ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a protocol cycle during which a memory address and all the data bytes to be written are transmitted, and the writing process is carried out only once for all the transmitted data bytes, by writing a first byte in the memory sector corresponding to a first address generated by resetting to zero the 2 least significant bits of the transmitted address and all the other transmitted bytes in successive addresses. The method includes writing a certain number N of data bytes, in consecutive memory addresses in a memory array of a memory device, and includes unprotecting the memory sectors in which data are to be written, communicating the programming command to the memory device, communicating to the memory device the bits to be stored and specifying a relative memory address of a sector to write in, and writing the data bits in the memory.
