Register 33: EEPROM Debug Mass Erase (EEDBGME), offset 0x080
The EEDBGME register is used to mass erase the EEPROM block back to its default state from
the factory. This register is intended to be used only for debug and test purposes, not in production
environments. The erase takes place in such a way as to be secure. It first erases all data and then
erases the protection mechanism. This register can only be written from supervisor mode by the
core, and can also be written by the Tiva™ C Series debug controller when enabled. A key is used
to avoid accidental use of this mechanism. Note that if a power down takes place while erasing, the
mechanism should be used again to complete the operation. Powering off prematurely does not
expose secured data.
To start a mass erase, the whole register must be written as 0xE37B.0001. The register reads back
as 0x1 until the erase is fully completed at which time it reads as 0x0. The EEDONE register is set
to 0x1 when the erase is started and changes to 0x0 or an error when the mass erase is complete.

Software should not rely on the value of a reserved bit. To provide
compatibility with future products, the value of a reserved bit should be
preserved across a read-modify-write operation.
