Warning:

DO NOT APPLY THIS UPDATE IF YOU ALREADY HAVE BIOS MCSDK 2.0.3 OR LATER. IT IS ALREADY INCLUDED IN YOUR INSTALLATION

Overview

The PLL initialization settings in the MCSDK 2.0.2 (and earlier) IBL image have been found to cause some memory access failures on a subset of 6670 EVMs. If your board does not experience the failure, performing this update is optional but recommended. C6678 EVMs have not been found to have this issue. No update is necessary for the C6678 EVM.

The following files are provided.

• ibl_c6670_1.0.1.11.zip - Included 2 updated binary files and an updated GEL file.
• emif4.patch - A .patch file that denotes the changes made to the file emif4.c. If you build your own IBL, you will need to apply these changes to your emif4.c, and rebuild.

Installation Instructions
