AM625: What is target usecase of M4F

Genius 3186 points

Part Number: AM625

May I have question about AM62x hardware?

My customer is looking for a use for the M4F core.

Developing application is HMI.

Is there any target usecase of M4F who on MCUSS bus?

And Is there any application note or reference designe that use M4F anything?

I understand It core can operate as nomally mcu, but I can not imaging usecase in HMI.

Thanks,

Hi,

With regards to M4F, please review the following: https://e2e.ti.com/support/processors-group/processors/f/processors-forum/1187962/faq-sk-am62-how-to-execute-code-from-external-memory-using-m4f-core.

In terms of display, M4 can control the DSS and you can have static images being shown before Linux boots. We also have HW support for DSS safety features such as frame freeze. In this feature, M4 can get an interrupt if DSS HW detects frame freeze and M4 can reboot the HLOS core like A53.

Krunal
