6.62 SSD Erase Control Register (0x6BF)
To trigger a hardware erase, bit 0 must be written with a ‘1’, ‘0’, ‘1’ pattern on
consecutive write cycles to this register. This is to protect against ‘accidental’ erase
functions. The value read from this register represents the state of the output, not
the last value written.
6.63 SSD Cache Flush Control Register (0x6C0)
Bit 0 directly controls the Cache Flush pin of the SSD device.
6.64 VPX Control Register (0x6C1)
The NVMRO Override bit can only be set when the SBC347A is the VPX System
Controller (the VPX_SYSCON pin is set low).
6.65 Scratchpad Register (0x6C6)
This generic read/write register is available to software to validate FPGA access.
It returns 0xFF by default.
