It appears that in a few of our products we
have had bits in the program flash memory (DSP56F805) revert to their
unprogrammed state after only a few days. Has anyone else seen
this?

losing flash memory in the DSP56F805FV80

It looks like that register only controls the erase times, but maybe they're not being erased long enough before we program them. Do we need to erase the chips before we program them? Can we assume when they are factory fresh that they are fully erased?

If the divisor is not set properly, then you won't assert the programming voltage to the flash cells for long enough and your product will lose its memory.

Hi, I had a DSP56F807 which sometimes showed verify errors after programming, but most times the verify after the programming was ok. I did not see that programmed bits changed after some time, because I did not special tests for that. Kind regards, Wim de Haan Exendis B.V.
