Protected memory is always 1 page long (page size is 1024 bytes), and you can specify only 4 protected regions. If the CPU tries to access the protected region in a way that is not allowed, an external interrupt will be raised. Because there are only 4 protected regions, there are a total of 4 possible interrupts which are called MEM_0, MEM_1, MEM_2 and MEM_3.

Protected memory is always 1 page long (page size is 1024 bytes), and you can specify only 4 protected regions. If the CPU tries to access the protected region in a way that is not allowed, an external interrupt will be raised. Because there are only 4 protected regions, there are a total of 4 possible interrupts which are called MEM_0, MEM_1, MEM_2 and MEM_3.
