2.6 IC Memory Card (for FP2-C2P/FP2-C3P)
Example:
A 2MB card can be formatted as 1 MB, with 1 MB being used
as a “format field” and the remaining 1 MB being used as an
“expanded memory field”.
The entire field can be used as a “format field” or as an “ex-
panded memory field”, and the card used exclusively as a
memory card for saving programs or data memory.
If the FROM section is specified as the “expanded memory
field”, the card can be used only for reading data.

2MB AIC50020 Data is written to IC memory
card using “Copy File to IC

software.
Serves as dedicated memory
for reading data.
Data is written using pro-
gramming tool software.
Data is read from IC memory
card using high−level instruc-
tion F12 (ICRD).
No battery back-
up is required, so
this is ideal for
saving programs.

Notes
• Both the SRAM and FROM type can be divided into a “format
field” and an “expanded memory field” for use.
• When using the card as a program memory, there are four
ways to read programs:
− Programs are read automatically when the power is turned
on (IC memory card operation).
− Programs are read using the “ROM → RAM” operation of
programming tool software.
− Programs are read using the “IC Card Service” of pro-
gramming tool software.
− Programs are read using the F14 (PGRD) instruction of the
sequence program.
