pic24 non-volatile
Hi there,
I have a couple of questions about memory allocation.
I need to take in some values from a user's terminal into a separate memory chip (such as 24LC256) through a PIC processor. I have been asked to store some data in the separate memory chip, I was told this is because it is non-volatile memory.
I wonder if I could store these equations in the PIC itself. The PIC I'm using is a flash memory PIC 16F877A. Looking at the data sheet, it seems that there are a couple of different areas of memory in the PIC that can be accessed.
I do not understand the data sheet well enough to see which is RAM and which is ROM, but it seems to me that the code itself must be stored in non-volatile memory?
I would appreciate some discussion about this very much!
