8.3 Memory Map

The FT-X family MTP memory has various areas which come under three main categories:



User Memory Area



Configuration Memory Area (writable)



Configuration Memory Area (non-writable)

User Memory Area

The User Memory Areas are highlighted in Green on the memory map. They can be read and written via

USB on the FT230X. All locations within this range are freely programmable; no areas have special

functions and there is no checksum for the user area.

Note that the application should take into account the specification for the number of write cycles in

Section 5.4 if it will be writing to the MTP memory multiple times.

Configuration Memory Area (writable)

This area stores the configuration data for the device, including the data which is returned to the host in

the configuration descriptors (e.g. the VID, PID and string descriptions) and also values which set the

hardware configuration (the signal assigned to each CBUS pin for example).

These values can have a significant effect on the behaviour of the device. Steps must be taken to ensure

that these locations are not written to un-intentionally by an application which is intended to access only

the user area.

This area is included in a checksum which covers configuration areas of the memory, and so changing

any value can also cause this checksum to fail.

Configuration Memory Area (non-writable)

This is a reserved area and the application should not write to this area of memory. Any attempt to write

these locations will fail
