The following code examples show one assembly and one C function for writing to the EEPROM. The examples
assume that interrupts are controlled (e.g. by disabling interrupts globally) so that no interrupts will occur during
execution of these functions. The examples also assume that no Flash Boot Loader is present in the software. If
such code is present, the EEPROM write function must also wait for any ongoing SPM command to finish.
Note: 1. See “About code examples” on page 17.
Assembly Code Example
(1)
EEPROM_write:
; Wait for completion of previous write
sbic EECR,EEPE
rjmp EEPROM_write
; Set up address (r18:r17) in address register
out EEARH, r18
out EEARL, r17
; Write data (r16) to Data Register
out EEDR,r16
; Write logical one to EEMPE
sbi EECR,EEMPE
; Start eeprom write by setting EEPE
sbi EECR,EEPE
ret
C Code Example
(1)
void EEPROM_write(unsigned int uiAddress, unsigned char ucData)
{
/* Wait for completion of previous write */
while(EECR & (1<<EEPE))
;
/* Set up address and Data Registers */
EEAR = uiAddress;
EEDR = ucData;
/* Write logical one to EEMPE */
EECR |= (1<<EEMPE);
/* Start eeprom write by setting EEPE */
EECR |= (1<<EEPE);
