Abstract

The Jacinto 7 family of devices support multiple internal memories to achieve the best in class system latency, bandwidth, and functional safety requirements for a large number of automotive and industrial applications. The device-specific Data Sheet along with the Technical Reference Manual (TRM) can provide a detailed overview of the different kinds of memories in the device and their intended usage.

This application note is specific to TDA4VM and gives a brief overview of the different memory types and a typical use case for which it may be used along with the Software Development Kit (SDK) careabouts.
