Abstract
A bootloader is provided on the TMS320VC5421 for loading user code to on-chip memory at reset. The bootloader code is contained within the 2K ROM in each of the two DSP subsystems in ’5421. Support is provided in ROM code for three different modes of boot load operation: parallel 8-bit, parallel 16-bit, and serial EEPROM. In addition, HPI boot mode is supported with the ROM disabled. Unless otherwise noted, the information contained in this document should be considered ADVANCE INFORMATION on new products in the sampling or pre-production phase of development. Information and specifications in this document are subject to change without notice. Important Notice Regarding Bootloader Program Contents: Texas Instruments may periodically update the bootloader code supplied in the ROM to correct known problems, provide additional features, or improve functionality. These changes may be made without notice, as needed. Although changes to the ROM code will preserve functional compatibility with prior versions, the locations of functions within the code
