84 EEPROM

Read and write operations in Internal EEPROM of PIC16F877A


Examples in Assembly:

EEProm Routines (EEProm.inc)

PIC16F Internal EEPROM
