Zusammenfassung:A flash memory controller is operative to receive serial commands and command arguments. A flash permissions table identifies each segment of flash memory as READ_ONLY, PRIVATE_R/W or OPEN_R/W. A memory interface is coupled to a flash memory and also the flash permissions table. When a flash memory write operation is received with an associated command argument corresponding to an address indicated as READ_ONLY in the flash permissions table and a DISABLE_WR_REG is true, the write operation is ignored or converted into a non-write command and issued to the flash memory.
