SK-AM62: Linux app image and HSM app image is needed for flashing example(m4f)

Part Number: SK-AM62

I am trying to flash an example code on AM62 SK EVM and followed flashing procedure as per the attached link.

 https://software-dl.ti.com/mcu-plus-sdk/esd/AM62X/latest/exports/docs/api_guide_am62x/GETTING_STARTED_FLASH.html.

I flashed the example without building  linux appimage and hsm appimage. Even after successfully  flashed the  application(hello world) is not running. i.e., no output on the MCU 's  UART  terminal. 

Is the linuxapp image and hsm app image is needed to flash the board? I want to run the application on M4F, for this  hsm and linux app image is needed ?

Please reply

Thanks 

  • Hi Mohan,

    You do not need hsm.appimage & linux.appimage to run the application. About the issue, do you see any SBL logs or any logs on any UART instances. In a normal boot, you get logs on three different UART instances from SBL, DM and M4F application.

  • Dear Prasanth

    Thanks for your quick reply. I got logs on MAIN UART terminal. Here I am attaching the logs. Please check it and let me know the solution to flash the example

  • Hi Mohan,

    Thanks for sharing the logs!

    So, SBL is booting. Now, did you get DM logs like below on one of the UART instance?

    Without DM, the application can't run.

    Also, if you used the default ipc_rpmsg_echo_linux.release.appimage as DM image at line 40 in the default_sbl_ospi_linux.cfg, please once try flashing the original DM image as shown below and then run the application.

    This DM image can be build by running the below command from <MCU+ SDK INSTALL DIR>/tools/boot/deviceManagerAppimageGen

    gmake -s BOARD=am62x-sk all

  • Hi Mohan,

    Please let us know if you got the application working.
