Bits | Name | Function |
---|---|---|
[31:8] | Reserved. | |
[7:0] | REGION | Indicates the MPU region referenced by the MPU_RBAR and MPU_RASR registers. The MPU supports 8 memory regions, so the permitted values of this field are 0-7. |
Normally, you write the required region number to this register before accessing the MPU_RBAR or MPU_RASR. However you can change the region number by writing to the MPU_RBAR with the VALID bit set to 1, see 2.7.4.4 MPU Region Base Address Register. This write updates the value of the REGION field.
