Overview

The SK-AM62B-P1 starter kit (SK) evaluation module (EVM) is a stand-alone test and development platform built around the AM62x system-on-a-chip (SoC). AM62x processors are comprised of a quad-core 64-bit Arm®-Cortex®-A53 microprocessor and single-core Arm Cortex-M4F MCU.

SK-AM62B-P1 is the newest version of SK-AM62, which includes the TPS64219/20 PMIC on-board that is designed to enable power efficient portable and stationary applications. Additionally, the SK-AM62B-P1 is security enabled which allows for secure boot, debug security and firewalls.

SK-AM62B-P1 allows the user to experience a dual-display feature with optional 3D GPU through high-definition multimedia interface (HDMI) over dots per inch (DPI) and low-voltage differential signaling (LVDS), as well as industrial communication solutions using serial, Ethernet, USB and other interfaces.

SK-AM62B-P1 can be used for display applications (e.g., human machine interface (HMI) and control panel) with either an HDMI display and/ or an external LVDS panel, up to 2K 60fps resolution. Its powerful Arm performance, up to quad-A53 at 1.4 GHz with rich industrial interfaces, offers good control and communication capabilities for a wide range of applications, such as programmable logic controllers (PLC), automation control, EV charging, medical, or building automation systems.

In addition, SK-AM62B-P1 can communicate with other processors or systems and act as a communication gateway. It can directly operate as a standard remote I/O system or simple sensor connected to an industrial communication network. The embedded emulation logic allows for emulation and debugging using standard development tools such as the Code Composer Studio™ integrated development environment (IDE) (CCSTUDIO). Reference software for many applications can be downloaded from AM62x Development Portal.

During custom board design, customers tend to reuse the SK design files and make edits to the design file. Alternatively customers reuse some of the common implementations including the SOC, memory and communication interfaces. Since the SK is expected to have additional functionalities, customers optimize the SK implementation to suit their board design requirements. While optimizing the SK schematics, errors get introduced into the custom design that could cause functional, performance or reliability issues. When optimizing customers have queries regarding the SK implementation resulting in design errors.  Many of the optimization and design errors are common across designs. Based on the learnings and data sheet pin connectivity recommendations, comprehensive  Design Notes (D-Note:), Review Notes (R-Note:) and Cad Notes (Cad Note:) have been added near each section of the SK schematic that customers could review and follow to minimize errors. Additional files as part of the design downloads have been included to support customer evaluation.
