Device Specific Notes for v1.15.0

AM64x(_beta)

• Added use cases for USB – enables selection of USB2 and/or USB3 and allows USB2 to be selected with SerDes
• Added USB0 RCALIB which was not included in previous release (dedicated pin).
• GPMC0 WAIT1 signal made optional “All Pins” use case to eliminate conflict error.
• MCU_GPIO0_17 pull select option was incorrectly disabled it has been re-enabled.
• MCU_GPIO0_19 pull select option has been disabled.
• All I2C interfaces have pull options disabled.
• The RGMII and RMII interfaces have been merged into CPSW. This is to correct a bug that allowed both RMII1 and RGMII1 to be simultaneously selected. Note that this will break previously saved syscfg files that implemented RGMII and/or RMII . There are two options to resolved this.
  1. Use the previous tool release to remove all RGMII and RMII interfaces and re-save. The updated syscfg file should now successfully load in the new release. Re-add the RGMII/RMII interfaces using the CPSW peripheral and the appropriate use case.
  2. Directly edit the saved syscfg file and remove all lines containing iRGMII or iRMII. The updated syscfg file should now successfully load in the new release. Re-add the RGMII/RMII interfaces using the CPSW peripheral and the appropriate use case.

Known Issues

• Device is named AM64x_Beta. This does not impact operation. The beta suffix will be removed in a future release
• GPMC0_FCLK_MUX is included in the SYSTEM group rather than GPMC.
• GPMC_CLKLB is not used and should not be modified. It will be removed in a future release. Output files will no longer include this signal.
• Saved files that include GPMC0_CLKLB will may fail to load. This can be resolved by editing the .syscfg file and removing any lines that include “iGPMC1.CLKLB”.
• GPIO0_64,GPIO0_65, and GPIO0_70 pull select option is disabled despite having a pull available.

AM62x

• Added support for AMC package
• GPMC0 WAIT1 signal now optional for “All Pins” use case. Eliminates initial conflict error.
• Moved FCLK_MUX from SYSTEM to GPMC interface
• PU/PD removed form Open Drain pins
• PU/PD removed form OLDI pins

Known issues

• The PRUSS interfaces are listed as PRU_ICSSM0.

AM62Ax

• New device

System Requirements

• Free Disk Space - 500MB
• Memory - 4GB
• OS - Windows 8/10/11 (64-bit), 64-bit Linux Distribution based on CCS requirements here, MacOS

Installation Instructions

The update can be applied to Code Composer Studion using the “Check for Updates” menu item. The standalone version of SysConfig can be updated by downloading and running the new installer.

Users of the cloud-based tool can browse to https://dev.ti.com and select the SysConfig tile on the portal page.

Getting Started

Software configuration with the SysConfig tool works in conjunction with a TI SDK. To see how this works, it is easiest to start with a CCS installation and an SDK for the device family you are using. Please refer to the device specific documentation included in the SDK for your device family. In general, you would start by importing an example from the SDK and open the the .syscfg file within CCS.

SysConfig may also be used as a low-level pinmux configuration tool. In this use case, you can start with the standalone SysConfig installer. Start the tool, please select the device, part, and package you are working with. You do not need to select a software product (IE SDK) unless you are using the tool for software configuration.

Importing TI PinMux Tool Projects

The SysConfig tool can open existing TI PinMux tool projects and convert these projects to the new .syscfg file format. Once converted, the project can only be saved in the new .syscfg file format.
