Hello,
I'm working with infineon TC277TE controller and TASKING compiler.
As it is given in the user manaul that "The erased state of a Flash cell is logical ‘0’" . I'm following the same procedure to Erase PFlash are as given in the user manual , but after erase the state of flash cell is showing ASCII symbol '?' (as shown in below screen shot) .
Please help me to get logical '0' after erase.
- Thanks & Regards
Veeresh

As side effect of the all-0 error detection an erased Flash range can’t be read without ECC errors.If you want to fill a memory range with 0, you need to erase it, and then write the range with 0s, which will generate a correct ECC.
