To execute Page Erase, set up the address in the Z-pointer, write “X0000011” to SPMCR and
execute SPM within four clock cycles after writing SPMCR. The data in R1 and R0 is ignored.
The page address must be written to PCPAGE in the Z-register. Other bits in the Z-pointer must
be written zero during this operation.

To write an instruction word, set up the address in the Z-pointer and data in R1:R0, write
“00000001” to SPMCR and execute SPM within four clock cycles after writing SPMCR. The con-
tent of PCWORD in the Z-register is used to address the data in the temporary buffer. The
temporary buffer will auto-erase after a page write operation or by writing the RWWSRE bit in
SPMCR. It is also erased after a system reset. Note that it is not possible to write more than one
time to each address without erasing the temporary buffer.
Note:
To execute Page Write, set up the address in the Z-pointer, write “X0000101” to SPMCR and
execute SPM within four clock cycles after writing SPMCR. The data in R1 and R0 is ignored.
The page address must be written to PCPAGE. Other bits in the Z-pointer must be written to
zero during this operation.

If the SPM interrupt is enabled, the SPM interrupt will generate a constant interrupt when the
SPMEN bit in SPMCR is cleared. This means that the interrupt can be used instead of polling
the SPMCR Register in software. When using the SPM interrupt, the Interrupt Vectors should be
moved to the BLS section to avoid that an interrupt is accessing the RWW section when it is
blocked for reading. How to move the interrupts is described in
Special care must be taken if the user allows the Boot Loader section to be updated by leaving
Boot Lock bit11 unprogrammed. An accidental write to the Boot Loader itself can corrupt the
entire Boot Loader, and further software updates might be impossible. If it is not necessary to
change the Boot Loader software itself, it is recommended to program the Boot Lock bit11 to
protect the Boot Loader software from any internal software changes.
During Self-Programming (either Page Erase or Page Write), the RWW section is always
blocked for reading. The user software itself must prevent that this section is addressed during
the Self-Programming operation. The RWWSB in the SPMCR will be set as long as the RWW
section is busy. During self-programming the Interrupt Vector table should be moved to the BLS
as described in
the RWW section after the programming is completed, the user software must clear the
RWWSB by writing the RWWSRE. See
page 253
To set the Boot Loader Lock bits, write the desired data to R0, write “X0001001” to SPMCR and
execute SPM within four clock cycles after writing SPMCR. The only accessible Lock bits are the
Boot Lock bits that may prevent the Application and Boot Loader section from any software
update by the MCU.
Page Erase to the RWW section: The NRWW section can be read during the page erase.
Page Erase to the NRWW section: The CPU is halted during the operation.
Page Write to the RWW section: The NRWW section can be read during the Page Write.
Page Write to the NRWW section: The CPU is halted during the operation.
If the EEPROM is written in the middle of an SPM Page Load operation, all data loaded will be
lost.
