M95P32: Missing RAM block in the Block diagram

Hi,

Why is there no RAM block inside the Block diagram?

In the document AN5747 (Page EEPROM memory architecture) there is a RAM block mentioned, but in the block diagram from the M95P32 datasheet no RAM block is available/visible.

    Typically, application notes contain additional application hints, but further explanatory information can also be found. The RAM buffer mentioned in AN5747 is a necessary part of the ECC function and is not directly accessible to the user as RAM, so that its mention only serves as an illustration of the functionality of the ECC function.

    Does this answers your question?

    Hi, 

    Thanks for the answer.

    Correct the user can not directly access the RAM.

    But for me it would make it obvious when there is somewhere a RAM block, that during power-loss some data can be lost. It's really good explained in the AN5747 application note, but If would see RAM already in the block diagram I would then definitely check the application note.

    best regards,
