Bit 18 – CACHEDIS Cache Disable

This bit is used to disable the cache.

ValueDescription
0 The cache is enabled
1 The cache is disabled

Bits 17:16 – READMODE[1:0] NVMCTRL Read Mode

ValueNameDescription
0x0 NO_MISS_PENALTY The NVM Controller (cache system) does not insert wait states on a cache miss. Gives the best system performance.
0x1 LOW_POWER Reduces power consumption of the cache system, but inserts a wait state each time there is a cache miss. This mode may not be relevant if CPU performance is required, as the application will be stalled and may lead to increased run time.
0x2 DETERMINISTIC The cache system ensures that a cache hit or miss takes the same amount of time, determined by the number of programmed Flash wait states. This mode can be used for real-time applications that require deterministic execution timings.
0x3 Reserved

Bit 11 – FWUP Fast Wake-Up Enable

This bit is used to enable the fast wake-up mode.

ValueDescription
0 Fast wake-up is turned off
1 Fast wake-up is turned on

Bits 9:8 – SLEEPPRM[1:0] Power Reduction Mode during Sleep

Indicates the Power Reduction Mode during sleep.
ValueNameDescription
0x0 WAKEUPACCESS NVM block enters low-power mode when entering sleep.
 NVM block exits low-power mode upon first access.
0x1 WAKEUPINSTANT NVM block enters low-power mode when entering sleep.
 NVM block exits low-power mode when exiting sleep.
0x2 Reserved
0x3 DISABLED Auto power reduction disabled.

Bits 4:1 – RWS[3:0] NVM Read Wait States

These bits control the number of wait states for a read operation. '0' indicates zero wait states, '1' indicates one wait state, etc., up to 15 wait states.

This register is initialized to 0 wait states. Software can change this value based on the NVM access time and system frequency.
