Abstract
The present invention provides a method and apparatus for allowing developers to develop software for their product. In one aspect of the present invention, a method is provided that includes providing a first mode signal to a processor to operate in a development mode. The method also includes executing instructions stored in a first region of the memory in response to the first mode signal, providing data to the processor, and writing the data into a second region of the memory.
Claims22
A method, comprising:
- providing a first mode signal to a processor to operate in a development mode;
- executing instructions stored in a first region of the memory in response to the first mode signal;
- providing data to the processor;
- and
- writing the data into a second region of the memory.
2 more elements
An apparatus, comprising:
- a memory having a first region, the first region of the memory containing executable instructions;
- and
- a processor adapted to receive a first mode signal, the processor being capable of executing the executable instructions from the first region of the memory to operate mode in a development mode in response to receiving the first mode signal.
A multi-chip module, comprising:
- an integrated circuit, comprising:
- a first memory having executable instructions;
- and
- a processor adapted to receive a first mode signal, the processor being capable of executing the executable instructions from the first memory during a development mode in response to receiving the first mode signal;
- and
- a second memory coupled to the integrated circuit, the second memory being adapted to receive and store executable instructions during the development mode under the control of the executable instructions stored in the first memory.
