Abstract
Method and system for configuring parameters used in flash memory devices. A load instruction and associated address are retrieved from a read-only memory, and the address is used to select a configuration register storing a configuration value. The configuration value is loaded to an associated dedicated register to configure a parameter of the flash memory in a flash memory operation. In another aspect, one or more selected configuration values not stored in a ROM are changed if a tested flash memory operation is not within desired specifications.
