7.4.12 EEHIDE0 Register (Offset = 0x50) [reset = 0x0]
EEPROM Block Hide 0 (EEHIDE0)
The EEHIDE0 register is used to hide one or more blocks other than EEPROM block 0. Bits 1 through 31
of this register correspond to EEPROM blocks 1 through 31. Once hidden, the block is not accessible until
the next reset. This model allows initialization code to have access to data which is not visible to the rest
of the application. This register also provides for additional security in that there is no password to search
for in the code or data.

Hide Block 0
0x0 = The corresponding block is not hidden.
0x1 = The block number that corresponds to the bit number is
hidden. A hidden block cannot be accessed, and the OFFSET value
in the EEBLOCK register cannot be set to that block number. If an
attempt is made to configure the OFFSET field to a hidden block, the
EEBLOCK register is cleared.Any attempt to clear a bit in this
register that is set is ignored.
