Problem migrating from i.MX6 Dual Lite to Quad

We have a board in production which uses a Dual Lite (MCIMX6U5DVM10AC).  The boards are strapped to boot via SD Card and are functioning normally.  For a future project we built three with a Quad (one with a MCIMX6Q5EYM12AD, two with a MCIMX6Q5EYM10AD).  We did not make any other changes to the board.  Both the main and RTC oscillators run but the boards do not boot.  JTAG (via a SEGGER j-link) connects correctly on the Dual Lite.  On the Quads it seems to correctly identify the internal JTAG devices and their correct IDs but then it fails to connect.  Note that the Quads that we use have a different die revision than the Dual Lites.  In theory this shouldn't make any difference but we have had some issues with different die versions of the i.MX6 Ultra Lite in the past so we aren't ready to completely dismiss this possibility.  For further comparison we tried it with a Wandboard Quad (MCIMX6Q5EYM10AC -- note this also has the earlier die revision) and it worked fine.  The output from JLinkExe is below for both our board with a Quad (AD) and the Wandboard Quad (AC).

In both the Dual Lite and Quad on our board VDDARM_IN is connected to VDDARM23_IN (1.35V, pins H14, J14, K9, K14, L9, L14, M9, M14, N9, N14, P9, P14, R9, R14, T9, and U9) and VDDARM_CAP is connected to VDDARM23_CAP (H11, H13, J11, J13, K11, K13, L11, L13, M11, M13, N11, N13, P11, P13, R11, and R13).

Any insights as to what may be causing these issues would be appreciated.

*** J-Link V6.20g J-Link V6.20g Warning ***

You are using a J-Link which does not have intelligence

for the selected CPU core (Cortex-A9) in the firmware.

Intelligence in the firmware enables J-Link

to generate sequences for the CPU core.

Without this feature, all sequences are generated by the PC.

Intelligence in the firmware allows higher target interface speeds

and significantly enhances both speed and stability of the

communication with the target CPU.

You can use this J-Link with your target CPU, but we recommend

using a newer model of J-Link / J-Trace.

Hi Andrew

for migration guidelines one can look on AN4397

Common Hardware Design for i.MX 6Dual/6Quad and i.MX 6Solo/6DualLite

https://www.nxp.com/docs/en/application-note/AN4397.pdf 

for jtag Chapter 7 Configuring JTAG Tools attached  i.MX6 System Development User’s Guide

Best regards
