29.1 Description
Chip Identifier (CHIPID) registers are used to recognize the device and its revision. These registers provide the sizes and types of the on-chip memories, as well as the set of embedded peripherals.
Two CHIPID registers are embedded: Chip ID register (CHIPID_CIDR) and Chip ID Extension register (CHIPID_EXID). Both registers contain a hard-wired value that is read-only.
The CHIPID_CIDR register contains the following fields:
- VERSION: Identifies the revision of the silicon
- ID: Product identifier
- EXT: Shows the use of the extension identifier register
The CHIPID_EXID register is device-dependent and reads ‘0’ if CHIPID_CIDR.EXT = 0.
