The configuration memory is a dedicated region of flash memory (not the same as the code region) which stores the configuration data used by the BCR and BSL to boot the device. The region is not used for any other purpose. The BCR and BSL both have configuration policies which can be left at their default values (as is typical during development and evaluation), or modified for specific purposes (as is typical during production programming) by altering the values programmed into the configuration flash region.
The BCR and BSL configuration data structures are both contained within a single flash sector in the configuration memory region. To change any parameter in the boot configuration, it is necessary to erase the entire configuration memory and re-program both the BCR and BSL configuration structures with the desired settings.
The configuration data in this region is not affected by a mass erase command, but it is erased and re-programmed to factory defaults by a factory reset command sent to the BCR via the debug sub system mailbox (DSSM) over SWD.
The configuration memory is also erased by a factory reset command sent to the BSL using the UART, I2C, or MCAN BSL interface. However, unlike the DSSM factory reset, the BSL factory reset does not program TI factory defaults to the configuration memory following the erase. As such, it is the responsibility of the host which is connected to the microcontroller target (via the BSL interface) to re-program the configuration memory with a valid configuration before terminating the BSL session.
The address ranges for the NONMAIN data structures are given in the NONMAIN Registers section. A detailed breakdown of the NONMAIN region is provided at the end of this section.
