Boot Modes

The boot mode for the AM62x-Low power SK EVM board is defined by two banks of switches SW3 and SW4 or by the I2C buffer connected to the Test automation connector. This allows for AM62x SoC Boot mode control by either the user (DIP Switch Control) or by the Test Automation connector.

All the bits of switch (SW3 & SW4) have week pull down resistor and a strong pull up resistor as shown in below picture. Note that OFF setting provides a low logic level (‘0’) and an ON setting provides a high logic level (‘1’).

GUID-20230616-SS0I-2JD5-RL0J-DP64GD5RRBTJ-low.png

The boot mode pins of the SoC have associated alternate functions during normal operation. Hence isolation isprovided using Buffer IC’s to cater for alternate pin functionality. The output of the buffer is connected to the bootmode pins on the AM62x Low Power SK EVM. The output is enabled when the bootmode is needed during a reset cycle.

The input to the buffer is connected to the DIP switch circuit and to the output of an I2C buffer set by the test automatio ncircuit. If the test automation circuit is going to control the bootmode, all the switches will manually be set to the OFF position. The bootmode buffer should be powered by an always ON power supply to ensure that the bootmode remains present even if the SoC power is cycled.

Switch SW1 and SW2 bits [15:0] are used to set the SoC Boot mode.

The switch map to the boot mode functions is provided in the tables below.
