The device supports high levels of security to protect the user firmware from being reverse engineered. The security features a 128-bit password (hardcoded for 16 wait-states), which the user programs into the flash. One code security module (CSM) is used to protect the flash/OTP and the L0/L1 SARAM blocks. The security feature prevents unauthorized users from examining the memory contents via the JTAG port, executing code from external memory or trying to boot-load some undesirable software that would export the secure memory contents. To enable access to the secure blocks, the user must write the correct 128-bit "KEY" value, which matches the value stored in the password locations within the Flash.
NOTE
For code security operation, all addresses between 0x3F7F80 and 0x3F7FF5 cannot be used as program code or data, but must be programmed to 0x0000 when the Code Security Password is programmed. If security is not a concern, addresses 0x3F7F80 through 0x3F7FEF may be used for code or data. Addresses 0x3F7FF0 – 0x3F7FF5 are reserved for data variables and should not contain program code.
The 128-bit password (at 0x3F 7FF8 – 0x3F 7FFF) must not be programmed to zeros. Doing so would permanently lock the device.
