Re: Data to fill into unused program space on ARM7.

Fill it with NOP instructions.

1) Is NOP the same for ARM and THUMB?
2) How would that catch the error?
The processor would just run to the end of flash and execute whatever the
HW returns when no device is being addressed.

I would like the processor to reset so that further potentially harmful
execution of un-intended instructions is stopped.

Best regards
Michael
