4 External 256kbytes flash is a unique feature of the RDV4 edition.

22 * 256KB (0x40000= 262144)
23 * divided into 4 pages of 64KB (0x10000 = 65536)
24 * 4 pages divided into 16 sectors of 4KB (0x1000 = 4096), so last sector is at 0x3F000
26 Therefore a flash address can be interpreted as such:
31 ^^^ offset ^^^ offset 0xF7F
38 * available for user data
39 * to dump it: `mem dump f page0_dump o 0 l 65536`
40 * to erase it: `mem wipe p 0`
43 * available for user data
44 * to dump it: `mem dump f page1_dump o 65536 l 65536`
45 * to erase it: `mem wipe p 1`
48 * available for user data
49 * to dump it: `mem dump f page2_dump o 131072 l 65536`
50 * to erase it: `mem wipe p 2`
53 * used by Proxmark3 RDV4 specific functions: flash signature and keys dictionaries, see below for details
54 * to dump it: `mem dump f page3_dump o 196608 l 65536`
56 * **Beware** it will erase your flash signature so better to back it up first as you won't be able to regenerate it by yourself!
57 * edit the source code to enable Page 3 as a valid input in the `mem wipe` command.
58 * Updating keys dictionaries doesn't require to erase page 3.
63 Page3 is used as follows by the Proxmark3 RDV4 firmware:
66 * offset: page 3 sector 9 (0x9) @ 3*0x10000+9*0x1000=0x39000
70 * offset: page 3 sector 11 (0xB) @ 3*0x10000+11*0x1000=0x3B000
74 * offset: page 3 sector 12 (0xC) @ 3*0x10000+12*0x1000=0x3C000
78 * offset: page 3 sector 13 (0xD) @ 3*0x10000+13*0x1000=0x3D000
79 * length: 1 sector (actually only a few bytes are used to store `t55xx_config` structure)
81 * **RSA SIGNATURE**, see below for details
82 * offset: page 3 sector 15 (0xF) offset 0xF7F @ 3*0x10000+15*0x1000+0xF7F=0x3FF7F (decimal 262015)
84 * offset should have been 0x3FF80 but historically it's one byte off and therefore the last byte of the flash is unused
89 To ensure your Proxmark3 RDV4 is not a counterfeit product, its external flash contains a RSA signature of the flash unique ID.
90 You can verify it with: `mem info`
