30. Memory Programming
30.1 Program And Data Memory Lock Bits
The ATmega640/1280/1281/2560/2561 provides six Lock bits which can be left unprogrammed (“1”) or can be pro-
grammed (“0”) to obtain the additional features listed in Table 30-2. The Lock bits can only be erased to “1” with the
Chip Erase command.
Note: 1. “1” means unprogrammed, “0” means programmed

111No restrictions for SPM or (E)LPM accessing the Application section.
2 1 0 SPM is not allowed to write to the Application section.
300
SPM is not allowed to write to the Application section, and (E)LPM executing from the
Boot Loader section is not allowed to read from the Application section. If Interrupt
Vectors are placed in the Boot Loader section, interrupts are disabled while executing
from the Application section.
