command to execute the control program in the RAM area. The procedures to execute the control program in
the RAM area is shown in " 18.4.1.1 How to write to the flash memory by executing the control program in the
RAM area (in the RAM loader mode within the serial PROM mode) ".
To access to the flash memory by using peripheral functions in the serial PROM mode, run the RAM loader
The serial PROM mode is used to access to the flash memory by the control program provided in the
area or in units of 4 kbytes, whereas read operations can be performed by an one transfer instruction. However,
the command sequence method is adopted for write and erase operations, requiring several-byte transfer instruc-
tions for each operation.

executed in the RAM area.)
(Steps 1 and 2 are controlled by the BOOTROM, and steps 3 to 9 are controlled by the control program
Note 1: Before writing to the flash memory in the RAM area, disable interrupts by setting the interrupt master
Note 2: Since the watchdog timer is disabled by the BOOTROM in the RAM loader mode, it is not required to
1. Transfer the write control program to the RAM area in the RAM loader mode.
2. Jump to the RAM area.
3. Disable (DI) the interrupt master enable flag (IMF←"0").
4. Set FLSCR<FLSMD> to "0011B" (to enable command sequence execution).
5. Execute the erase command sequence.
6. Read the same flash memory address twice.
7. Execute the write command sequence.
8. Read the same flash memory address twice.
9. Set FLSCR<FLSMD> to "1100B" (to disable command sequence execution).
enable flag (IMF) to "0". Usually disable interrupts by executing the DI instruction at the head of the
write control program in the RAM area.
disable the watchdog timer by the RAM loader program.
(Repeat step 8 until the same data is read by two consecutive reads operations.)
(Repeat step 6 until the same data is read by two consecutive reads operations.)
