4.5 Memory Protection
There are two different types of memory protec-
tion: Read Out Protection and Write/Erase Protec-
tion which can be applied individually.
4.5.1 Read out Protection
Readout protection, when selected provides a pro-
tection against program memory content extrac-
tion and against write access to Flash memory.
Even if no protection can be considered as totally
unbreakable, the feature provides a very high level
of protection for a general purpose microcontroller.
Both program and data E
In flash devices, this protection is removed by re-
programming the option. In this case, both pro-
gram and data E
erased and the device can be reprogrammed.
Read-out protection selection depends on the de-
vice type:
– In Flash devices it is enabled and removed
– In ROM devices it is enabled by mask option
4.5.2 Flash Write/Erase Protection
Write/erase protection, when set, makes it impos-
sible to both overwrite and erase program memo-
ry. It does not apply to E

Reset Value: 000 0000 (00h)
1st RASS Key: 0101 0110 (56h)
2nd RASS Key: 1010 1110 (AEh)
Note: This register is reserved for programming
using ICP, IAP or other programming methods. It
controls the XFlash programming and erasing op-
erations.
When an EPB or another programming tool is
used (in socket or ICP mode), the RASS keys are
sent automatically.
