AM62P: Confusion about AM62P-LP Yocto MACHINE Selection

Part Number: AM62P


Greetings,

We are currently developing software for the AM62P-LP board and intend to use a Yocto-based build system for our integration.

When configuring the Yocto build, we are prompted to select a MACHINE, and the available AM62-related options include:

  • am62axx-evm

  • am62axx-evm-k3r5

  • am62dxx-evm

  • am62dxx-evm-k3r5

  • am62lxx-evm

  • am62pxx-evm

  • am62pxx-evm-k3r5

  • am62xx-evm

  • am62xx-evm-k3r5

  • am62xx-lp-evm

  • am62xx-lp-evm-k3r5

  • am62xxsip-evm

  • am62xxsip-evm-k3r5

Given that our target hardware is the AM62P-LP board, we would appreciate clarification on which MACHINE configuration is recommended—specifically, whether am62xx-lp-evm or am62pxx-evm is the correct choice, because there is no available am62pxx-lp-evm.

Additionally, we would like to understand the potential implications or risks of selecting an incorrect MACHINE (e.g., differences in device tree, boot configuration, supported peripherals, or long-term maintainability).

Thank you for your guidance.

Best regards,
Dušan
