The FCTLx registers are 16-bit password-protected read/write registers. Any read or write access must use word instructions and write accesses must include the write password 0A5h in the upper byte. Any write to any FCTLx register with any value other than 0A5h in the upper byte is a security key violation, which sets the KEYV flag and triggers a PUC system reset. Any read of any FCTLx registers reads 096h in the upper byte.
Any write to FCTL1 during an erase or byte or word write operation is an access violation and sets ACCVIFG. Writing to FCTL1 is allowed in block write mode when WAIT = 1, but writing to FCTL1 in block write mode when WAIT = 0 is an access violation and sets ACCVIFG.
Any write to FCTL2 when the BUSY = 1 is an access violation.
Any FCTLx register may be read when BUSY = 1. A read does not cause an access violation.
