Bits 11:8 – BOOTPROT[3:0] Boot Loader Protection Size
This bitfield is loaded from the USER page during the device startup.
Defines the size of the BOOTPROT region which is protected against write or erase or Chip-Erase
operations. This size is given by the following formula (15-BOOTPROT)*8KB.
Bit 5 – BPDIS Boot Loader Protection Disable
0: Boot loader protection is not discarded.
1: Boot loader protection against modify operations is discarded until CBPDIS is issued or next start-up
sequence except for Chip-Erase.
Bit 4 – AFIRST BANKA First
0: Start address of bank B is mapped at 0x0000_0000.
1: Start address of bank A is mapped at 0x0000_0000.
Bit 3 – SUSP NVM Write Or Erase Operation Is Suspended
0: The NVM controller is not in suspended state.
1: The NVM controller is in suspended state.
Bit 2 – LOAD NVM Page Buffer Active Loading
This bit indicates that the NVM page buffer has been loaded with one or more words. Immediately after
an NVM load has been performed, this flag is set, and it remains set until a Write Page (WP), Write Quad
Word (WQW) or a page buffer clear (PBCLR) command is given.
Bit 1 – PRM Power Reduction Mode
This bit indicates the current NVM power reduction state. The NVM block can be set in power reduction
mode in two ways: through the command interface or automatically when entering sleep with
CTRLA.PRM set accordingly. PRM can be cleared in three ways: through AHB access to the NVM block,
through the command interface (SPRM and CPRM) or when exiting sleep with CTRLA.PRM set
accordingly.
0: NVM is not in power reduction mode
1: NVM is in power reduction mode.
