How are AVR fonts stored in the program memory area?

The compiler can use the keyword const to define constants in flash. For example, keil, ICC, etc. define constants using const unsigned char data=0; then the type of data is a constant stored in flash.

The following definition:

typedef struct typFNT_ASC16    

{

    char Index[1];

    char Msk[16];

};

const struct typFNT_ASC16  ASC_16[] =

{    

"1",0x00,0x00,0x08,0x08,0xFC,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x04,0x04,0x07,0x04,0x04,0x00,

"2",0x00,0x00,0x08,0x04,0x84,0x44,0x38,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x06,0x05,0x04,0x04,0x04,0x00,

"3",0x00,0x00,0x08,0x04,0x44,0x44,0xB8,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x02,0x04,0x04,0x04,0x03,0x00,

"4",0x00,0x00,0x80,0x60,0x18,0xFC,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x01,0x01,0x05,0x07,0x05,0x00,

"5",0x00,0x00,0x7C,0x44,0x44,0x44,0x84,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x02,0x04,0x04,0x04,0x03,0x00,

"6",0x00,0x00,0xF0,0x48,0x44,0x44,0x80,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x03,0x04,0x04,0x04,0x03,0x00,

"7",0x00,0x00,0x0C,0x04,0x84,0x64,0x1C,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x06,0x01,0x00,0x00,0x00,

"8",0x00,0x00,0xB8,0x44,0x44,0x44,0xB8,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x03,0x04,0x04,0x04,0x03,0x00,

"9",0x00,0x00,0x38,0x44,0x44,0x44,0xF8,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x04,0x04,0x02,0x01,0x00,

"0",0x00,0x00,0xF8,0x04,0x04,0x04,0xF8,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x03,0x04,0x04,0x04,0x03,0x00

};

Just define it as const.

In addition, the flash definition of GCC is quite special. For details, please refer to: http://hi.baidu.com/fujianhuangjia/blog/item/52df50373ce1eff61b4cff13.html
