Question 1:
I have used external eeproms sinse i started using PIC:s about a year ago. I have always thought that there should be a 10ms delay between each read/write to the eeprom.
But now when i am thinking of it, is it really nessecary when reading? I can remember i have seen a explanation to the delay that says that there must be a delay for the data to be written to EEPROM.
The read delay is a problem when i am displaying a bitmap on my GLCD when reading from EEPROM. The drawing procedure takes toooooooo long time because of the read delay.
I have also thought of put the bitmap data in the PIC:s program memmory. Is that difficult? I am using PicBasic Plus. I suppose reading from program memmory would be ways faster than from a EEPROM, right?
