Introduction
This BSP provides a basis for development, deployment and execution of Compact 7 based applications on the phyCORE-AM335X System on Module (SOM). For detailed information on the various software components included in the release and how to use them, please refer to the Quickstart.
Versioning
Release PD13.2.1_EA1 is based on the following:
- TI Release BSP_WINCE_A8 2.00.00.01
- Windows Embedded Compact 7
This Release is compatible with the following hardware:
| BSP Release Version | BSP Release Date | SOM PCB Version | CB PCB Version |
|---|---|---|---|
| PD13.2.1_EA1 | November 13th, 2013 | 1358.3 | 1359.3 |
| 1358.2 [1] | 1359.2 |
[1] Due to updated RAM timings different software is required to boot the board. Please use BSP Download 1358.2 images that have a modified XLDR version.

What’s Not Supported
This BSP Release does not support the following components:
- Power Management
- PRUS
Fixed in this Release
- SD card: Implement Card detection interrupt
- Splashscreen could now be flashed into NAND Flash through SD Card
- MPU Frequency is raised to 720 MHz
- Ethernet:
Device hangs after disconnect the Ethernet cableIf the device boot up without connected Ethernet cable it takes 40 seconds more time to boot.
- Boot time optimized
New in this Release
- Headless support
- RAM timing selection support
Known Issues
- Sometimes USB OTG Active Sync is not starting. Reboot is necessary
- Audio: For some reasons Audio is not working at startup
Workaround: Disable the Windows system sounds to get Audio working on running system.
Upgrade and Compatibility Information
To upgrade to a new BSP release, use the Windows uninstaller to remove the existing BSP via Start->Control Panel->Uninstall a program. Then install the new BSP using the Microsoft installer package or executable, e.g., <device name>-Compact7_BSP_Source-PDxx.x.x.msi.
Dependencies
