 I want to access the complete 256KB of RAM for verification of RAM using a custom protocol. 
 So my requirement is that when the verification starts, nobody should modify</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Wed, 19 Jun 2019 05:33:45 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/48650/accessing-entire-256kb-ram-with-soft-device-enabled" /><item><title>RE: Accessing entire 256KB RAM with soft-device enabled.</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/193526?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Wed, 19 Jun 2019 05:33:45 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:a3925774-622c-401a-bd57-0873100785e8</guid><dc:creator>RK</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;OK it&amp;#39;s correct to say that you can&amp;#39;t access the Softdevice RAM, however when it&amp;#39;s disabled, the Softdevice RAM requirement is only 8 bytes so the OP should be able to test everything from 0x20000008 upwards, just not the first 8 bytes of RAM. That&amp;#39;s per the S140 spec I just checked but I believe all the softdevice specs I&amp;#39;ve ever read say the same thing, disabled RAM requirements are just 8 bytes.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Accessing entire 256KB RAM with soft-device enabled.</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/193523?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Wed, 19 Jun 2019 04:26:22 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:70433b99-a8da-45aa-8204-07d94ab62506</guid><dc:creator>AGJ</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Ok, thanks.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Accessing entire 256KB RAM with soft-device enabled.</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/193167?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 17 Jun 2019 12:09:43 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:37e78256-a89d-41bf-8c84-4a770b093b99</guid><dc:creator>Simonr</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Correct, the SoftDevice RAM won&amp;#39;t be readable as long as it is present in the RAM.
