The Non-Volatile Memory (NVM) Controller manages all access to the Non-Volatile Memories.
The NVM Controller controls all NVM timing and access privileges, and holds the status of the
NVM.
During normal execution the CPU will execute code from the code section of the Flash memory
(program memory). When entering sleep and no programming operations are active, the Flash
memory is disabled to minimize power consumption.
All NVM are mapped to the data memory. Application software can read the NVM from the
mapped locations of data memory using load instruction with indirect addressing.
The NVM has only one read port and, therefore, the next instruction and the data can not be
read simultaneously. When the application reads data from NVM locations mapped to the data
space, the data is read first before the next instruction is fetched. The CPU execution is here
delayed by one system clock cycle.
Internal programming operations to NVM have been disabled and the NVM therefore appears to
the application software as read-only. Internal write or erase operations of the NVM will not be
successful.
The method used by the external programmer for writing the Non-Volatile Memories is referred
to as external programming. External programming can be done both in-system or in mass pro-
duction. The external programmer can read and program the NVM via the Tiny Programming
Interface (TPI).
In the external programming mode all NVM can be read and programmed, except the signature
and the calibration sections which are read-only.
NVM can be programmed at 5V, only. See
