Store values in internal flash

[GauravK]

Can variable values be stored in some fixed addresses of internal flash and retrieved from them after reset? 

is there any example for same.

You can write to erased memory cells. This must happen in chunks, e.g. 256 bits on H7 and down to single bytes on some older families. If the retrieved value needs to be reporgrammed later, look for EPROM emulation.

Hi,

I am working on STM32G0 series and trying to save the records (120bytes each record) into internal mcu flash memory location and when it required will read the read the stored records and do our operations.

Please let us know the logic.

Regards,

Kumar
