General-purpose NVM Bits
Security Bit
General-purpose NVM bits do not interfere with the embedded Flash memory plane. (Does not
apply to EFC1 on the AT91SAM7X512.) These general-purpose bits are dedicated to protect
other parts of the product. They can be set (activated) or cleared individually. Refer to the prod-
uct definition section for the general-purpose NVM bit action.
The activation sequence is:
Two errors can be detected in the MC_FSR register after a programming sequence:
It is possible to deactivate a general-purpose NVM bit set previously. The clear sequence is:
Two errors can be detected in the MC_FSR register after a programming sequence:
The Clear General-purpose Bit command programs the general-purpose NVM bit to 1; the corre-
sponding bit GPNVM0 to GPNVMx in MC_FSR reads 0. The Set General-purpose Bit command
programs the general-purpose NVM bit to 0; the corresponding bit GPNVMx in MC_FSR reads
1.
Note:
The goal of the security bit is to prevent external access to the internal bus system. (Does not
apply to EFC1 on the AT91SAM7X512.) JTAG, Fast Flash Programming and Flash Serial Test
Interface features are disabled. Once set, this bit can be reset only by an external hardware
ERASE request to the chip. Refer to the product definition section for the pin name that controls
the ERASE. In this case, the full memory plane is erased and all lock and general-purpose NVM
bits are cleared. The security bit in the MC_FSR is cleared only after these operations. The acti-
vation sequence is:
• Start the Set General Purpose Bit command (SGPB) by writing the Flash Command Register
• When the bit is set, the bit FRDY in the Flash Programming Status Register (MC_FSR) rises.
