Hello,

We are using imx8x processor and want to do bare metal programming for cortex A-35.
 
Do we have bare metal support for cortex A-35 on the imx 8x processor?
 
If so, please let me know how to proceed to get them.
 
Regards,
Sanjana V

No, NXP doesn't have a bare metal programming support for the i.MX8X series processors.

Hello Artur,

Thank you for the reply.

Is it mandatory to have OS for A-35 core?

This is mandatory to have OS for i.MX8X series processors, since they have so-called System Control Unit (SCU) hardware that manages all the SoC internally and only can be controlled through so-called System Control Firmware (SCFW) interface by OS.
