nRF52832 Bootloader at end of Flash memory

[beemavishnu]

Hello,

In below link, I am bit confused between “With bootloader” and “Without bootloader”. What for this bootloader.

https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.nordic.infocenter.sdk5.v15.3.0%2Flib_fstorage.html

 

But as per SoftDevice Memory usage, I am seeing only “Master Boot Record”.

https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.nordic.infocenter.sdk5.v15.3.0%2Flib_fstorage.html

 

I want to write data records into Flash. To be safe side I am trying to understand what for “Bootloader” at end of Flash, so that I don’t what to corrupt. Also I loaded “ble_app_blinky” (ble_peripheral) and in Memory layout I am not seeing any Bootloader at end of Flash.

Thanks & Regards
