摘要:
Compression and the caching of decompressed code in RAM is described by using an uncompressed paged instruction caching fault method to keep all of code compressed in a FLASH memory. The method only decompresses and caches in DRAM memory the portion of code that is miming at a certain instance in time (i.e., DRAM window), which maintains a pre-fetched portion of code based on static windowing FLASH.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, a section map may be used which utilizes a series of section maps, each section map including a predetermined number of bits, such as 32 bits. Each section map may include a single bit which indicates what is stored in the first 15 bits. For example, the last 16 bits of a section map may indicate whether the first 16 sections have been received. Another bit may be used to indicate what is stored in the first 15 bits. For example, the first 15 bits may indicate whether the next 15 sections have been received, or they may indicate an index pointing to the next section map.
