21A.12 Interrupt Handling when Programming/Erasing Flash Memory
All interrupts, including NMI interrupt is disabled when flash memory is being programmed or
erased (when the P or E bit is set in FLMCR1), and while the boot program is executing in boot

3. If interrupt occurred during boot program execution, it would not be possible to execute the
For these reasons, in on-board programming mode alone there are conditions for disabling
interrupt, as an exception to the general rule. However, this provision does not guarantee normal
erasing and programming or MCU operation. All requests, including NMI interrupt, must
therefore be restricted inside and outside the MCU when programming or erasing flash memory.
NMI interrupt is also disabled in the error-protection state while the P or E bit remains set in
FLMCR1.
Notes: 1. Interrupt requests must be disabled inside and outside the MCU until the programming

• If flash memory is read while being programmed or erased (while the P or E bit is
• If the interrupt entry in the vector table has not been programmed yet, interrupt

be returned).
