I know of a SoC, which drives the flash from its on-chip ISP. The GPIO connected to the flash controller's external strobe pin can be configured so that the signal is routed to it from the ISP or from CPU (for software strobe mode).

Do you suggest using more generic name than 'flashes'? -- Best Regards, Jacek Anaszewski
