Some additional information:
- SAMD21G18A has 256 KByte FLASH
- PAGE size is 64 Byte
- One ROW has 4 pages.
- Before one PAGE can be written, whole ROW that contains this PAGE must be erased.
=> the minimum writeble amount of data is 256 bytes (1 ROW/4 PAGES).
Example: you will write some bytes to page 1. Pages 0,2 and 3 are on the same ROW. Pages 0,2 and 3 contains already some date.
- So you have to read the data of this 3 pages to an array
- add data of page 1 to this array
- erase whole row (=pages 0,1,2,3)
- and then write whole row(=pages 0,1,2,3)
