24.5.2.3 Peripheral Access Errors
The following events generate a Peripheral Access Error:
- Protected write – To avoid unexpected writes to a peripheral's registers, each peripheral can be write protected. Only the registers denoted as PAC Write-Protection in the module’s data sheet can be protected. If a peripheral is not write protected, write data accesses are performed as usual. If a peripheral is write protected and if a write access is attempted, data will not be written and the peripheral returns an access error. The corresponding interrupt flag bit in the INTFLAGn register is set.
- Illegal access – Access to an unimplemented register within the module
- Synchronized write error – For write-synchronized registers, an error is reported if the register is written while a synchronization is ongoing.
When any of the INTFLAGn registers bit are set, an interrupt is requested if the PAC interrupt enable bit is set.
