Abstract

This document provides guidelines for the design, development, implementation, and performance metrics of five Ethernet® ports support using R5F and A53 cores available on Texas Instruments' Arm® based system-on-chip (SoC) AM64x and AM243x devices. Currently, the implementation is only available with RTOS based multicore implementation as both Common Platform Ethernet Switch (CPSW3G) and Industrial Communication Subsystem (PRU-ICSSG) Ethernet ports work simultaneously.

Important: Currently, this implementation is not supported in public MCU+ SDK release. Please follow FAQ for more updated details.
