7.3 In-System Reprogrammable Flash Program Memory
The ATmega3208/3209 contains 32 KB On-Chip In-System Reprogrammable Flash memory for program storage. Since all AVR instructions are 16 or 32 bits wide, the Flash is organized with a 16-bit data width. For write protection, the Flash program memory space can be divided into three sections: Bootloader section, application code section, and application data section. Code placed in one section may be restricted from writing to addresses in other sections. See the NVMCTRL documentation for more details.
The Program Counter can address the whole program memory. The procedure for writing Flash memory is described in detail in the documentation of the Nonvolatile Memory Controller (NVMCTRL) peripheral.
The Flash memory is mapped into the data space and is accessible with normal
LD/ST
instructions. For LD/ST
instructions, the
Flash is mapped from address 0x4000. The Flash memory can be read with the
LPM
instruction. For the LPM
instruction, the
Flash start address is 0x0000.
