2.2 Boot mode and Boot device configurations
The i.MX 8M Plus processor offers multiple boot configurations which are selected by SW4 or from the boot configuration stored
on the internal eFUSE. In addition, the i.MX 8M Plus can download a program image from a USB connection when configured in
serial download mode. The four dedicated BOOT MODE pins are used to select the various boot modes.
