Hi
AM243 customer board
Senario:
Primary boot: ospi
Backup: uart boot
With uart connected to PC, Power off and power on, primary boot was jumped and go into backup boot.
Without uart connected to PC, power off and power on, ospi boot can succeed.
Reproduction way:
Power off and power on in seconds, 100% reproduce into uart boot.
Power off, wait one minute or longer, power on, boot succeed
HW change:
With this, there is no problem:
With this, there is problem.
Customer need:
Help to analyze if there is HW issue, if yes, change to previous version, any risk left?
Thanks

Hello Zekun
Thank you for the query.
Customer needs to verify IO compatibility - if the 3.3V used for the logic is same as the IO supply for the IO group referenced by the UART
Is customer expecting the UART interface data to be available when the SOC supplies are off. The SOC IOs are not fail-safe and no inputs should be applied before the SOC supply ramps

Customer needs to verify IO compatibility - if the 3.3V used for the logic IC is same as the IO supply for the IO group (VDDSHVx) referenced by the SOC UART interface pins.

Hi Sreenivasa:
Zekun sending the wrong message to you,we use the logic IC is no problem,this HW design there is problem,As shown in the figure below,but power of CH430 of USB-TTL supply by PC's USB interface.

Hello zhanglongc
Thank you for the inputs.
SOC IOs are not fail-safe. No input should be applied before supply ramps.
I assume the logic IC is powered by the IO supply that connects to the SOC.

Hi Sreenivasa:
1、So AM2432 jumped go into backup boot (UART mode) when Power off and power on,Reasons for the USB-TTL input to the AM2432 UART port before supply ramps?What's the harm in that?
2、I'd also like to know why this problem is causing AM2432 jumped go into backup boot (UART mode)。
Hello zhanglongc
Thank you.
SOC IOs are not fail-safe.
If the inputs are applied to any of the SOC IOs before the supply ramps, this could cause voltage feed that could affect the power supply or SOC performance.
I will need the complete schematics to be able to specifically answer the reason.
