There are several possible methods that can be used to implement running
reset. The following illustrates one example of a running reset implemen-
tation involving an SHARC processor and a host processor.
External Host
In an AVR (audio-video receiver) system, a host microcontroller may
communicate with the processor using the serial peripheral interface (SPI)
or, if no SPI pins are available on the host device, it can use spare flag I/Os
to connect with the SPI of a SHARC as shown in
case, the host implements the SPI protocol on the port pins.

Processor Booting
When a processor is initially powered up, its internal SRAM is undefined.
Before actual program execution can begin, the application must be
loaded from an external non-volatile source such as flash memory or a host
processor. This process is known as bootstrap loading or booting and is
automatically performed by the processor after power-up or after a soft-
ware reset.
