Subject: [PIC]: FAT in a CompactFlash with a 16F877


Hello to all!

I am a beginner with the PIC microcontroller and I want to use a Compact
Flash with FAT filesystem in an embedded system using a PIC16F877. I have to
write some files to this card and I must be able to read and format this
same card under Windows 9x-2k.
 Has someone already experiment this (or something similar) ?

So I am looking for description (and why not algorithms) about writing files
in a FAT fs. I'd prefer use it in Common Memory Mode, in order to use only 8
data lines.

Note that I have already seen a part of the archives, with its topics about
IDE mode interfacing, and the 'PIC a compact Flash' article about
interfacing a Compact Flash.

Thanks.

David Levard
