AM62A7-Q1: How much similar with TDA4 in QNX SDK?

Part Number: AM62A7-Q1

Tool/software:

Dear Champs,

My customer has developed DMS camera application on TDA4AL using QNX and now trying to investigate AM62A for their next project.

They requested more details how much similar between TDA4 and AM62A in QNX SDK.

Is it possible to provide details how much similar with TDA4 in AM62A QNX SDK?

Thanks and Best Regards,

SI.

  • Hi SI,

    In terms of software deliverables/component ownership coming from QNX and TI and SDK codebase, AM62A and TDA4 are similar.

    However few differences to be considered are:

    - Display: TDA4 display drivers are R5 based implemented by TI, for AM62A display drivers come from QNX part of Screen Framework running on A53;

    - Sensor and CSI driver: TDA4 CSI and camera sensor drivers are implemented on R5 core, for AM62A these run on A53. Although in both cases the drivers are implemented by TI

    -  2A node in case of AM62A runs on A53 core.

    Despite above differences, the application stack is very similar among TDA4 and AM62A. For e.g. similar TIOVX based single camera/multi camera applications are supported in both platforms with checks making sure the underlying drivers are not exposed on application level.

    So if customer has a vision_apps application implemented on TDA4, porting it to AM62A won't be difficult. We have reused the J7 applications on AM62A.

    Regards,
