Figure 3-17. OSPI Interface
3.4.8.4 SPI EEPROM Interface
A 1-Kbit SPI EEPROM (93LC46B) is interfaced to SPI0 port of AM64x processor. It is used for testing purpose.
3.4.8.5 Board ID EEPROM Interface
The AM64x GP EVM includes an onboard EEPROM (U7). This EEPROM holds identifying information include
the EVM version and serial number. PHY MAC ID and other static information about the EVM are also stored in
this memory.
The Board ID memory shall be configured to respond to address 0x50 and 0X51 programmed with the header
description and DDR information of this card. AT24CM01 from Microchip is used, this will be interfaced to I2C0
port of the SOCI2C address of the EEPROM can be modified by driving the A0, A1, A2 pins to LOW. The first
259 bytes of addressable EEPROM memory are preprogrammed with identification information for each board.
The remaining 32509 bytes are available to the user for data or code storage.
