Overview

This page documents the project FLASH linker script as a stable reference page instead of relying on Doxygen's normal file-reference handling for linker-script files.
The content below is a verbatim snapshot of STM32H753ZITX_FLASH.ld from this project and documents:
the internal FLASH and RAM memory map
the FMC-mapped external SRAM region at 0x60000000
the .sramdata output section used by globalDataCopy.s
