One Time Programmable (OTP) section

The ST8500 device embeds an OTP area that stores device sensitive information, security

control bits and additional user specific bytes. The OTP section has two different HW

protection methods, ECC or HW redundancy, as indicated in Table 4.

The ECC calculation unit improves robustness of data storage. This ECC block encodes

and decodes each 32-bits words in programming and reading operations. The user must

program all the ECC protected words in one shot, no modification is possible afterward.

The HW redundancy is a more flexible protection mechanism but limits the size of each

word to 16-bits. The user can write words in multiple shots but respecting this rule: the word

value can be changed only making '0's becoming '1's (in no case single bits can be written

back at 0).
