ConfigIDEdit

This article describes how the ConfigID is implemented in the products supported by the DESK-MX8M-L Linux Kit.

Moreover, a system is composed of the combination of a SOM and a carrier board. In this case, two ConfigIDs are used to identify the actual board configuration like it was a SOM+carrier board system.

For the sake of simplicity, the first ConfigID is denoted as SOM ConfigID, while the second one is denoted as CB ConfigID:

MITO 8M MiniEdit

As MITO 8M Mini is a system-on-module (SOM), the typical mechanism described here is used.

...
SOM ConfigID#: 00000002
SOM UniqueID#: e317318f:1b1229d4
CB ConfigID#: 0000100a
CB UniqueID#: fb000030:4d8eea2d
Board: MX8MM-Mito8MMini on SBCX
...

ORCAEdit

As ORCA is a system-on-module (SOM), the typical mechanism described here is used.

...
SOM ConfigID#: 00000005
SOM UniqueID#: 0002aaff:8aefcecd
CB ConfigID#: 00001008
CB UniqueID#: da000011:0dd2e72d
Board: MX8MP-Mito8MPlus on SBC ORCA
...

Generally speakingEdit

  • SOM ConfigID is used to identify the configuration of the basic features of the SOM
  • CB ConfigID is used to identify the peripherals and the I/O interfaces.


NXP silicon manufacturer guarantees that processors UIDs (a.k.a. SOM UniqueID# on DESK-MX8M-L) to be unique over the whole MX8M family
