Preventing EEPROM Corruption
The next code examples show assembly and C functions for reading the EEPROM. The
examples assume that interrupts are controlled so that no interrupts will occur during execu-
tion of these functions.
During periods of low Vcc, the EEPROM data can be corrupted because the supply voltage is
too low for the CPU and the EEPROM to operate properly. These issues are the same as for
board level systems using EEPROM, and the same design solutions should be applied.
An EEPROM data corruption can be caused by two situations when the voltage is too low.
First, a regular write sequence to the EEPROM requires a minimum voltage to operate cor-
rectly. Secondly, the CPU itself can execute instructions incorrectly, if the supply voltage is too
low.
EEPROM data corruption can easily be avoided by following this design recommendation:
Assembly Code Example
C Code Example
EEPROM_read:
unsigned char EEPROM_read(unsigned char ucAddress)
{
}
; Wait for completion of previous write
sbic
rjmp
; Set up address (r18:r17) in address register
out
out
; Start eeprom read by writing EERE
sbi
; Read data from data register
in
ret
/* Wait for completion of previous write */
while(EECR & (1<<EEPE))
/* Set up address register */
EEAR = ucAddress;
/* Start eeprom read by writing EERE */
EECR |= (1<<EERE);
/* Return data from data register */
return EEDR;
