Cortex A7 - Boot from SPI NOR vs Execution In Place (XIP)

ENRICO

Hi folks,

I've been working for years with ARM -M processors and I'm facing -A processors for the first time.

I fell in love with Allwinner's V3S processor which is v7-A type.

The datasheet says that the processor is able to boot from an external SPI NOR memory.

The datasheet doesn't say anything about Execution In Place (XIP)

Question

Can I assume that the processor is able to execute code (XIP) directly from the SPI NOR external memory?

Thanks in advance,

Enrico Migliore
