22. Fast Flash Programming Interface (FFPI)
22.1 Description
The Fast Flash Programming Interface (FFPI) provides parallel high-volume programming using a standard gang
programmer. The parallel interface is fully handshaked and the device is considered to be a standard EEPROM.
Additionally, the parallel protocol offers an optimized access to all the embedded Flash functionalities.
Although the Fast Flash Programming Mode is a dedicated mode for high volume programming, this mode is not
designed for in-situ programming.
