Flash Memory
11.1 Introduction
This section describes the operation of the embedded FLASH memory. This memory can be read,
programmed, and erased from a single external supply. The program, erase, and read operations are
enabled through the use of an internal charge pump.
11.2 Functional Description
The FLASH memory is an array of 7,680 bytes for the MC68HC908GR8 or 4,096 bytes for the
MC68HC908GR4 with an additional 36 bytes of user vectors and one byte used for block protection. An
erased bit reads as 1 and a programmed bit reads as a 0. The program and erase operations are
facilitated through control bits in the Flash Control Register (FLCR). Details for these operations appear
later in this section.
The FLASH is organized internally as a 8192-word by 8-bit CMOS page erase, byte (8-bit) program
Embedded Flash Memory. Each page consists of 64 bytes. The page erase operation erases all words
within a page. A page is composed of two adjacent rows.
The address ranges for the user memory and vectors are as follows:
1. No security feature is absolutely secure. However, Freescale’s strategy is to make reading or copying the FLASH difficult for

unauthorized users.
