PROCESSOR-SDK-AM65X: AM65x PDK missing when installing Linux SDK installer

Part Number: PROCESSOR-SDK-AM65X

AM65x SDK 7.01

When I install the RTOS SDK (using ti-processor-sdk-rtos-am65xx-evm-07_01_00_14-windows-x64-installer.exe on Windows host) it installs the PDK at the same time.

Now I've moved to a Linux machine with Linux SDK, but ti-processor-sdk-linux-am65xx-evm-07_01_00_17-Linux-x86-Install.bin does not install the PDK files.

Looks like I could check out the PDK myself from TI git, but I want to make sure I'm not missing something first.

  • Hi Steven,

    Your observation is correct. Linux SDK manifest installs all Linux components only. PDK and RTOS components will be provided as firmwares in Linux file system.

    If you are looking for PDK sources, then please install RTOS SDK.

    Thanks & Regards,

    Sunita.

  • Thanks Sunita. I looked in the file system that was installed with the SDK and did find compiled PDK components under /lib/firmware. Presumably these are compiled from the same PDK sources that was installed with the RTOS SDK?

    In other words, can I copy the PDK sources from the RTOS SDK over to my Linux machine if I need to make changes for use with the Linux SDK?

  • Hi Steven,

    The firmware libraries come with Linux SDK are mostly compatible with the sources in RTOS SDK.

    However, there are few exceptions whether the firmware is supported only in binary form.

    Please refer to the user guide for the firmware of interest to you.

    Thanks & Regards,

    Sunita.
