Creation of MCUxpresso project to boot the code from SDRAM of imxrt1170 evk board

[Jeevan]

Hi team,

We are using IMXRT1170 EVK board for our project and MCUxpresso IDE to develop the code.

Kindly provide the steps for the project creation in MCUxpresso IDE and also any project setting required to be set in-order to execute the code or binary built from the MCUxpresso project in the SDRAM of the imxrt1170 evk board.

Hi @lpcxpresso_supp 

Thank you, team, it's a good document which you have shared to make the code boot from SDRAM.

Just had one small query, as the IMXRT1176 comes with 2 MB on-chip RAM, is the process mentioned in the section 14 of the "Using the MIMXRT1170-EVK and EVKB with MCUXpresso IDE" (RT1170_BriefOverview_v200.pdf) document same or any modifications need to be done.

Thanks for sharing this detailed documentation, it's fantastic! For the IMXRT1176, the modifications for using the MCUXpresso IDE are the same as in the documentation. Just need to check "Link to RAM" and move the SDRAM to the first RAM location.
