41.12 Register Description - 32-Bit Mode

Registers can be 8, 16 or 32 bits wide. Atomic 8-, 16- and 32-bit accesses are supported. In addition, the 8-bit quarters and 16-bit halves of a 32-bit register and the 8-bit halves of a 16-bit register can be accessed directly.

Some registers are optionally write-protected by the PAC. Optional PAC write protection is denoted by the PAC Write-Protection property in each individual register description.

Some registers are synchronized when read and/or written. Synchronization is denoted by the Write-Synchronized or the Read-Synchronized property in each individual register description.

Some registers are enable-protected, meaning they can only be written when the peripheral is disabled. Enable protection is denoted by the Enable-Protected property in each individual register description.

The following are the list of conventions available in the register description:
  • R = Readable bit
  • W = Writable bit
  • U = Unimplemented bit, read as ‘0
  • -n = Value at POR
  • 1 = Bit is set
  • 0 = Bit is cleared
  • x = Bit is unknown
  • HS = Hardware Set
  • HC = Hardware Cleared
