Abstract

A process for initializing and booting the CPU of a wireless communication device includes a sequence controller, ROM, a ROM controller, a DMA controller, a wireless front end, a memory, and a remote wireless host which contains the download code. The sequence controller causes the ROM controller initially transfers a Source, a Destination and a Length to the DMA controller, which uses these values to copy the ROM contents into the memory. Thereafter, the sequence controller causes the CPU to start executing the code that has been transferred into memory by the ROM controller, and the CPU thereafter downloads the operating system into memory using the wireless front end, which is receiving an original and duplicate packet from the remote host. Upon completion of the download, the CPU executes the downloaded operating system and begins operation of the device.
