Embedded Flash memory interface RM0390
78/1328 RM0390 Rev 4
If an erase operation is requested, the WRPERR bit is set when:
• Mass, bank, sector erase are configured (MER and SER = 1)
• A sector erase is requested and the Sector Number SNB field is not valid
• A mass erase is requested while at least one of the user sector is write protected by
option bit (MER = 1 and nWRPi = 0 with 0 i 117 bits in the FLASH_OPTCRx register
• A sector erase is requested on a write protected sector. (SER = 1, SNB = i and
nWRPi = 0 with 0 i 117 bits in the FLASH_OPTCRx register)
• The Flash memory is readout protected and an intrusion is detected.
If a program operation is requested, the WRPERR bit is set when:
• A write operation is performed on system memory or on the reserved part of the user
specific sector.
• A write operation is performed to the user configuration sector
• A write operation is performed on a sector write protected by option bit.
• A write operation is requested on an OTP area which is already locked
• The Flash memory is read protected and an intrusion is detected.
3.6.5 Proprietary code readout protection (PCROP)
Flash memory user sectors (0 to 7) can be protected against D-bus read accesses by using
the proprietary readout protection (PCROP).
The PCROP protection is selected as follows, through the SPRMOD option bit in the
FLASH_CR register:
• SPRMOD = 0: nWRPi control the write protection of respective user sectors
• SPRMOD = 1: nWRPi control the read and write protection (PCROP) of respective
user sectors.
When a sector is readout protected (PCROP mode activated), it can only be accessed for
code fetch through ICODE Bus on Flash interface:
• Any read access performed through the D-bus triggers a RDERR flag error.
• Any program/erase operation on a PCROPed sector triggers a WRPERR flag error.
