Chapter 6: Boot and Configuration
Execute-in-Place Option
For the execute-in-place option, the BootROM uses the linear addressing feature of the Quad-SPI
controller for non-secure boot modes. In this case, the initial FSBL/User code must fit inside the first
16 MB of memory for a single device and 32 MB of memory for a x8 dual Quad-SPI device system.
Configuration Register Settings
The BootROM sets qspi.LQSPI_CFG to use these settings:
•CLK_POL:
0, CLK_PH: 0
• BAUD_RATE_DIV: 1 (by 4)
•INST_CODE is set as:
°
x1 mode = 0x03, x2 mode =0x3B, x4 mode = 0x6B
• DUMMY_BYTE is set as:
°
x1 mode= 0, x2 and x4 mode = 1
• SEP_BUS and TWO_MEM are set if a dual x4 configuration is used
Boot Time Optimizations
The Quad-SPI boot process can be sped up by modifying the operating mode before the process to
read the flash contents into OCM begins. You program the BootROM Header Register Initialization
parameters to improve boot times or select modes. The Register Initialization parameters are
explained at the end of section 6.3.2 BootROM Header.
The optimized values for the registers in the following examples are obtained from vendor data
sheets. The following examples show the settings for the Quad-SPI interface. These are examples;
they might not be optimized for a specific flash device or board design. The settings assume a 33
MHz PS_CLK. If a faster clock is used, then a larger divider must be considered.
The optimizations for the MIO multiplexer, clock controls and other configurations are shown in
Table 6-10. If the width or security combination is not listed for a register, then the post BootROM
value is used.
