Performing a Page Write

To execute Page Write, set up the address in the Z-pointer, write “00000101” to SPMCSR and
execute SPM within four clock cycles after writing SPMCSR. The data in R1 and R0 is ignored.
The page address must be written to PCPAGE. Other bits in the Z-pointer must be written to
zero during this operation.

• The CPU is halted during the Page Write operation.

Addressing the Flash During Self-Programming

The Z-pointer is used to address the SPM commands.

Since the Flash is organized in pages (see

Table 19-8 on page 142

), the Program Counter can

be treated as having two different sections. One section, consisting of the least significant bits, is
addressing the words within a page, while the most significant bits are addressing the pages.
This is shown in

Figure 19-7 on page 151

. Note that the Page Erase and Page Write operations

are addressed independently. Therefore it is of major importance that the software addresses
the same page in both the Page Erase and Page Write operation.

The LPM instruction uses the Z-pointer to store the address. Since this instruction addresses the
Flash byte-by-byte, also the LSB (bit Z0) of the Z-pointer is used.
