Hello,
About page sizes:
There are some details from ST doc: The 2 upper pages have to be unlocked with a specific value for these sectors.
The reference manual, chapter 3.8.6 page 63/835 Flash option control register (FLASH_OPTCR), bits nWRP[7:6] shows a specific context which is somehow unclear to me.
I was wondering if the stmhal library does care about those bits or not?
Also, I tried the F4DISCOVERY values and did not had success: Apparently, the magic word address was right in the middle of the sector 6 which also contained the saved values.
I think, it is a matter of page size (tried only 16K while it probably should be 128K) and number of pages (tried 3 while it again probably should be 2).
So I have to spend more time on that point.
As a side point, you can get:
a- the size of the flash incorporated to your STM32 by peeking address 0x1FFF 7A22, value in KiloBytes, see page 829/835. This could be used to determine what special tweaks have to be done, depending upon the sector to be programmed / erased.
b- a unique id, 96-bit long, of the stm32 by peeking at address 0x1FFF 7A10
Do you use any of those already?
That's all for today...
