embodied in a Cypress MicroSystems product. Nor does it convey or imply any license under patent or other rights. Cypress MicroSystems does not authorize its products

for use as critical components in life-support systems where a malfunction or failure may reasonably be expected to result in significant injury to the user. The inclusion of

Flash Code Protection

Note the following details of the Flash code protection features on Cypress MicroSystems devices.

Cypress MicroSystems products meet the specifications contained in their particular Cypress MicroSystems Data Sheets. Cypress MicroSystems believes that its family of

products is one of the most secure families of its kind on the market today, regardless of how they are used. There may be methods, unknown to Cypress MicroSystems,

that can breach the code protection features. Any of these methods, to our knowledge, would be dishonest and possibly illegal. Neither Cypress MicroSystems nor any

other semiconductor manufacturer can guarantee the security of their code. Code protection does not mean that we are guaranteeing the product as "unbreakable."

Cypress MicroSystems is willing to work with the customer who is concerned about the integrity of their code. Code protection is constantly evolving. We at Cypress Micro-

Systems are committed to continuously improving the code protection features of our products.
