The Power Architect software working with one of the XRP77xx demo boards, allows designers to start configuring the demo board through the software to match what the system goals are. The next step is to put the PowerXR product down on the board.  With an XCM, or configuration module that acts as the interface and boot-loader to the PowerXR device, designers do not have to program the PowerXR device when it is put down on the board. The XCM module has Flash on board, which gets powered by the system when it comes up, boot-loads the XRP 7714 for example, and the system comes up. Then if the user wants to make changes they simply bring up the Power Architect software, change what is in the Flash on the XCM module, and go ahead and re-sequence the system. Then if users want to make changes they simply bring up the Power Architect software, change what is in the Flash on the XCM module, and go ahead and re-sequence the system. So not only does the power designer have the ability to make these changes, but now the power designer can hand it off to the system designer and they can start making their own changes.
