SK-AM62

The TI SK-AM62B-P1 starter kit with an AM6234: an AM62x Sitara SoC with four Arm Cortex-A53 cores (Armv8.0-A, 1.4 GHz), a Cortex-M4F and a device-management R5F. It is LabWired's first AArch64 part.

LabWired runs A53 core 0 on its AArch64 core (the A64 instruction set, EL0-EL3, a stage-1 MMU, and the GICv3 and generic timer inside the core), with MAIN_UART0 as the console. Unmodified upstream Zephyr v4.3.0 images for sk_am62/am6234/a53 start at the ELF entry at EL3:

Script Firmware Result
zephyr-hello.yaml samples/hello_world banner + Hello World! sk_am62/am6234/a53 on MAIN_UART0
zephyr-sync.yaml samples/synchronization thread_a / thread_b alternate on virtual-timer interrupts
zephyr-kernel-common.yaml tests/kernel/common 12 suites, 63/63 (atomics, irq_offload, clock, user mode at EL0, …)

Not claimed yet

Cores 1-3 (SMP), the M4F/R5F, UART interrupts (the console is polled), GPIO/LEDs, the boot flow, stage 2, 16/64 KB granules, Armv8.1+ and crypto instructions, and most SIMD/FP arithmetic. SIM-DERIVED: no bench part.
