System bootEdit

The boot process begins at Power On Reset (POR) where the hardware reset logic forces the ARM core to begin execution starting from the on-chip boot ROM. The boot ROM:

  • determines whether the boot is secure or non-secure
  • performs some initialization of the system and clean-ups
  • reads the mode pins to determine the primary boot device
  • once it is satisfied, it executes the boot code

Boot optionsEdit

The default primary boot device is internally set by pull-up or pull-down resistors according to the Boot Mode fileld of the ordering code.

The BOOT_MODEx signals are also present on the SoM connector to override the primary boot device.

The following table shows all the available options:

 

Use 1k resistors either to VDD or DGND to drive the BOOT_MODEx signals.
