The AIS interpreter on the host processor is responsible for transferring the AIS to the bootloader. Therefore, the host has to understand the transfer protocol and implement the required handshake mechanism.
NOTE
For the sake of simplicity, the AIS interpreter on the host processor will simply be referred to as host in these sections.
It is important to establish a reliable link between the host and the bootloader before starting a serial boot load using the AIS. Once this link is established, the AIS can be transferred to the bootloader. This process is divided into three states: start-word synchronization (SWS), ping Op-code synchronization (POS) and op-code synchronization (OS).
