Software Protection

Software protection can be implemented by setting the SWE bit in FLMCR1 and erase block
registers 1 and 2 (EBR1, EBR2). When software protection is in effect, setting the P1 or E1 bit
in flash memory control register 1 (FLMCR1), or setting the P2 or E2 bit in flash memory
control register 2 (FLMCR2) does not cause a transition to program mode or erase mode. (See
table 8.8.)
