Writing a bootloader for Arm Cortex-A35/A5X microprocessors
By Aaron Bauch, Senior Field Application Engineer, IAR Systems Design specifications require the ability to update a device’s firmware in the field dynamically. This is done commonly via a bootloader. Designing a bootloader, however, is challenging as it must meet various requirements. For example, the mechanism for getting the new application into the MPU is […]
Server-grade extended ATX motherboard carries 3rd-Gen Xeon MPUs for AI work
