4.1.16. Minimal Platform Development¶
When customers purchase or develop custom boards using the TI AM62x family of SoCs, the heavy integration of the existing code base results in upbringing time that ranges from a few days to several weeks. If a developer would like to create a custom board using TI’s AM62x SoC, they must edit both the device tree and configuration files used for the TI boards to fit their new independent layout with differing peripherals. This application note introduces a minimal configuration to streamline this process and reduce the time of this initial upbringing process to around one day, and as shown in the case study, as little as two hours. Use the application note below to begin minimal platform development for custom boards using the TI AM62x.
