AM62A7: Request for FreeRTOS Support and Interface Compatibility Details for AM62Ax with the Latest SDK

Janani J

Part Number: AM62A7

Hi Team,

We would like to confirm whether the following interfaces and functionalities are supported by FreeRTOS on the AM62Ax platform with the latest SDK release.

1. Cortex-A Core: FreeRTOS support and execution on the Cortex-A core.
2. USB 2.0: Host, Device, and OTG modes.
3. Gigabit Ethernet
4. DMA: DMA controller support.

Could you please confirm the support status of each item and share the relevant technical documentation, SDK configuration details, driver information, and example applications?
This information will help us evaluate the available functionality and validate these interfaces on our custom board.

Regards,
Janani

Hi Janani J,

As per the latest SDK

MCU+ SDK supports FreeRTOS on below CPUS

ARM R5F
TI C75

Not supported under FreeRTOS/MCU+ SDK - there is no USB driver and no USB example anywhere in the MCU+ SDK for AM62Ax.If your use case needs USB on AM62Ax, it has to go through the Linux side, not FreeRTOS

3. Gigabit Ethernet

Not supported under FreeRTOS/MCU+ SDK , it has to go through Linux only

Janani J said:
4. DMA: DMA controller support

supported on both sides (UDMA/dmautils under FreeRTOS, PKTDMA under Linux)

FreeRTOS : https://software-dl.ti.com/mcu-plus-sdk/esd/AM62AX/11_01_00_16/exports/docs/api_guide_am62ax/DRIVERS_UDMA_PAGE.html

Linux : https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/dma/ti/k3-pktdma.yaml

Thanks,
