US Patent 9836417 Bridge configuration in computing devices

Systems and methods are disclosed for configuring an interface bridge. A computing system includes a device controller, an interface bridge module coupled to the device controller configured to provide bridge functionality according to a first communication standard, a primary communication interface conforming to the first communication standard and coupled to the interface bridge module. The computing system further includes a first non-volatile memory module coupled to the interface bridge module, the first non-volatile memory module storing first stage boot loader code, a second non-volatile memory module coupled to the device controller, and a secondary communication interface conforming to a second communication standard coupled to the device controller. The device controller is configured to receive update package data over the secondary communication interface, the update package data including a firmware image, and write the update package data to the second non-volatile memory module.
