Hi

    We are using adsp 21364 for audio processing application.I want to
know is there any advantage for SPI booting over parallel port booting

SPI flash takes less board space than parallel port flash.  So it can
reduce overall cost and size of a project.  But it's slower since you only
get 1 bit at a time versus 8, so it takes longer to wake up.  Depends on
what is more important for your application.

Absolutely!

SPI serial flash uses a small 8 pin part. Parallel flash uses a 32 pin 
part. Do you really want to route all those signals to a much bigger 
part for no real benefit?
