mod_version: This is the number associated with the module type (see table below). AM572x-based PHYTEC SOMs are of the PCM
type. Decimal format.
Module Type Value
PCM 0
PFL 1
PCA 2
Kit
This section is required for all configuration files to specify the names of the kit options for each given configuration file. The number of properties
in this section should match the number specified in the kit_options property of the PHYTEC section above. Each property in this section must be
a number that corresponds to the zero-based index of the kit options specified by the BOM. The value for each property corresponds to the plain-
text name for a kit option. Kit options and their value pair for AM572x-based PHYTEC SOMs are listed in the table below.
Kit Option Index (property) Kit Option Name (value)
0 DDR
1 ECC
2 eMMC/NAND
3 SPI
4 Controller Type
5 EEPROM
6 Ethernet
7 RTC
8 Temperature
Known
This section is required for all configuration files to specify the known (and allowed) kit options and BOM revisions to be used with the EEPROM
Flashtool. Each property in this section is a string that represents a set of kit options and the value for each property represents the maximum
known BOM revision for that set of kit options. A property in this section can be a KSP number, such as KSP01, but the following KSP section mu
be populated with the same KSP number or the EEPROM Flashtool will fail.st
KSP
This section is required for all configuration files that have KSP properties in the above Known section. Each property in this section is a string
that corresponds to the KSP number and the value for each property is a string that represents the kit options for the KSP. The value for all
properties in this section should exactly match with a property in the Known section.
Kit-specific Configuration File Sections:
One section must be added to the configuration file for each entry in the above Kit section. An added section name must exactly match the value
of a property in the Kit section. Each kit-specific configuration file section will describe the kits listed in the 'Kits' section.
EEPROM Data Layout
The PHYTEC EEPROM data layout is a 32-byte structure located at offset 0 on the EEPROM. The following table details each entry in the
structure for the PHYTEC AM572x SOM EEPROM layout.
Byte Name Description
1-4 header PHYTEC EEPROM header. Unsigned 4-
byte integer.
5 api_version PHYTEC EEPROM layout API version.
Unsigned 1-byte integer.
