To clear the AES key manually, disconnect the Vbatt pins and power-cycle the board.
Note: Pressing or pulsing the PROG pin when the
board/FPGA is powered up does not clear the BBR
register.
Alternatively, you can clear the AES key in Vivado IDE by right-clicking the FPGA device in the Hardware window, selecting Clear BBR Key…
Figure 1. Clearing the AES Key for 7 Series Devices
When the Clear BBR Key dialog box appears, click OK to clear the key from the device.

Important: When
verify_hw_devices is performed on the BBR key, an error is displayed. To verify
the BBR key, the user should test this by programming the FPGA with a bitstream that has the
key. Vivado does not support any post BBR program verify option to verify
the programmed BBR key.
