PROCESSOR-SDK-AM62X: Bare metal SDK for AM62x

Part Number: PROCESSOR-SDK-AM62X

For AM62x processors you provide SDKs for Linux/Android or MCU-only SDK for RTOS/bare-metal.
What about the AM62x A53 SDK with CSL and examples for bare metal. Will it be available and when?

There is some mysterious AM62X_RESTRICTED_SW which one must request, but for other processors you provide these SDKs freely, like
ti-processor-sdk-rtos-am65xx-evm-08_02_00_05-windows-x64-installer.exe so I assume that's not what we are looking for.

  • Nick,

    please help us understand your requirement in a bit more detail so that I can help you better.

    we do support different software development kits. please look at the https://www.ti.com/product/AM625#software-development

    There is some mysterious AM62X_RESTRICTED_SW which one must request

    Feedback has already been given to the hosting team to correct it. Some software is distributed through My Secure software(MSS) because of multiple reasons which I cannot elaborate here. The SDK here is not a general purpose SDK hence under MSS.

  • The baremetal SDK for AM62x is meant only for Cortex-M4. There is no startup code for Cortex-A53. No GIC code for Cortex-A53 etc.
    It does not even include aarch64 binutils, which means its code it is not supposed to be compiled for Cortex-A53.

    Baremetal SDK for AM65x (for instance) does include CSL with A53-specific code.

    I am asking if and when you will create full (not MCU-only) baremetal SDK for AM62x.

  • Nick,

    we don't have a roadmap in current year for Free RTOS/Baremetal Support on A53 Cores.
