AM62 Platforms
==============

Introduction:
-------------
The AM62 SoC family is the follow on AM335x built on the K3 Multicore
SoC architecture platform, providing ultra-low-power modes, dual
display, multi-sensor edge compute, security and other BOM-saving
integrations.  The AM62 SoC targets a broad market to enable
applications such as Industrial HMI, PLC/CNC/Robot control, Medical
Equipment, Building Automation, Appliances and more.

Some highlights of this SoC are:

* Quad-Cortex-A53s (running up to 1.4GHz) in a single cluster.
  Pin-to-pin compatible options for single and quad core are available.
* Cortex-M4F for general-purpose or safety usage.
* Dual display support, providing 24-bit RBG parallel interface and
  OLDI/LVDS-4 Lane x2, up to 200MHz pixel clock support for 2K display
  resolution.
* Selectable GPU support, up to 8GFLOPS, providing better user experience
  in 3D graphic display case and Android.
* PRU(Programmable Realtime Unit) support for customized programmable
  interfaces/IOs.
* Integrated Giga-bit Ethernet switch supporting up to a total of two
  external ports (TSN capable).
* 9xUARTs, 5xSPI, 6xI2C, 2xUSB2, 3xCAN-FD, 3x eMMC and SD, GPMC for
  NAND/FPGA connection, OSPI memory controller, 3xMcASP for audio,
  1x CSI-RX-4L for Camera, eCAP/eQEP, ePWM, among other peripherals.
* Dedicated Centralized System Controller for Security, Power, and
  Resource Management.
* Multiple low power modes support, ex: Deep sleep, Standby, MCU-only,
  enabling battery powered system design.

Boot Flow:
----------
Below is the pictorial representation of boot flow:

- Here TIFS acts as master and provides all the critical services. R5/A53
  requests TIFS to get these services done as shown in the above diagram.

As the SPL size can get too big when building with support for booting both
from local storage *and* DFU an extra config fragment should be used to enable
DFU support (and disable storage support)

Target Images
-------------

In order to boot we need tiboot3.bin, tispl.bin and u-boot.img.  Each SoC
variant (GP, HS-FS, HS-SE) requires a different source for these files.

 - GP

        * tiboot3-am62x-gp-evm.bin from step 3.1
        * tispl.bin_unsigned, u-boot.img_unsigned from step 3.2

 - HS-FS

        * tiboot3-am62x-hs-fs-evm.bin from step 3.1
        * tispl.bin, u-boot.img from step 3.2

 - HS-SE

        * tiboot3-am62x-hs-evm.bin from step 3.1
        * tispl.bin, u-boot.img from step 3.2

Switch Setting for Boot Mode
----------------------------

Boot Mode pins provide means to select the boot mode and options before the
device is powered up. After every POR, they are the main source to populate
the Boot Parameter Tables.

The following table shows some common boot modes used on AM62 platform. More
details can be found in the Technical Reference Manual:
https://www.ti.com/lit/pdf/spruiv7 under the `Boot Mode Pins` section.

.. list-table:: Boot Modes
   :widths: 16 16 16
   :header-rows: 1

   * - Switch Label
     - SW2: 12345678
     - SW3: 12345678

   * - SD
     - 01000000
     - 11000010

   * - OSPI
     - 00000000
     - 11001110

   * - EMMC
     - 00000000
     - 11010010

   * - UART
     - 00000000
     - 11011100

   * - USB DFU
     - 00000000
     - 11001010

For SW2 and SW1, the switch state in the "ON" position = 1.

DFU based boot
--------------

To boot the board over DFU, set the switches to DFU mode and connect to the
USB type C DRD port on the board. After power-on the build artifacts needs to be
uploaded one by one with a tool like dfu-util.

.. am62x_evm_rst_include_start_dfu_boot

The initial ROM will have a DFU alt named `bootloader` for the initial R5 spl
upload. The next stages as exposed by U-Boot have target alts matching the name
of the artifacts, for these a USB reset has to be done after each upload.

When using dfu-util the following commands can be used to boot to a U-Boot shell:

.. prompt:: bash $

  dfu-util -a bootloader -D tiboot3.bin
  dfu-util -R -a tispl -D tispl.bin
  dfu-util -R -a u-boot.img -D u-boot.img

.. am62x_evm_rst_include_end_dfu_boot

Debugging U-Boot
----------------

See :ref:`Common Debugging environment - OpenOCD<k3_rst_refer_openocd>`: for
detailed setup information.

.. warning::

  **OpenOCD support since**: v0.12.0

  If the default package version of OpenOCD in your development
  environment's distribution needs to be updated, it might be necessary to
  build OpenOCD from the source.

.. include::  k3.rst
    :start-after: .. k3_rst_include_start_openocd_connect_XDS110
    :end-before: .. k3_rst_include_end_openocd_connect_XDS110

To start OpenOCD and connect to the board

.. prompt:: bash $

  openocd -f board/ti_am625evm.cfg
