Hello
I have a pic 16f630
I know that every time the pic is programmed, the calibration word erases.
I want to prevent it.
since this is a manufacturing process, I can't check each pic's calibration word. how can I do that?

Thats not exactly true.If you tell the programmer not to programm the last program memory address the osccal value will be still there (if the chip wasn't erased before, I think a few programmers do that before programming)
The other calibration value are the two bandgap bits in the config word but I don't know if you can only program specific config bits.

Wouldn't it be possible to first read the whole pic, extract the calibration constants and then program it?
