Boot Chip-Select Operation
Boot chip-select operation allows address decoding for a boot ROM before system initialization. The
LCS0 signal is the boot chip select output; its operation differs from the other external chip select outputs
after a system reset. When the core begins accessing memory after system reset, LCS0 is asserted for every
EMC access until BR0 or OR0 is reconfigured.
The boot chip select also provides a programmable port size (byte boot or word boot), which is configured
by boot mode pins during reset. The boot chip-select does not provide write protection. LCS0 operates this
way until the first write to OR0, and it can be used as any other chip-select register after the preferred
address range is loaded into BR0.
describes the initial values of the boot bank in the memory
controller. Note that if you want to use LCS1-7, BR0[V] should be written with 0 to disable the memory
bank 0.
