Hi all,

On the Baytrail E3800 what is the hardware Strap "Security Flash Descriptors " actually used for.

Normally I am assuming it is left default is high (normal) instead of the other option (0=override).

Thanks in Advance.

Thanks. I found what I needed in section 31.2.3.3 Descriptor Security Override Strap.

This is review of an old design as we were planning on using the previous design as the base for a new product.
