the radiation error can be circumvented by using ECC memory, but that also necessitates having nine memory chips.
Flash is written in blocks, not bytesOn Sat, Aug 16, 2014 at 5:49 PM, rpcfender@... [xl7] <xl7@yahoogroups.com> wrote:
Hi Jack
thanks for the clarification about the DRAM.As I recall Soft error error due to radiation was a big research thing a few years back (R. C.Baumann, T.J. O'Gorman etc) but perhaps I got the wrong end of the stick.With Flash I know you have to section erase but I thought you could write to individual bytes, but I take your point. I have always considered Flash as EEPROMBack to being a musician.All the bestRoyce
