#169430 - RE: RAM is NOT cleared on reset. Responding to: ???'s previous message |
That is to say, there is nothing in the hardware that clears the RAM on reset.
If you're coding in assembler, you should know whether you have coded anything that would overwrite RAM at reset. If you're writing in 'C', it is most likely that the standard startup code will clear RAM at reset, unless you take specific steps to prevent that - see the specific tool documentation for details. |
