10.5 Protection Against Spurious Write
There are conditions when the user may not want to
write to the data EEPROM memory. To protect against
spurious EEPROM writes, various mechanisms have
been built in. On power-up, WREN is cleared. Also, the
Power-up Timer (64 ms duration) prevents
EEPROM write.
The write initiate sequence and the WREN bit together
help prevent an accidental write during:
• Brown-out
• Power Glitch
• Software Malfunction
10.6 Data EEPROM Operation During
Code-Protect
Data memory can be code-protected by programming
the CPD bit in the Configuration Word register
(Register 12-1) 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 in program memory to
‘0’ will also help prevent data memory code protection
from becoming breached.
