VAR-SOM-AM33 - First Time? Start Here.

Step One: Read Documentations

Please download and read the development kit documentation. on Variscite website:
http://www.variscite.com/products/system-on-module-som/cortex-a8/var-som-am33-cpu-ti-am335x-am3354-am3352

NOTE:
Make sure you read the Quick Start Guide.

Step Two: Setup Linux host PC Development Environment

Set up your development environment.

Setting Development Environment

Step Three: DVK Power Up

Power up the board.
You should have the serial cable connected to the debug port, as describe in the quick start guide
When board boots, make sure you see the u-boot prints on your host PC hyper terminal. You will need to type-in commands in the command prompt late in the development stages

IMPORTANT:
Don't continue without the serial console operating.

Step Four: A quick test with NAND recovery SD-Card

Please follow the below guide to boot DVK with a bootable SD-Card , and burn a complete yocto into NAND-Flash

NAND recovery SD-Card.

Step Five: What next?

Your next step can be one of :

Build a complete Yocto. This guide will help you build a complete Yocto build, resulting in all required binaries to create a full bootable Yocto SD-Card, and all required binaries to burn to NAND-Flash.
- Yocto common build errors

Use your pre-built rescue recovery SD-Card, as-is, to boot system, and start doing applications programming.
- Compiling QT5 application
- Application debugging with Eclipse

Test various interfaces.
- GPIO
- Ethernet
- Audio record/play
- Can-bus
- USB Host
- eMMC
- RTC
- LVDS
- I2C
- Wireless LAN
- Bluetooth
- Backlight
- USB OTG as host
- USB OTG as device
- SPI
- External UART
