Apple Authentication Header

The common processor board has a provision to support Apple authentication interface. In the J721E EVM, the Apple authentication board can be interfaced with J721E SoC in two options: one is module interface and the other is device interface.

Module Interface:

Common Processor board have a 2.54 mm Dual row 10 Pin Receptacle Mfr. Part# 2214BR‐10G.

I2C0 Port of J721E SoC and Reset from GPIO Expander is terminated to this connector. 3.3 V supply is provided to the connector J9.

Table 4-27 lists detailed signal and pin descriptions.

Device Interface:

In this approach Common Processor PCB have a footprint PG‐USON‐8‐1. Apple authentication device will not be assembled to this footprint by default.

Required I2C0, Power, Reset and Ground signals from J721E SoC is routed to this footprint, as shown in Table 4-28.
