Integrate MIMX8ML8 SDK into custom project

dylanrd — Fri, 08 Aug 2025 11:18:34 GMT

I have created a custom PCB with the imx8mplus processor unit on it. I want to use the NXP SDK to run I2C on the M7 core of the processor. However, when i try to import the downloaded sdk files into my custom project, it never seems to build and I keep getting errors such as that there are unkown types in the header files. Is there a guide on how to use the SDK in a custom project? Is it even possible? I am quite new to this and can not seem to grab my head around this. thanks in advance!

Hi dylanrd

Please refer to the i.MX porting guide. It provides an overview on how to develop a custom i.MX solution from an i.MX BSP release. Including customize kernel changes, U-Boot, memory, and various configurations for a custom hardware solution.
