4 This README is about U-Boot support for TI's ARM 926EJS based family of SoCs.
5 These SOCs are used for cameras, video security and surveillance, DVR's, etc.
6 DaVinci SOC's comprise of DM644x, DM646x, DM35x and DM36x series of SOC's
7 Additionally there are some SOCs meant for the audio market which though have
8 an OMAP part number are very similar to the DaVinci series of SOC's
9 Additionally, some family members contain a TI DSP and/or graphics
10 co processors along with a host of other peripherals.

80 Bootloaders
81 ===============
82
83 The DaVinci SOC's use 2 bootloaders. The low level initialization
84 is done by a UBL(user boot loader). The UBL is written to a NAND/NOR/SPI flash
85 by a programmer. During initial bootup, the ROM Bootloader reads the UBL
86 from a storage device and loads it into the IRAM. The UBL then loads the U-Boot
87 into the RAM.
88 The programmers and UBL are always released as part of any standard TI
89 software release associated with an SOC.
