Notes

Flash memory must be erased before programming. The erase process turns all the flash bits to '1'. Once the flash is erased, you can program it. The programming turns some of the flash bits from '1' to '0'. Programming cannot turn '0' to '1'. Therefore, to re-program flash, it must first be erased.

Flash can be erased only in chunks of certain size, called pages. Each page may contain one or more rows. The whole row can be programmed at once.

To find out the row size call mcu_write_row_size function.
