TMDSIDK437X: Sysconfig tool question.

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SYSCONFIG

Hello.

I am trying to configure the pins of the chip as needed by my task. For this I use the tool Sysconfig. As a starting point, I took the file idkevm_config.pinmux from ti-processor-sdk-rtos-am437x-evm-06.03.00.106.

I needed to configure the output of the chip so that PWM2 was connected to pin A10. I did it and I managed to bring the PWM to this pin. I checked this with an oscilloscope.

Unfortunately I was unable to find a description of what Any before (B10) stands for. What will happen to pin B10 in this case?

Best regards, Dmitry.

    The SysConfig tool has an auto solver to make it easy to capture a use case.  Signals that have "Any" for the pin assignment, the tool is free to select any pin that satisfies that signal requirement. If a solution exists, the pin selected by the auto solver is shown in the parenthesis. 

    For signal pins that have been locked by the user, "Any"  will be replaced by a lock symbol.  This is a good option for instances and pins that should be fixed for the use case. These cannot be moved by the auto solver. 

    Locked instances and pins will limit the ability of the auto solver to find a solution for the use case being captured. The larger the number of locked instances/pins, the more constrained the solver will be.
