+Summary
+=======
+
+This README is about U-Boot support for TI's ARM 926EJS based family of SoCs.
+These SOCs are used for cameras, video security and surveillance, DVR's, etc.
+DaVinci SOC's comprise of DM644x, DM646x, DM35x and DM36x series of SOC's
+Additionally there are some SOCs meant for the audio market which though have
+an OMAP part number are very similar to the DaVinci series of SOC's
+Additionally, some family members contain a TI DSP and/or graphics
+co processors along with a host of other peripherals.
+
+Currently the following boards are supported:
+
+* TI DaVinci DM644x EVM
+
+* TI DaVinci DM646x EVM
+
+* TI DaVinci DM355 EVM
+
+* TI DaVinci DM365 EVM
+
+* TI DA830 EVM
+
+* DM355 based Leopard board
+
+* DM644x based schmoogie board
+
+* DM644x based sffsdr board
+
+* DM644x based sonata board
+

+
+Bootloaders
+===============
+
+The DaVinci SOC's use 2 bootloaders. The low level initialization
+is done by a UBL(user boot loader). The UBL is written to a NAND/NOR/SPI flash
+by a programmer. During initial bootup, the ROM Bootloader reads the UBL
+from a storage device and loads it into the IRAM. The UBL then loads the U-Boot
+into the RAM.
+The programmers and UBL are always released as part of any standard TI
+software release associated with an SOC.
