AM62x MCU+ SDK  09.02.00
Release Notes 09.02.00

Attention
Also refer to individual module pages for more details on each feature, unsupported features, important usage guidelines.
Note
The examples will show usage of SW modules and APIs on a specific CPU instance and OS combination.
Unless explicitly noted otherwise, the SW modules would work in both FreeRTOS and no-RTOS environment.

Device and Validation Information

SOC Supported CPUs EVM Host PC
AM62x M4F, R5F SK-AM62 (referred as am62x-sk in code), SK-AM62-LP (referred as am62x-sk-lp in code), SK-AM62-SIP (referred as am62x-sip-sk in code) Windows 10 64b or Ubuntu 22.04 64b

Features Added in This Release

Attention
DeepSleep low power mode (LPM) is not supported if the DM R5 is used for a general purpose application. This is because when the SoC goes to any LPM, the context of peripherals used by DM R5 will be lost. To use DM R5 for a general purpose application, disable LPM support. Refer Disabling low power mode to know how to disable LPM.
Feature Module
OSPI NOR tuning algorithm is updated for robustness OSPI
APIs to measure DDR usage is added DDR
Memcpy benchmark examples added for MCU R5F and DM R5F Examples
TIFS, RM and PM safety checker library and examples are added Safety Checker
EPWM support is added for M4F EPWM
DDR priming for inline ECC is done through BIST now DDR
GPMC timing parameters updated to improve the performance GPMC
PLL Configuration sequence updated to latest recommendation DM

Dependent Tools and Compiler Information

Attention
It is recommended to use the TIFS version provided with the release for ensuring compatibility between TIFS and device manager. Using the TIFS from different MCU+SDK release is not recomended and may cause TIFS/ DM functionality to break.
