We called that overlay programming. You planned your design to allow for the orderly reuse of memory. One could have a program that used 5x the memory you had available. It wasn't like virtual memory where the hardware made all of that transparent, but it accomplished the same basic job except you were in control of when and what overlays were called into memory. The main or parent program was always in memory.

I am guessing you were stuck in C?
I would have expected you to go with one of your generated state machines if you could use C++.

No, but generated code wouldn't have really helped me here. This flow is too irregular.

I was tracking down the weirdest bug in a circuit I'm building. It was waking up my little MCU seemingly randomly and I couldn't figure it out. It was supposed to wake on button press.
After awhile I realized it would wake up every time I moved, which was weird.
I forgot a pulldown resistor on my button's output line! I was changing the ambient electrical properties of the environment around the wire whenever I moved, which was kind of cool.
It's due to the fact that there's a touch sensor attached to the MCU's input pin I was using for the button. That's fine, but you need a pulldown resistor!
I guess I could use this "bug" to make a digital theramin.

Woooo-oooo-wah!
Do you recognize that tune? I don't. Theremins must be one of the hardest musical instruments to play.
- I would love to change the world, but they wonβt give me the source code.

The theme music from the original The Day The Earth Stood Still, composed by John Herrmann, included a theremin.

Cool!
Only on CP would this have reported in such an interesting way.

Can this be extended to track suspicious movements in the neighbourhood? In essence a new type of security device.
