Release Information
PROCESSOR SDK LINUX AM62X
The Processor SDK Linux for AM62X is a software package from Texas Instruments that gives developers everything needed to build and run applications on TI embedded processors. It is designed for Linux-based systems and includes pre-built demos, benchmarks, and development tools to help you get started quickly. The SDK works consistently across TI's processor family, so code and tools developed for one device can be reused on others with minimal rework.
Latest Development Downloads – CI/CD
In addition to official SDK releases, TI provides periodic builds available for download. These builds are generated automatically and include the latest bug fixes and new features as soon as they are merged into the code base without waiting for the next scheduled SDK release. If you hit a bug during development, a periodic CI/CD build may already contain the fix. This is intended for local development use and lets you keep moving without being blocked by an open issue. The periodic downloads is not a replacement for the official Processors SDK releases which have full documentation, training and support.
