5.3.4 Reset Protection Register (RPR)
The RPR enables or disables writing to the reset control register (RCR). The RPR protects
unintended software reset requests due to writes to the reset control register (RCR). To enable the
RPR, write the value 0x52535445 (“RSTE” in ASCII) to the RPR. When enabled, the control
register enable bit in the reset control enable register (RCER[CRE]) is set. Reading the RPR
always returns all zeros. To disable writes to the RCR, write a 1 to the RCER[CRE] bit. Table
5-12 defines the bit fields of RPR.

Reset Control Protection Word
Protects unintended software reset request caused by writes to the RCR. Write the value
0x52535445 (“RSTE” in ASCII) to the RCPW to enable the RCR. When the RCR is enabled, the
RCER[CRE] bit is set. Reading the RPR always returns all zeros. To disable write to the RCR,
write a 1 to RCER[CRE].
