Solved: STM32G0 Readout Protection questions - STMicroelectronics Community

1. If in RDP Level 1, can the SRAM be read?

2. If starting in RDP Level 1 and transitioning to RDP Level 0, is the SRAM erased?

3. Can the contents of SRAM be readout after the transition from RDP Level 1 to RDP Level 0?

Thanks.

1) No, RDP level 1 prevents SRAM from being read. From the reference manual:

2) Yes.

3) Yes, but they've been erased.

(Assuming you mean "read" as "read by the debugger" as the program itself can use SRAM just fine regardless of RDP level.)
