MCIMX6Q6AVT10AC CPU BRINGUP

[dibing]

Hi, I have designed a vehicle infotainment system with using MCIMX6Q6AVT10AC processor.

How can I bring up and test the CPU at the first time.

From where I will get the SPI NOR boot image and Boot mode software for the MCIMX6Q6AVT10AC.

Hi Dibin

for testing one can try baremetal SDK

Github SDK
https://github.com/backenklee/swp-report/tree/master/iMX6_Platform_SDK

for spi-nor images one can look at mfg tools (use mfgtool2-yocto-mx6dqscm-1gb-qwks-internal-spinor.vbs script)

Programmers (Flash, etc.) (2)
SCM-i.MX 6 Series Manufacturing Toolkit

Quick Start Board for SCM-i.MX 6DQ|NXP 

Best regards

Hi igor,

In the design, there is no USB port in the CPU board. So I can't do the Uboot now with the CPU board.

We are planning to test the CPU board by using the NOR flash, by programming the SPI NOR Boot image to the SPI NOR flash externally and connecting to the CPU board. 

How can I get the SPI NOR boot image for imx6 Quad in sabre platform ?

i have got some boot image files, but not sure those are externally programmable to the SPI NOR flash.

We are looking for use the Android 6.
