These boards can also be used in a "pass through" mode as JTAG adapters
to other target boards, disabling the Stellaris chip.

+@quotation Compatibility Note
+Segger released many firmware versions for the many harware versions they
+produced. OpenOCD was extensively tested and intended to run on all of them,
+but some combinations were reported as incompatible. As a general
+recommendation, it is advisable to use the latest firmware version
+available for each hardware version. However the current V8 is a moving
+target, and Segger firmware versions released after the OpenOCD was
+released may not be compatible. In such cases it is recommended to
+revert to the last known functional version. For 0.5.0, this is from
+"Feb 8 2012 14:30:39", packed with 4.42c. For 0.6.0, the last known
+version is from "May 3 2012 18:36:22", packed with 4.46f.

+NXP's LPC43xx and LPC18xx families include a proprietary SPI
+Flash Interface (SPIFI) peripheral that can drive and provide
+memory mapped access to external SPI flash devices.
+
+The lpcspifi driver initializes this interface and provides

+Use of this driver @b{requires} a working area of at least 1kB
+to be configured on the target device; more than this will
+significantly reduce flash programming times.
+
+The setup command only requires the @var{base} parameter. All
+other parameters are ignored, and the flash size and layout
+are configured by the driver.
