Hi TI expert,
We tried to boot mcu1_1 through sbl, but found that mcu1_1 could not be started successfully if the entry point was set to ATCM, BTCM or DDR. Only if the entry point was set in MSMC (such as 0x70012000), it could be started successfully. Is this a normal phenomenon?
Best regards !
QuanLi
Hi Quan,
No, you should be able to boot with entry point in ATCM without any issues.
Can you please share more details? Which SDK version are you using? What example are you trying to load?
Also, did you try running IPC echo test on MCU1_1? I believe that places entry point in TCMs.
Regards,
Parth
Hi Parth,
SDK:8.6
The test firmware is compiled with make sbl_boot_test BOARD=j784s4_evm CORE=mcu1_1.
