48.7 Register Description
Registers can be 8, 16, or 32 bits wide. Atomic 8-, 16- and 32-bit accesses are supported. In addition, the
8-bit quarters and 16-bit halves of a 32-bit register, and the 8-bit halves of a 16-bit register can be
accessed directly.
Some registers are optionally write-protected by the Peripheral Access Controller (PAC). Optional PAC
write protection is denoted by the "PAC Write-Protection" property in each individual register description.
For details, refer to Register Access Protection.
Some registers are synchronized when read and/or written. Synchronization is denoted by the "Write-
Synchronized" or the "Read-Synchronized" property in each individual register description. For details,
refer to Synchronization.
Some registers are enable-protected, meaning they can only be written when the peripheral is disabled.
Enable-protection is denoted by the "Enable-Protected" property in each individual register description.
