Boot ROM and Boot Flash
The Boot ROM and the Boot Flash are key elements in the use of the UCD3138, which provide capability
to examine, and modify memory and registers and download programs into the device. They also offer
security for production programs.
CAUTION
Programming the checksum in the Flash without proper precautions can render
the UCD3138 in state where it is not re-programmable any further. To avoid
program flash lockout, see
