4.3 MCU On-Chip RAM Usage by Bootloader

The MCU_MSRAM or OCMC is used by the bootloader SPL/SBL and hence there are some constrains on its usage by the application.

For more information, see this developer note for the OCMC usage. Table 4-1 captures these details.

Table 4-1 Memory Map Considerations for Using MCU On-Chip RAM
Address Size Purpose Persistence
0x41C00000 512 KB Hold SPL/SBL Image Only during SPL/SBL execution. Can be claimed once MCU1_0 app is jumped to.
0x41C80000 8 KB Hold the board configuration passed between SPL/SBL and SCISERVER APP. Can be claimed once MCU R5F app executes Sciclient_init() on MCU R5F.
0x41C82000 502 KB Loadable applications on MCU On-Chip RAM (including SCISERVER APP) Throughout MCU R5F app execution.
0x41CFFB00 ~1.2 KB Common header used in ROM combined image format as well. Can be claimed once MCU R5F app executes Sciclient_init() on MCU R5F.
