6. EVM Setup for J722S

This section is intended to give a quick reference of EVM related to SDK usage. Full EVM documentation can be referenced at TDA4VEN, TDA4AEN and AM67 evaluation module.

Important

  • Please refer to the EVM guide and provide the requried type-c power supply 5V-20V, 60-65W

  • Fusion 1 board cannot draw power supply from the EVM, this must be powered by a separate 12V power source

  • By default single RTOS display is mapped to HDMI

6.2.2. UART terminal setup

  • Connect USB cable to Main UART port on the EVM

    • 4 UART ports would be visible at the PC side

    • Port 2 from this is used this for Linux, RTOS UART terminal from A53

  • Setup UART for 115200 baud rate, 8 data bits, no party, 1 stop bit

6.2.3. Boot Modes

Bootmodes are selected using the SW8 and SW9 switches on the common processor board.

6.2.3.1. SD Boot Mode

Following are the switch settings to set the boot mode to SD for common processor board.:

SW3[1-8] = 1100 0010
SW4[1-8] = 0100 0000

Fig. 6.1 MMC/SD Boot Mode

6.2.3.2. No Boot Mode

When you want the binaries to be loaded from a debugger (CCS), the common processor boards has to be set in the NO boot mode.

Following are the switch settings to do the same.:

SW3[1-8] = 1101 1111
SW4[1-8] = 0000 0000

Important

  • Please refer to J722S-EVM BOOT MODES LINK in the MCU-PLUS-SDK documentation for other supported boot modes such as eMMC, OSPI, UART etc.

6.3. Daughter Card information

6.3.1. Fusion daughter card

Fusion daughter card is adapter board to connect 4 camera sensors (IMX390+UB953 serializer) through de-serializer (UB960) available on the Fusion1 daughter card to CSI2RX ports of J722S SoC.

Connect the daughter card to the EVM at J37 40-pin Samtec expansion slot.
