2.3 Switch Settings

The Figure 2-10 shows the part designators and positions of the switches on AWRL6888EVM for different SOP mode settings. Table 2-1 shows the different boot mode configurations for the device. AWRL6888 supports Application mode/Functional mode, Device management mode/QSPI flashing mode, and Debug modes. The mode (SOP) configurations shown below Table 2-1 must be exercised first. After the correct SOP mode is set, an nRESET must be issued to register the SOP setting. In the Figure 2-10 the current SOP mode shown is Debug mode.
