1.1 Introduction

This technical user’s guide describes the hardware architecture of the SK-AM62-LP EVM, a low-power starter kit evaluation module designed to accelerate development with the AM62x system-on-chip from Texas Instruments (TI™).This versatile platform features a powerful quad-core ARM® Cortex®-A53 processor and two integrated microcontrollers capable of running Embedded Linux and RTOS operating systems, making it ideal for a wide range of industrial automation and monitoring applications. Users can explore rich interface options, including dual-display capabilities (HDMI and LVDS) and robust industrial communication solutions using Ethernet, USB, and serial interfaces. The embedded emulation logic allows for emulation and debugging using standard development tools such as Code Composer Studio™ IDE from Texas Instruments (TI).
