PSoC 4 Bootloader, encrypt image and image size check

[TamirM]

1. i would like to know if a Size check is preformed before a new image can be uploaded via Bootloader. that is, bootloader validate if there is enough space in app slot while receiving image data.

2. is there a build-in method to encrypt image and then upload it to PSoC?

>>Yes because while building bootloadable project in PSoC creator itself it will check for total size occupied. Else the project will not build.

2. is there a build-in method to encrypt image and then upload it to PSoC?

>>No. We have to upload the .cyacd file generated by PSoC creator. But we can provide security key while bootloading to ensure security.
