Serial Boot Loader size and Application location

Hi,

I am using TIVA Serial Boot loader for my application

I noticed that TIVA boot loader image size is around 1500 Bytes,  why we are giving 0x2800 as Application start-up address, cant we give 0x0800 (2Kb)?


I tried but it didn't worked,  tried changing Application location in boot loader project as 0x0800 and also in application startup location changed to 0x0800 and vector location too

Any thing I am doing wrong?

My concern is 8Kb Flash memory getting wasted



Regards

Paddy

  • Paddy,

    Please refer to the Bootloader user guide.  Check the configuration section to make sure you adjust the necessary defines in the bl_config.h file.

    Alternatively, if you want to conserve flash memory you can use the default serial boot loader located in ROM.  There is a ROM users guide specific to each part number.  Go here and search ROM for your part number.
