AM2431: Use USB from the USBSS and from SERDES sumaltenously

Hi Geoffrey,

Can you please elaborate the above query?

Are you looking for dual role USB functionality?

The above is not possible. We only have 1 x USB DRD controller, that can either operate as host or device at a time.

Hi Tushar, 

If you take a look at the DS : 

You can use the SERDES as USB superspeed gen1. Do you have confirm that you can't use it simultaneously with the USB DRD controller?

The SERDES module is common to both USB and PCIE. So at the time you can either use PCIE functionality or USB communication with SERDES.

When SERDES is use with USB, USB can communicate as SuperSpeed Gen1 otherwise can be configured as USB2.0 (High Speed/Full Speed).

The USB 3.0 superspeed is not supported by the current SDK offering. Please refer USB_DEVICE_DRIVER for supported and unsupported features via SDK.

Hope the above information clarifies the doubt.

Hi, 

So I don't use PCIe, is it possible to use the USB from the USBSS AND the USB from SERDES ?

Regards

Tushar:

 as a followup: that SERDES is meant only be useful for " (USB 3.0 HOST in AM64x) exclusive or (PCIE)" - and for no other general purpose - true?

thanks
