5.12 - Write RAM [U12 Datasheet]

Writes 4 bytes to the U12's internal memory.

Note: Bytes are written down from the starting address. For example, if you write starting at address 0x203, then byte 0 is written to 0x203, byte 1 is written to 0x202, byte 2 is written to 0x201, and byte 0 is written to 0x200.

Table 5.12-1.

Command
Byte #	Description
0	Data Byte 3
1	Data Byte 2
2	Data Byte 1
3	Data Byte 0
4	XXXXXXXX
5	01X1XX01 (Write RAM)
6	Most Significant Address Byte
7	Least Significant Address Byte


Response
Byte #	Description

1	Readback of data byte 3
2	Readback of data byte 2
3	Readback of data byte 1
4	Readback of data byte 0
5	XXXXXXXX
6	Most Significant Address Byte
7	Least Significant Address Byte
