USB downloader mode has a time-out, if no activity is detected withing the set time period, the SoC will be reset.

Software can "fix" that - send downloader mode one valid command (get info will do) -
That will cause it to disable the initial safety timer.

Note: the "time out" is evidently related to clock speed - - its 90 seconds for the i.MX31 (K-DX) and only 30 seconds for the i.MX53 (K4&K5).
