AM263P4-Q1: PRU - SENT and Functional Safety

Hi Jacob,

Jacob Wyrick said:

Do we have example code or reference documentation for enabling SENT interface on the PRU blocks?

We currently do not have software present on AM263Px. We have it implemented on AM263x.AM263x MCU+ SDK: SENT Decoder Using PRUICSS IEP ECAP Example

For systems which are functional safety conscious, is it advisable to use the PRU for SENT interface? Are there any comments we can provide around using the PRU for SENT interface in functional safety applications? What limitations might there be and why?

Hi Jacob, Can you give more details on their block diagram? Like are they planning to use sent as redundant channel sensor interface. I will loop in our safety expert here.

Are there any expected issues if we try to implement the AM263x PRU code on the AM263P4? Would it be able to be easily transferred to the newer device?
