Hi,
I have an issue about "invalid start address". I try to transfer application code via teraTerm. At the end of the flow, the correct crc comparison is made, but there is no jump to the application.TeraTerm Screen;

Could you please help me to fix this problem ?or do you have any advice ?Thank you.
Hello and thank you for posting on the Renesas community.Could you please share your bootloader's code? if you're using a sample code or modifying one please tell me. What's the exact part number that you're using? Also, I appreciate any other information that can clarify the issue. Regards,
Hossein.
If this or any other user's response answers your concern, kindly verify the answer. Thank you!
