Device Specific Notes for v1.18.0

AM64

• Changed package graphic to show all balls.
• Updated dtsi file to latest standard
• Renamed “USB 3.0” use case to “USB Superspeed”
• Resolved USB0_DRVVBUS/GPIO1_79 (BALL T14) not being included in generated files.

Known Issues

• GPMC0_FCLK_MUX is included in the SYSTEM group rather than GPMC.
• Saved files that include GPMC0_CLKLB will may fail to load. This can be resolved by editing the .syscfg file and removing any lines that include “iGPMC1.CLKLB”.
• GPIO0_64,GPIO0_65, and GPIO0_70 pull select option is disabled despite having a pull available.
• GPI01_80,81,82,83,84,85,86,87 Are shown as IO, these are General Purpose Inputs only, no output function is supported.
• VDDSHV1 is incorrectly named PRG1. This should be PRG0
• VDDSHV2 is incorrectly named PRG2. This should be PRG1
• Signals a grouped by function/domain, not power domain. It is therefore possible to encounter voltage conflict warnings with some peripherals.

AM62x

• Added additional device pins and comments to device view
• Updated dtsi file to latest standard

Known issues

• The PRUSS interfaces are listed as PRU_ICSSM0.
• Not all PADCONFIG bits are supported by the tool
• MMC use cases may have duplicates. This is to maintain compatibility with previous save files.
• GPIO1 only has 52 signals but tool shows 92 when GPIO1 is the selected peripheral instance.
• Signals a grouped by function/domain, not power domain. It is therefore possible to encounter voltage conflict warnings with some peripherals.
• GPIO1_31 is missing “pull” option
• AUDIO_EXT_REFCLK0/1 pins cannot be set as input. Workaround is to edit the generated files.

AM62A

• Add additional pins and comments to Device view
• Updated dtsi output to latest format.
• Corrected DDRSS “all pins” use case to include all pins.
• Added pull and RX options to AUDIO_EXT_REFCLK0/1 signals in system group.

Known issues

• Not all PADCONFIG bits are supported by the tool
• MMC use cases may have duplicates. This is to maintain compatibility with previous save files.
• GPIO1 only has 52 signals but tool shows 92 when GPIO1 is the selected peripheral instance.
• Signals a grouped by function/domain, not power domain. It is therefore possible to encounter voltage conflict warnings with some peripherals.
• GPIO1_31 is missing “pull” option

AM62P

• Initial release

Known issues

• Not all PADCONFIG bits are supported by the tool
• GPIO0_31 incorrectly shows no pull available

66AK2Gx/AM65x/AM335x/AM437x/AM438x/AMIC110/AMIC120/

• Updated dtsi output to latest format.

System Requirements

• Free Disk Space - 500MB
• Memory - 4GB
• OS - Windows 8/10/11 (64-bit), 64-bit Linux Distribution based on CCS requirements here, MacOS

Installation Instructions

The update can be applied to Code Composer Studion using the “Check for Updates” menu item. The standalone version of SysConfig can be updated by downloading and running the new installer.

Users of the cloud-based tool can browse to https://dev.ti.com and select the SysConfig tile on the portal page.

Getting Started

Software configuration with the SysConfig tool works in conjunction with a TI SDK. To see how this works, it is easiest to start with a CCS installation and an SDK for the device family you are using. Please refer to the device specific documentation included in the SDK for your device family. In general, you would start by importing an example from the SDK and open the the .syscfg file within CCS.

SysConfig may also be used as a low-level pinmux configuration tool. In this use case, you can start with the standalone SysConfig installer. Start the tool, please select the device, part, and package you are working with. You do not need to select a software product (IE SDK) unless you are using the tool for software configuration.

Importing TI PinMux Tool Projects

The SysConfig tool can open existing TI PinMux tool projects and convert these projects to the new .syscfg file format. Once converted, the project can only be saved in the new .syscfg file format.
