Can SemiDrive X9 support AW611？

[LewisLiu]

Hi NXP，

Hope you are well！

I heard SemiDrive X9  doesn't support AW690，have you heard that？

And I would be grateful if you could tell me that can SemiDrive X9 support AW611？

I would appreciate your help.

Dear @LewisLiu 

Please note that AW611 is not yet available to mass market, and should be available in Q1 2023.

On HW side:

- AW690 use the following host HW interfaces: PCIe or SDIO for Wifi, UART for BT

- AW611 use the following host HW interfaces: SDIO for Wifi, UART for BT and SPI for 15.4.

On SW side, NXP provides Linux drivers and Android HAL for both AW690 and AW611.

Looking at SemiDrive X9 webpage, it seems that this host:

- has PCie, SDIO, UART and SPI interfaces

- support Linux and Android

So it should be possible to add AW690 and AW611 support to SemiDrive X9.

NXP is providing Linux AW690 and IW611 Linux drivers (and Andorid HAL). It is then up to SemiDrive or a customer to get the AW690 or AW611 firmwares and driver, and cross compile the AW690 or AW611 driver for SemiDrive X9 host.
