The behavior of /dev/ttyS devices has not been changed. **Linux Kernel** ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ * **Kernel Update**: Update to v6.12.57 (tag: v6.12.57-11.02.11-phy6) based on TI SDK v11.02.11 * **VDD_CORE Regulator Fix**: Moved VDD_CORE regulator to correct address in phyCORE SOM device tree * **HDMI Support**: Enabled HDMI support on phyBOARD-Lynx * **OLDI Display Fix**: Fixed OLDI display configuration on phyBOARD-Lynx * **USB Role Switching**: Added support for USB role switching on phyBOARD-Lynx **U-Boot Bootloader** ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ * **Bootloader Update**: Update to U-Boot v2025.01 (tag: v2025.01-11.02.11-phy6) based on TI SDK v11.02.11 * **Device Tree Sync**: Synced U-Boot device trees with kernel v6.12.57-11.02.11 **Issues Fixed** ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ **Known Issues** ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ * **Flashcp Command Failures**: Occasional failures during verification in ``flashcp``. * **CAN FD**: CAN does not work at 125KHz. Software Versioning ------------------- The |local-release-name| software release is largely based off of |vendor|'s |local-ti-sdk-version| Processor SDK Linux release and shares much of the same components and features. .. list-table:: Software Versioning :widths: 50 50 50 :stub-columns: 1 * - Tested Build Environment - Ubuntu 22.04 - `Ubuntu 22.04 Release Downloads `_ * - Linux Kernel - |local-kernel-version| (tag: |local-kernel-tag|) - |local-kernel-repo| * - U-Boot Bootloader - |local-uboot-version| (tag: |local-uboot-tag|) - |local-uboot-repo| * - Yocto - |local-yocto-version| (tag: |local-yocto-tag|) - |local-yocto-repo| Part Number Summary ------------------- .. list-table:: Hardware Summary :widths: 25 25 25 25 :header-rows: 1 * - Part Number - Hardware Description - Configuration Details (SOC / LPDDR4 / eMMC / NOR / Ethernet PHY / RTC / Temperature) - PCB Version * - PCM-081.A0 - |product| SOM - AM62P5 / 4GB / 32GB eMMC / 64MB OSPI NOR / Yes / Yes / Industrial - 1622.0 * - PBA-C-37.A0 - phyBOARD-Lynx AM62Px (phyCORE-AM62Px Carrier Board) - - 1626.0 .. list-table:: Kit Summary :widths: 33 33 33 :header-rows: 1 * - Part Number - Yocto MACHINE - Hardware Description * - |local-default-kit| - phyboard-lynx-am62pxx-1 - PCM-081.A0 + PBA-C-37.A0 **(Default Kit)** Supported Builds ---------------- This release supports multiple builds for different kits, Yocto images and distribution. The follow table lists all supported builds. See Part Number Summary for an detailed explanation of Yocto Machines and associated hardware. .. list-table:: Supported Build Summary :widths: 20 20 20 40 :header-rows: 1 * - Yocto MACHINE - Yocto Image - Yocto Distro - Description * - phyboard-lynx-am62pxx-1 - phytec-headless-image - ampliphy-vendor - Headless image with PHYTEC's ampliPHY vendor distribution for the |local-default-kit| kit. Linux Device Tree Summary ------------------------- This is a summary of how the device tree source files (.dts) and the various include files (.dtsi) are broken down in the kernel. These files describe the hardware in a hierarchical and modular way to the kernel, connecting device drivers to the interfaces brought out by the carrier board. .. list-table:: Linux Device Tree Summary :widths: 25 50 25 :header-rows: 1 * - Hardware Target - Device Tree File Descriptions - Filename * - |local-default-kit| **(Default Kit)** - Default Device Tree (includes the other .dtsi files below) - k3-am62p5-phyboard-lynx.dts * - - Processor .dtsi - This file adds general support for the AM62Px Processor from Texas Instruments - k3-am62p.dtsi * - - SOM .dtsi- This file adds support for your specific SOM's population options - k3-am62p-phycore-som.dtsi If designing your own custom carrier board around the |product| SOM, you will eventually define a custom device tree for your board that includes the .dtsi file for the SOM, which PHYTEC has provided for you. All the BSP changes custom for your application should eventually be consolidated into its own Meta Layer. Supported Boot Sources ---------------------- The |product| allows to load a bootloader from different kind of sources. .. list-table:: Boot Source Summary :widths: 25 25 50 :header-rows: 1 * - Boot Source - Status - Notes * - SD-Card - **Supported** - * - eMMC - **Supported** - * - QSPI/OSPI-Nor Flash - **Supported** - * - Ethernet - **Supported** - Eth0 (X10) * - USB/DFU - **Supported** - USB-C (X8) * - UART - **Supported** - Debug UART (X5) - Can't boot Linux via UART.
