AM6442: Demo code to go with webinar: AM64x Processor Enables Communication and Real-time Control

Part Number: AM6442

Hi,

The demo https://training.ti.com/decentralized-multi-axis-motor-control, referenced https://e2e.ti.com/support/processors-group/processors/f/processors-forum/975576/am6442-webinar-new-sitara-am64x-processor-enables-communication-and-real-time-control, says the demo should be part of the processor SDK for am64 (see screenshot below).

I the only demo I see in PSDK v7.02 and v7.03 is the Benchmark Demo. Could you provide the correct reference for the motor control demo?

  • Hi, thanks for the request. I'd be happy to help provide the code. Is there anything in particular you are looking for?

    You can still access the documentation here.

    As you can see, there is quite a bit of software and hardware required to fully set up the demo. If you don't plan to rebuild the whole demo, then I would like to focus on the particular parts you are interested in.

    Thanks for your feedback.

  • Hi,

    We can get source code on the R5's based on the earlier SDK via your FAE, I've asked him to contact you. It is in the 7.2 SDK, but the not in the MCU+ SDK 7.3. Note as can be seen in the picture the demo shown in the video requires quite a lot of hardware beyond the AM6442 EVM to set-up, with further three C2000 boards with motor control PWMs, the AM6442 runs the EtherCAT. An integrated sing chip demo with all of the motor control from filedbus to PWMs will be part of the MCU+ SDK later this year.

  • Thanks, Ron and Pekka.

    I'd focus first on following the IPC communication in NO-OS and RTOS (I guess this is still TI-RTOS) as well as the FSI communication from the R5(s). 

    I think getting me the R5 source code would be perfect. Thank you!
