17.2.2ReadRegisterMapCommandHost-ROMInteraction
A read register map command reads out data contents for all implemented system and peripheral registers . The host
does not specify a target register but instead should expect register data output in successive order, starting with the
lowest order register in register module 0 . Data is loaded by the ROM to the 8-bit ICDB register and is output one byte
per transfer cycle . Thus, for a 16-bit register, two transfer cycles are necessary . The host initiates each transfer cycle to
shift out the data bytes and finds valid data output tagged with a debug-valid (status = 11b) . At the end of each transfer
cycle, the debug engine clears the TXC flag to signal the ROM service routine that another byte may be loaded to ICDB .
The ROM service routine sets the TXC flag each time after loading data to the ICDB register . This process is repeated
until all registers have been read and output to the host . The host system recognizes the completion of the register read
when the status debug-idle is presented . This indicates that the debug engine is ready for another operation .
This command outputs all peripheral registers in the range M0[00h] to M5[17h], along with a fixed set of system reg-
isters . The following formatting rules apply to the returned data:
• All peripheral registers are output as 16 bits, least significant byte first . If the register is an 8-bit register, the top is
returned as 00h .
• System registers are output as 8 bits or 16 bits, least significant byte first .
• Registers I2CBUF_S, I2CBUF_M, and ADDATA are not read . Their values are returned as 0000h .
• Nonimplemented and reserved peripheral registers in the range M0[00h] to M5[17h] are represented as empty word
values in
. These values should be ignored .
The first byte output by this command is the value 184 (B8h), which represents the number of words output for periph-
eral register . There are a total of 216 words that are output by this command .

OPERATION
0010–1000
Unlock pass-
word
Unlockthepasswordlock.
This command requires 32 follow-on transfer cycles each containing a
byte value to be compared with the program memory password for the purpose of clearing the PWL
bit and granting access to protected debug and loader functions . When this command is received,
the debug engine updates the CMD[3:0] bit to 1000b and performs a jump to ROM code at x8010h .
Data is loaded to the ICDB register when each byte of data is received, beginning with the LSB of
the least significant word first and end with the MSB of the most significant word .
0010–1001
Read register
Readfromaselectedinternalregister.
This command requires two follow-on transfer cycles,
starting with the LSB address and ending with the MSB address . The address is moved to ICDA
register by the debug engine . This information is directly accessible by the ROM code . At the
completion of this command period, the debug engine updates the CMD[3:0] bits to 1001b and
performs a jump to ROM code at x8010h . The ROM debug service routine always assumes a
16-bit register length and returns the requested data LSB first .
Reading a register through the
debug interface returns the value that was in that register before the debugging engine was
invoked . An exception to this rule is the SP register; reading the SP register through the debug
interface actually returns the value (SP+1) .
