8.7 DATA EEPROM OPERATION

DURING CODE-PROTECT

Data memory can be code-protected by programming

the CPD bit to ‘0’.

When the data memory is code-protected, the CPU is

able to read and write data to the data EEPROM. It is

recommended to code-protect the program memory

when code protecting data memory. This prevents

anyone from programming zeroes over the existing

code (which will execute as NOPs) to reach an added

routine, programmed in unused program memory,

which outputs the contents of data memory.

Programming unused locations to ‘0’ will also help

prevent data memory code protection from becoming

breached.
