I was under the impression, and quite incorrectly that each IPU mentioned in the TRM was a single processor. When in fact each IPU is a subsystem with 2 M4 cores, not singles. Which is good news after all. And dahm, this newer processor sure is getting complex. Seeing mention in the TRM to read other documents in relation to the various different cores. Like you eluded to above Robert. heh. Read the C6000 TRM, M4 TRM, plus what else ? On top of the 7483 pages already in the AM572x TRM . . .heh lots of reading to do . . .
