Re: [Flashforth-devel] SPI FRAM memory drivers

Somebody did :-P

But I don't think they really care about FRAM advantages with this 
'cross compiling'.

If you ask MRAM manufacturer then MRAM is superior to FRAM. However, if 
you don't need more then 10E14 writing cycles, don't operate above 85 'C 
and 90 ns access is fast enough, then it is just the same:

This MSP430 looks just fine. Only 8 Euro with 128k FRAM and everything 
one microcontroler should have.

One thing is surely missing in instruction set. There is autoincrement 
indirect adressing, but no autodecrement. Somebody didn't like stacks 
:-(

Never heard about this series before. I see they have problem with low 
cost development systems. No PicKit equivalent, but you have to buy 
development board for each model
