3–16 SROM Mini-Debugger Command Set
User Commands
dm
The deposit memory (dm) command writes a data pattern to one memory location.
Control Flags
!d (negate data flag)
ba (base address flag)
fr (follow-with-read flag)
fw (follow-with-write flag)
lo (loop flag)
qw (quadword data flag)
wa (write address flag)
Description
The deposit memory command writes a data pattern to the specified memory
location. If the quadword flag is enabled, then 64 bits of data are written; otherwise,
only 32 bits of data are used. The data pattern is provided by the user but can be
affected by the state of the write address flag and the negate data flag.
Example
In this example, a continuous write to address 500000 is performed with the loop
flag enabled. Note that because the quadword flag is disabled, only the low 32 bits of
the data pattern entered are written.
