today in normal microcontrollers (imxrt1052):
- no internal flash, requires an external (Q)SPI chip. both NOR and NAND are supported
- if you put a SOIC clip onto the chip it stops booting
- if you erase the flash it stops being accessible to a debugger
- if you assert SYSRESETREQ it stops talking to the debugger for long enough that everything times out. presumably it is looking in the flash for whether debugging is allowed or whatever
why is it like this ;w;
