On-Chip Memory Protective Functions
This LSI implements the following protective functions to the on-chip memory by using the on-
chip memory access mode bit (RMD) and the on-chip memory protection enable bit (RP) in the
on-chip memory control register (RAMCR).
• Protective functions for access from the CPU and FPU
When RAMCR.RMD = 0, and the on-chip memory is accessed in user mode, it is determined
to be an address error exception.
When MMUCR.AT = 1 and RAMCR.RP = 1, MMU exception and address error exception are
checked in the on-chip memory area which is a part of area P4 as with the area P0/P3/U0.
The above descriptions are summarized in table 9.6.
