9.3.2.5 Write Access after Reset

After a Power-on Reset (POR), the NVMCTRL rejects any write attempts to the NVM for a certain time. During this period, the Flash Busy (FBUSY) and the EEPROM Busy (EBUSY) bits in the STATUS register will read ‘1’. EEBUSY and FBUSY must read ‘0’ before the page buffer can be filled, or NVM commands can be issued.

This time-out period is disabled either by writing the Time-Out Disable bit (TOUTDIS) in the System Configuration 0 Fuse (FUSE.SYSCFG0) to ‘0’ or by configuring the RSTPINCFG bit field in FUSE.SYSCFG0 to UPDI.
