PROCESSOR-SDK-AM64X: purpose of uniflash.

Part Number: PROCESSOR-SDK-AM64X
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: UNIFLASH

Tool/software:

Hi, what is the purpose for uniflash?
uniflash can be done in both uart and jtag.
Thanks
  • For my understanding, the purpose of uniflash is only used to make the chip boot from flash. 

    1. debug purporse. 

    2. manufactory purpose. 

    3. prove ospi  works fine.

    Other than that, there is no purpose.  Am I right? Thanks

  •  what  would we miss if we avoid doing the flashing step on our costum board ?

    I mean I used lauterbach to run, all works fine. 

  • Hi Jun,

    Other than that, there is no purpose.  Am I right? Thanks

    You are correct. The only purpose of Uniflash is to flash the given set of images to the onboard storage media like NOR or eMMC flashes to make the board bootable from these flash part by choosing the corresponding bootmode.

    You may choose to completely skip this during your development and go ahead with your already working setup.
