Flash Layout Vybrid and iMX7

Colibri VF50, Colibri VF61 and Colibri iMX7 use a common raw Nand flash to store OS, configuration and user data.

The flash device is organized as follows:

• the page size is 2kB
• a block consists of 64 pages.

The following flash layout describes the allocation of flash memory in the default configuration for Windows CE. Notes are inserted where the user can influence the flash layout.

First page# (first block#)	size	Description
0 (Block 0)	2 kB	FCB factory data
1 (Block 0)	2 kB	Static config block
2 (Block 0)	2 kB	Bad block table
3 (Block 0)	122 kB	unused

1. Starting position and size are affected by the configblock setting part.nonfssize.
   The starting location is page (part.nonfssize * 512) (block part.nonfssize * 8).
   The size is (total flash size in MB) - part.nonfssize MB.↩
2. The location of OS / Registry / Splashscreen inside this section depends on the order of flashing. These three parts can even be interleaved.↩
3. The size of the section for registry, OS and splash screen can be modified through the configblock setting part.nonfssize.
   The actual size is: ((part.nonfssize * 1024) - 784) kB↩
