SREC: (I am not much sure) It seems an old format used

mostly by motorola.

It's like BIN format, but has other information used for

downloading. It seems

some bootloaders need SREC format for downloading.

SREC is more or less the same as a BIN file but it has an address and
checksum so it would be much smaller if you want to put a
byte at 0 and
one at 100000 and you can be sure that is is correctly transfered.

A big difference is that SREC is full ascii, which means lots of
bytes of overhead, which means longer transfer times if you're loading
via rs232.
