3.2.10 Security

The 280x devices support high levels of security to protect the user firmware from being reverse
engineered. The security features a 128-bit password (hardcoded for 16 wait-states), which the user
programs into the flash. One code security module (CSM) is used to protect the flash/OTP and the L0/L1
SARAM blocks. The security feature prevents unauthorized users from examining the memory contents
via the JTAG port, executing code from external memory or trying to boot-load some undesirable software
that would export the secure memory contents. To enable access to the secure blocks, the user must
write the correct 128-bit KEY value, which matches the value stored in the password locations within the
Flash.

NOTE

The 128-bit password (at 0x3F 7FF8 – 0x3F 7FFF) must not be programmed to zeros. Doing
so would permanently lock the device.
