The AM62D processor from the Sitara™ MPU
family is targeted for applications needing high-performance Digital Signal Processing. Some
of these applications include:
- Audio: Automotive premium amplifier and professional audio
- Radar and Radio: Aerospace and Defense
- Sonar: Marine equipments
- Ultrasound: Medical equipments
- Instrumentation: Current, Voltage, other signals: Test and Measurement
Key cores on the device include the Arm® Cortex®-A53 and C7000™ (“C7x”)
scalar and vector DSP core from Texas Instruments, a dedicated Matrix Multiplication
Accelerator (MMA), along with an isolated MCU island. All protected by industrial and
automotive grade safety and security hardware accelerators.
DSP Core Overview: the C7504 core
from C7x family provides up to 40GFLOPS of DSP compute. It achieves 4x to 8x or more
performance compared to the previous generation C66x DSP core. Some of the key features
includes:
- 256-bit fixed- and floating-point DSP
vector core
- Single-cycle latency to access L2
memory via Streaming Engine
- Improved control code efficiency
- True 64-bit machine with 64-bit memory
addressing and single-cycle 64-bit base arithmetic operations
Integration Overview: along with C7x
DSP core, the AM62D SoC integrates up to Quad Arm® Cortex®-A53 providing additional
16.8KDMIPS compute and HLOS flexibility of Linux or Real-Time Operating System (RTOS). Up to
two Arm® Cortex®-R5F subsystems enable low-level, timing critical processing tasks to leave
the Arm® Cortex®-A53 and DSP core’s unencumbered for applications. Integrated diagnostics
and safety features support operations up to SIL-2 and ASIL-B levels while the integrated
security features protect data against modern day attacks. The AM62D device also offers a
3-port Gigabit Ethernet switch with Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) to enable audio
networking features such as, Ethernet Audio Video Bridging (eAVB) and Dante, while
peripherals like the McASP, enable multi-channel I2S and TDM Audio inputs and outputs.
