Summary

This application note demonstrates the systematic implementation of LFU for real-time control applications and specifically high availability systems needing operation without downtime. Switchover to new firmware is able to be completed within 60 CPU clock cycles with the available LFU building blocks, including a novel application LFU software flow and hardware LFU support.
