A.4.3.1. Boot Source I/O Pins

The HPS has 17 dedicated I/O pins. Three are used as a clock, cold reset and warm reset pin. The warm reset signal is a bidirectional signal; a warm reset event can drive into the HPS, or a warm reset event can be generated by the HPS and drive out of this pin.

The remaining 14 dedicated I/O pins are used for boot devices as well as other peripherals. Three of these 14 dedicated I/O pins are sampled by software at either cold or warm reset and convey boot source information. The following table identifies the pin mux values for the boot source options.

Table 310.   Boot Source MUX Selects This table identifies the dedicated HPS signals that are mapped to each boot interface and the mux select value each boot interface signal requires. Note that Clock Manager clock inputs are also assigned to MUX select 4 and are documented here for thoroughness.

Table 311.   Boot Source MUX Selects (Alternate View)This table displays the same information as the prior table but as an alternative view per interface selected. The number in each cell shows the mux select value needed to select the correct interface signal on the pin
