Hello Mari,

I would like to answer your question based off domains here.

So, I am listing here the list of domains here and the recommended UART port for debugging.

R5 MAIN Domain: WKUP_USART0
M4F MCU Domain: MCU_USART0

Also, if you use our tool SysConfig, you will find that as soon as you enable Debugging, the above mentioned UART peripherals will automatically be configured for you.

Please check the snapshot below.(It shows SysConfig for M4f Domain)

I hope this helps.

Best Regards,

Vaibhav

I would also like to bring your attention to the below details for SK-AM62. The information portrays different UARTs and their purpose.

MAIN_UART0: Used for Linux and U-Boot on A53

MAIN_UART1: Used for TIFS firmware

WKUP_UART0: Used for DM firmware

MCU_UART0: Used for MCU+ SDK demos and examples on M4
