POM (Parameter Overlay Module) and Main Program Images

Hi,

I am wondering if POM can be used to redirect accesses on one flash sector to other flash sector area?

The use case that I am trying to work out being, if I have a program image that is physically stored to a flash address that is not necessarily the linked address of the program. Can I then setup POM to map linked address of the program to the physical address of the program and execute the program. i.e

Program A is linked at address 0x0000_8000 to 0x0000_FFFF

but stored on flash at 0x0001_0000 to 0x0001_7FFF

can I then use POM to map 0x0000_8000 to 0x0000_FFFF <=> 0x0001_0000 to 0x0001_7FFF

and execute the program @ 0x0000_8000 effectively executing from 0x0001_0000  (as per my understanding of the module any access on the former address is going to be overlayed by POM)

Also, if it would work then would there be any performance related penalties for using the overlay vs having it directly being accessed and executed from real flash?

Thanks,
