Boot-Mode configuration 

The TQMa6ULxL can boot from different media: 

 

eMMC (on TQMa6ULxL) 

 

QSPI NOR flash 

 

SD card 

 
The settings of DIP switches S13 and S16 determine, which device is selected to boot from.

Block diagram Boot Mode 

 
 
 
 

Attention: 

Flickering display 

 

During the boot process, the LCD_DATA signals are not separated from the display. It may therefore 
be necessary to deactivate the display at system start-up. This can be implemented by appropriate 
software adaptation via the Data Enable Input.
