10.4.2 Activation Flow

The purpose of the activation flow is to perform a one-time action per device by the vendor to switch the device ownership from TI to the vendor to secure its IP. This means that from this point on, any vendor IP stored on the device cannot be accessed by anyone without vendor privileges and credentials.

The CC35xx device executes the boot sequence for device activation in two stages through a Chain of Trust that terminates at TI level.

Activation Flow Figure 10-3 Activation Flow

A detailed description of the flow is as follows:

  • Flow execution upon special reset triggered through the debug I/F.
  • BL1, authenticates and invokes BL2 into the co-processor from the debug I/F.
  • BL2 performs the following actions:
    • Identifies that the device is not yet activated.
    • Authenticates the vendor’s programming instructions and verifies its format.
    • Performs the vendor credentials installation on the OTP by programming the vendor ROT fuses as indicated in the fuse instructions.
  • BL2 issues a report to indicate success or failure of the process

If successful, from this point on – the device is associated with the vendor who owns the private key whose hash of public key is installed on the device.

This ROT installation and identification method is a common industry good security practice and part of the MCUboot infrastructure.
