Boot flash upgrade - Why?

Post by Kinne »

Hi,

while looking around I found this document:

Well, there´s an

"Flash Boot Flash: default 8MB upgradeable to 32MB"

mentioned. I´m asking myself why I would ever need such an upgrade?
(I can´t find a part number for ordering such an upgrade, either)

Hm, which kind of new code?

- When I upgrade the firmware, that one is loaded into the "normal" flash rom, which is 64 MB. The bootloader (let´s call it that way) is a lot of smaller and is placed into that bootrom flash.

hello

until this is not advised by a relaese note for a SW upgrade or a specific e-flash by ALU, you don't need to attach importance about this.
