All bits in the FPROT register are readable and writable with restrictions (see
Section 28.3.2.5.1, “Flash
Protection Restrictions”
) except for RNV[6] which is only readable.
During the reset sequence, the FPROT register is loaded from the Flash Configuration Field at global
address 0x7F_FF0D. To change the Flash protection that will be loaded during the reset sequence, the
upper sector of the Flash memory must be unprotected, then the Flash Protect/Security byte located as
described in
Table 28-1
must be reprogrammed.
Tryingto alterdata inany protectedareain the Flashmemory willresultin a protectionviolationerror and
the PVIOL flag will be set in the FSTAT register. The mass erase of a Flash block is not possible if any of
the Flash sectors contained in the Flash block are protected.

Description

FPOPEN
Flash Protection Open
— The FPOPEN bit determines the protection function for program or erase as shown
in
Table 28-10
.
0 The FPHDIS and FPLDIS bits define unprotected address ranges as specified by the corresponding
FPHS[1:0] and FPLS[1:0] bits. For an MCU without an EEPROM module, the FPOPEN clear state allows the
main part of the Flash block to be protected while a small address range can remain unprotected for EEPROM
emulation.
1 The FPHDIS and FPLDIS bits enable protection for the address range specified by the corresponding
FPHS[1:0] and FPLS[1:0] bits.
6
RNV6
Reserved Nonvolatile Bit
— The RNV[6] bit should remain in the erased state for future enhancements.
5
FPHDIS
Flash Protection Higher Address Range Disable
— The FPHDIS bit determines whether there is a
protected/unprotected area in a specific region of the Flash memory ending with global address 0x7F_FFFF.
0 Protection/Unprotection enabled.
1 Protection/Unprotection disabled.
4:3
FPHS[1:0]
Flash Protection Higher Address Size
— The FPHS[1:0] bits determine the size of the protected/unprotected
area as shown in
Table 28-11
. The FPHS[1:0] bits can only be written to while the FPHDIS bit is set.
2
FPLDIS
Flash Protection Lower Address Range Disable
— The FPLDIS bit determines whether there is a
protected/unprotected area in a specific region of the Flash memory beginning with global address 0x7F_8000.
0 Protection/Unprotection enabled.
1 Protection/Unprotection disabled.
1:0
FPLS[1:0]
Flash Protection Lower Address Size
— The FPLS[1:0] bits determine the size of the protected/unprotected
area as shown in
Table 28-12
. The FPLS[1:0] bits can only be written to while the FPLDIS bit is set.
