netc_psi_vsi_message#
Overview#
The Multicore NETC PSI-VSI demo application demonstrates how to set up projects for individual cores on a multicore system. In this demo, the primary core use NETC PSI to send/receive frames. It also releases the secondary core from the reset. The secondary core toggles an on-board LED indicating that the secondary core is running and uses NETC VSI to send/receive frames.
Supported Boards#
MIMXRT1180-EVK
Hardware requirements
Mini/micro USB cable
MIMXRT1180-EVK board
Personal Computer
Board settings
Populate R469 and set reset pin as open-drain to complete the PHY hardware reset properly.
Prepare the Demo
Connect a USB cable between the host PC and the OpenSDA USB port on the target board.
Open a serial terminal with the following settings:
115200 baud rate
8 data bits
No parity
One stop bit
No flow control
Download the program to the target board.
Either press the reset button on your board or launch the debugger in your IDE to begin running the demo.
Running the demo
When the demo runs successfully, the log would be seen on the OpenSDA terminal like:
NETC PSI VSI transfer from the Primary Core!
Copy Secondary core image to address: 0x303c0000, size: 22295
NETC Switch frame loopback example start.
Wait for PHY link up...
Starting Secondary core.
The secondary core application has been started.
VSI EP initialization succeeded.
