FRAM71 Tricks - Dave Frederickson - 10-28-2015 03:06 PM

Into a 71B with 1MB Top/Bottom FRAM, install a memory module. When FREEPORT'ed this creates a shared IRAM between the top and bottom FRAM configurations. This is useful for programs used in both configurations or moving files between FRAM chips.

Note: The memory module must be FREEPORT'ed else cross-linked file chains between the top and bottom configurations could crash the 71.
