Thank for the answer, Dave, this is the kind of info I'm looking for. BUT! I don't think it is correct: 0x8000 is 32k: the firmware would start at the end of memory!?! 0xbfff is 48k: unless the 16k of the rom are counted of course... Then this mean (...)

(...) I believe it has a 16K ROM and 32K SRAM. Within the 32K, 16K is occupied by the 'firmware' downloaded to the RCX. About 6K is reserved for bytecode program space and the datalog. Presumably the rest is working memory for the firmware (stack, (...) (26 years ago, 10-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) If I remember correctly the RCX has a 16kROM for the basic routines. It has 32k RAM for firmware and programs. The scout has 32K ROM and only 1K RAM (400bytes for your program) Dean (26 years ago, 9-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

| | How much memory finally?

I'm trying to figure out how much memory the RCX has. Many sources claims that it has - 16k rom - 16k ram for the firmware - 6k reserved for our own programs Does this mean the RCX has 22k of RAM memory? What an odd number... Also, when I perform (...)
