AWR1642BOOST: The address in L3 where the image file is copied to boot up.

Part Number: AWR1642BOOST

Hi Experts, 
AR1xxx Image.xlsxCould you please let me know the address in L3 where the image file is copied to boot up?
I have studied about the format of the image file and the attached file shows the contents for "srrdemo_16xx.bin."

I do not quite understand where the exact address the each image for MSS, BSS and DSS is copied to.
Do they start from address 0x0000 0000 always?

Thank you very much for the info.
Best regards,

Hitoshi

    Hello Hitoshi San,
    MSS application boots up from address 0x00000000 whereas DSS 0x007e0000 (L2-UMAP1).
    Entry points can be decided during compilation of these applications.
    I would recomment you to go over .map files of both cores to get to know what memory spaces code and data are allocated.

    After it is flashed to sFlash on the device in MetImage format Bootloader will read the all the cores images and copy to the addresses specified in the image itself. MetaImage and bin file will have the header containing the address of destination on the device.

    Regards,
