ATmega128

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.

Assembly Code Example

EEPROM_write:

; Wait for completion of previous write

sbic EECR,EEWE

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 EEMWE

sbi EECR,EEMWE

; Start eeprom write by setting EEWE

sbi EECR,EEWE

ret

C Code Example

void EEPROM_write(unsigned int uiAddress, unsigned char ucData)

{

/* Wait for completion of previous write */

while(EECR & (1<<EEWE))

;

/* Set up address and data registers */

EEAR = uiAddress;

EEDR = ucData;

/* Write logical one to EEMWE */

EECR |= (1<<EEMWE);

/* Start eeprom write by setting EEWE */

EECR |= (1<<EEWE);

}
