Method and arrangement for programming and verifying EEPROM pages and a corresponding computer software product and a corresponding computer-readable storage medium

摘要

The invention relates to a method and arrangement for programming and verifying EEPROM pages and a corresponding computer software product and a corresponding computer-readable storage medium, which can be used in particular to speed up the programming into the EEPROM of large amounts of data or code, such as occurs for example when smart cards are being personalized. The invention relates to an arrangement that sets up a DMA connection between EEPROM and RAM-not including the core of the microcontroller involved-and makes possible automatic programming of data blocks of random length from the RAM to the EEPROM including the verification of the programming operation against the original data in the RAM under the control of the EEPROM logic.
