TDA2SX: [TDA2SX] How to disable dsp and eve cores?

Part Number: TDA2SX
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: DRA742

Hi experts:

1. My avm project does not use dsp and eve core，I want to boot the system without loading these two cores, How should I modify it?

2. Also, DSP and EVE cores take up a lot of memory, We don't have enough memory, So I want to disable dsp and eve core.

Please guide me

Thanks a lot ~

    Hi,

    Are you using TI SDK as your reference?

    You can keep DSP and EVE cores disabled in bootloader and you don't have to reserve memory for DSP and EVE core.

    Hi expert:

    -->Are you using TI SDK as your reference?

    Does the reference document refer to this document? 《VisionSDK_UserGuide_MemoryMap.pdf》，There are no steps for disable dsp and eve cores in this document.

    -->You can keep DSP and EVE cores disabled in bootloader and you don't have to reserve memory for DSP and EVE core.

    Can you provide a modification patch?

    Below is the log for allocating memory to the dsp core,The system reserves 32MB memory for the DSP.

    Thanks a lot ~
