Boot from different storage devices[edit | edit source]

ORCA and MITO 8M Mini SOMs are designed to support different bootable storage devices.

The i.MX8M Plus and i.MX8M Mini/Nano SoCs support different boot modes. DAVE Embedded Systems SOM designs simplify and provide the following boot mode options:

The usage of NOR flash memories, NAND devices and eMMC devices can be chosen with regard to the reliability. This is especially true when the NAND flash is used as the boot device. Several techniques such as wear leveling and bad block management have to be implemented to achieve an acceptable reliability.

Please check the ORCA or MITO 8M Mini P/N composition page for the storage devices available on the SOMs or contact our technical support for more information.
