Redwood Shores, 2 april 2008. Dear Doug, No... EEPROM space is limited to 256 bytes. However, you can use the same registers to read the program memory (flash). I'm not sure if the 16F690 allows writing to flash memory, but you can use this mechanism to have wide tables (14 bits, or two characters) which will be slightly easier to read.
