21.1.3 Bit Write Protect

A Bit Write Protect bit provides write protection for each individual bit within a single register as shown in the following figure. Bit Write Protect bits follow the same rules as Register Write Protect bits described in 21.1.1 Register Write Protect, but are instead applied to each individual bit within the register. There is a Bit Write Protect bit allocated for each bit within the register.
