TYPE

The TYPE tag is a 32-bit unsigned integer that when viewed in little-endian format, states the type of firmware image the IMG2/IMG3/IMG4/IM4P file is. Is is compared with the second parameter of  (register  ). If it does not match,  will fail and the image will not be loaded. If  is passed in , then the check is skipped.
