I am going to be a pain in the a... but could the moderator delete not Q68 related posts, please (including mine).
Thanks.
Keeping threads readable should be evrybody's concern.
We owe that to the fab work by the Q68 designer (to me).
No offense, forgive me, I am a little bit to french (=very frank. That is not arrogance, it is culture, 'by design', my intentionis not to hurt your feelings).

From a note on the other thread - it mentions 'fast ram area'
What is that? Is this automatically available or are specific drivers required to harness it?

The way I understand it there is an area where your code (or / and data accessed to if in this memory area ?) will run much faster.Pr0f wrote:From a note on the other thread - it mentions 'fast ram area'

Very interesting, of course.

No sepcial drivers, memory can be allocated by a simple SMSQ/E Basic Command.Pr0f wrote:From a note on the other thread - it mentions 'fast ram area'

Access is 4 times faster than normal SDRAM. Due to the small size, only suitable for short and very speed criticial routines.
