27.5.8 Register Access Protection

All registers with write access can be write-protected optionally by the Peripheral Access Controller (PAC), except the following registers:

  • Control B register (CTRLB)
  • Interrupt Flag Status and Clear register (INTFLAG)
  • Status register (STATUS)

Optional write protection by the Peripheral Access Controller (PAC) is denoted by the "PAC Write Protection" property in each individual register description.

Write-protection does not apply to accesses through an external debugger.
