getMaxPage (SPIFlash)

Signatures

• uint32_t SPIFlash::getMaxPage(void)

What It Is For

Return maximum page index/count based on detected flash capacity and configured page size.

Parameters

• No parameters.

Behavior Details

Useful for page-based diagnostics and page iteration logic.

Return Semantics

Returns max page value used by library page calculations.

Failure Behavior

Using stale/hardcoded page limits can cause out-of-range accesses.

Common Mistakes

• Confusing page count with byte capacity.
• Using page math from another chip without recalculating.
• Assuming page operations are equivalent to erase boundaries.

Choosing Between Similar APIs

• Use getMaxPage() for page-oriented diagnostics/tooling.
• Use raw byte addresses for most application storage logic.
• Do not substitute page count for erase-block planning.

Example

Serial.print("Max pages: ");
Serial.println(flash.getMaxPage());
