imp006 Pre-Programmed Serial Flash
NOTE! Correct selection of variant is critical. If you have no WiFi module in your design, you MUST pick the imp006c image. See below for more information. Overview The imp006 module requires an external SPI flash chip, which must be preloaded with impOS firmware. SPI flash sizes between 64Mbit (8 MByte) and 128Mbit (16MByte) are supported. Developers without the capability to load the image to a Serial flash can purchase these 64Mbit SOIC8W flash devices preprogrammed with the impOS image. These pre-programmed devices are intended to make prototyping quick and easy - in production, your flash supplier or manufacturer will generally offer bulk programming services. For bulk programming, the required SPI image is available for download from the Electric Imp website. The device provided here is an 64Mbit (8MByte) S25FL064LABMFI013 from Cypress Semiconductor.
