Almost 4K, but it's in 256 byte banks.Nigel Goodwin said:How much RAM does the 18F4620 have?, big buffers are always a problem on PIC's.
Umm... Not really. I ventured into 18F's many years ago when they were something new. I have tons of different PICs. My reason for using the 4620? I threw a dart. I had it. Hadn't used it yet. "Ok, that's the one I'll use."donniedj said:Futz, If I remember correctly you have just ventured into the 18F family? I also thought you started to use 16-bit micros.
No good reason at all. I have a 24F that I should have used, but where's the challenge there? It's already 3.3V.Any reason for not using a 16-bit micro? With the 16-bit chips Banks are eliminated and all the problems associated with them. 24FJ64GA002 is an equivalent chip minus EEPROM.
Ya, I grabbed C18 and did a bit of reading of the manual. But then I had to do some real work and haven't had time to pursue it. Tonight for sure...Mike said:I seem to recall this subject coming up on Forum.Microchip several times but I haven't had the need with C18 yet so I don't remember the solution. Might be worth a search at Forum.Microchip for you though.
You could be right. C30 does do 512's though, cuz the book I'm stealing code from does 512 byte arrays and it's a PIC 24F and C30 book.Pommie said:I think you are limited to 256 byte arrays in C18. There may be some magic that can be performed with the linker script but, if there is, I don't know it.
