Table 12-45 shows fields that are in the Peripheral Identification Registers.<br />

Field Size Function<br />

Debug<br />

Table 12-45 Fields in the Peripheral Identification Registers<br />

4KB Count 4 bits Indicates the Log2 of the number of 4KB blocks that the processor occupies. The debug<br />

registers occupy a single 4KB block, therefore this field is always 0x0.<br />

JEP106 4+7 bits Identifies the designer of the processor. This field consists of a 4-bit continuation code and a<br />

7-bit identity code. Because the processor is designed by <strong>ARM</strong>, the continuation code is 0x4<br />

and the identity code is 0x3B.<br />

Part<br />

number<br />

12 bits Indicates the part number of the processor. The part number for the processor is 0xC08.<br />

Revision 4 bits Indicates the major and minor revision of the product. The major revision contains<br />

functionality changes and the minor revision contains bug fixes for the product. The revision<br />

number starts at 0x0 and increments by 1 at both major and minor revisions.<br />

RevAnd 4 bits Indicates the manufacturer revision number. This number starts at 0x0 and increments by the<br />

integrated circuit manufacturer on metal fixes. For the processor, the initial value is 0x0 but can<br />

be changed by the manufacturer.<br />

Customer<br />

modified<br />

4 bits For the processor, this value is 0x0.<br />

Table 12-46 shows how the bit values correspond with the Peripheral ID Register 0 functions.<br />

Table 12-47 shows how the bit values correspond with the Peripheral ID Register 1 functions.<br />

Table 12-48 shows how the bit values correspond with the Peripheral ID Register 2 functions.<br />

Table 12-47 Peripheral ID Register 1 bit functions<br />

[7:4] - Indicates bits [3:0] of the JEDEC JEP106 Identity Code. This value is 0xB.<br />

[3:0] - Indicates bits [11:8] of the part number for the processor. This value is 0xC.<br />
