64 KByte Flash Module (S12FTMRG64K512V1)
17.4.9
If a Flash command is active (CCIF = 0) when the MCU requests stop mode, the current Flash operation
will be completed before the MCU is allowed to enter stop mode.
17.5
The Flash module provides security information to the MCU. The Flash security state is defined by the
SEC bits of the FSEC register (see
register using data read from the security byte of the Flash configuration field at global address 0x3_FF0F.
The security state out of reset can be permanently changed by programming the security byte assuming
that the MCU is starting from a mode where the necessary P-Flash erase and program commands are
available and that the upper region of the P-Flash is unprotected. If the Flash security byte is successfully
programmed, its new value will take affect after the next MCU reset.
The following subsections describe these security-related subjects:
17.5.1
The MCU may be unsecured by using the backdoor key access feature which requires knowledge of the
contents of the backdoor keys (four 16-bit words programmed at addresses 0x3_FF00-0x3_FF07). If the
KEYEN[1:0] bits are in the enabled state (see
command (see
keys stored in the Flash memory via the Memory Controller. If the keys presented in the Verify Backdoor
Access Key command match the backdoor keys stored in the Flash memory, the SEC bits in the FSEC
register (see
not permitted as backdoor keys. While the Verify Backdoor Access Key command is active, P-Flash
memory and EEPROM memory will not be available for read access and will return invalid data.
The user code stored in the P-Flash memory must have a method of receiving the backdoor keys from an
external stimulus. This external stimulus would typically be through one of the on-chip serial ports.
If the KEYEN[1:0] bits are in the enabled state (see
