Flash Security Feature

Flash security feature provides possibilities to protect the content of the flash memory
from being read from external.

Abstract

By writing the protection code of "01

H

" to the predefined flash security address of the flash memory,

access to the flash memory is restricted. Once the flash memory is protected, unlock the security function

can only be done by performing the chip erase operation. Otherwise, read/write access of the flash memory

from the external pins is not possible. This function is suitable for applications requiring security of self-

containing data stored in the flash memory.
