AM4378: TMDXEVM437XH Processor Requirements

Part Number: AM4378

Tool/software:

Hi,

  we are looking to update a legacy design with a GP processor to use a high security processor, but I'm not sure what we need to acquire for evaluation.  I've seen reference to the high security EVK having a socket vs a soldered down CPU, and I assume this is so we can swap out chips with burnt fuses for new ones.

  I'm struggling to find any other documentation, although I do already have ift and am able to generate firmware.

  My questions are:

1) Does the EVK come with one or more high security CPUs?

2) What do we need to do to prepare a new CPU for installation?  It it enough to take a new CPU directly out of the reel and insert, or is there a process to prepare it?

3) If we need additional CPUs for evaluation, is there a particular version we should use?

Thanks for your time.

Scott
