AM5718: Baremetal on AM5718

it is possible to implement baremetal on am5718

I think so yes, I see JTAG pins in datasheet. I dont see no reason why you can't. Having said that I do not see any baremetal SDK on AM5718 product page, maybe TI dosen't support it I guess. You can wait for TI guys to confirm.

Is there any procedure that explains that i can work with baremetal in am5718?

I am not sure where you will find one specific to AM5718. I managed to implement my own APIs for many peripherals on AM6442 by reading the just the TRM, maybe you can start there. But there will always be a few peripherals you cant program by just reading the TRM because the documentation is bad. If you are new to TI SoCs id stay away.

how can i load the code into am5718?

Id use JTAG for development, I briefed through the AM5718 TRM and I see the following as boot options for your final application:

NOR flash devices

NAND flash devices

SPI/QSPI flash memories 

eMMC memories

SD cards

SATA SSD

HDD storage memory devices

hi

Thank you for sharing the information. Yes, sure i will wait for TI guys reply.

Thanks & regards,

Bhardwaj.

Hi josue,

        Yes, I have seen that no-os-bare-metal-example page in RTOS but i need a clarification whether it is run under debug mode only or can we load code permanently into flash devices?

debug mode: After power on the device using jtag running in debug mode after power off the device we need to do  same procedure.

for example,

Can we load the code(.out) file into emmc nand flash using debug mode, after that i will change the boot mode to EMMC nand flash and then whether it runs from emmc or flash is it possible?

thanks
