[FAQ] [AM6XX]: How to check if device type is HS-SE, HS-FS or GP?

Part Number: PROCESSOR-SDK-AM64X

Hi, 

There is a concern around figuring out if the device in use is HS-SE, HS-FS or GP.

The above factor plays a vital role in selecting the image for SBL programming.

Lets have a look at one of the ways by which you can figure out the device type.

Thanks,

  • Here's a simple explanation which will help you figure out the device type.

    During the step of Flash SOC Initialization Binary you must have seen some values on UART COM port as shown in the image below.


    Follow the steps here:

    • Copy all the data content before character “C” and save it to a file called data.txt

    • Download the python script by clicking here

    • Once you have the python script and the data.txt in the same folder, simply run the command python uart_boot_socid.py data.txt

    • Now you will be able to figure out by reading the value of Device Type

    Have a look at a sample output by running the script shown in the image below.
