Overview

The AM263x microcontroller (MCU) software is a collection of software development kits (SDK) providing a software platform for TI embedded processors with easy setup and fast out-of-the-box access to examples, benchmarks and demonstrations. These softwares accelerate application development schedules by eliminating creating basic system software functions from scratch.

The AM263x software support has:

  • MCU-PLUS-SDK-AM263X: MCU plus SDK provides foundation software and building blocks to develop an application on AM263x MCU. The SDK includes support for R5F and M4 cores, examples, drivers and bootloaders.
  • INDUSTRIAL-COMMUNICATIONS-SDK-AM263X: industrial communications SDK enables real-time industrial communications for TI processors. Industrial communication is typically handled by the programmable real-time unit industrial communication subsystem (PRU-ICSS). Industrial communications SDK includes MCU-PLUS-SDK-AM263X
  • MOTOR-CONTROL-SDK-AM263X: motor control SDK contains examples, libraries and tools to develop RTOS- and no-RTOS-based applications enabling real-time communication for position sense from motors, and real-time control libraries for ARM R5F CPU and related peripherals. This SDK includes MCU-PLUS-SDK and INDUSTRIAL-COMMUNICATIONS-SDK
  • TIFS and Key Writer Package: TI Foundational Security (TIFS) is add on package for MCU-PLUS-SDK for development of SDKs on Security enabled devices providing Root of trust with Customer provisioned keys. Additionally it provides crypto drivers, security services for boot, debug, run-time OTP services and key management. Key writer utility will help customers to provision customer keys and transitioning  the Secure device life cycle from HS-FS (non secure variant without security) to HS-SE (production variant with security enabled). 

The exact content of the SDKs depends on the capabilities of the device, but all devices share common application programming interfaces (APIs) and build on existing proven software components to ensure reliability and quality. The software components are fully tested to ensure that they work together with the Code Composer Studio™ integrated development environment (CCSTUDIO).

Features
  • FreeRTOS™ and no-RTOS support on Arm® Cortex® R5F
  • Device drivers for system-on-a-chip (SoC) and evaluation module (EVM) peripherals
  • Bootloaders for different boot media like universal asynchronous receiver-transmitter (UART) and quad serial peripheral interface (QSPI) flash
  • Tight integration with tools
    • SysConfig tool integration for generating system initialization code for pinmux, peripheral and clock configuration
    • Code Composer Studio (CCSTUDIO) integrated development environment (IDE) integration with CCSTUDIO projects for all examples
    • TI resource explorer (TIREX) integration for browsing the SDK from within CCSTUDIO or web browser
    • Flashing tools to flash applications and bootloaders to flash media

  • Includes support for R5F cores, examples, drivers and bootloaders
  • Exact content of SDK depends on capabilities of the device, but all devices share common applicaion programming interfaces (APIs) and build on existing proven software components to ensure reliability and quality
  • Fully tested software components ensured to work together with Code Composer Studio™ integrated development environment (CCSTUDIO)
