Abstract:
Embodiments are provided for protecting boot block space in a memory device. Such a memory device may include a memory array having a protected portion and a serial interface controller. The memory device may have a register that enables or disables access to the portion when data indicating whether to enable or disable access to the portion is written into the register via a serial data in (SI) input.
