This document describes the known exceptions to the functional specifications for the OMAP-L137
Low-Power Applications Processor. For more detailed information, see the OMAP-L137 Low-Power
Applications Processor data manual (literature number SPRS563).
1.1
Device and Development Support Tool Nomenclature
To designate the stages in the product development cycle, TI assigns prefixes to the part numbers of all
OMAP processors and support tools. Each commercial OMAP platform member has one of three prefixes:
X, P, or null (no prefix). Texas Instruments recommends two of three possible prefix designators for its
support tools: TMDX and TMDS. These prefixes represent evolutionary stages of product development
from engineering prototypes (TMDX) through fully qualified production devices/tools (TMDS).
Device development evolutionary flow:
X
Experimental device that is not necessarily representative of the final device's electrical
specifications
P
Final silicon die that conforms to the device's electrical specifications but has not
completed quality and reliability verification
NULL
Fully-qualified production device
Support tool development evolutionary flow:
TMDX
Development-support product that has not yet completed Texas Instruments internal
qualification testing
TMDS
Fully-qualified development-support product
X and P devices and TMDX development-support tools are shipped against the following disclaimer:
"Developmental product is intended for internal evaluation purposes."
TMS devices and TMDS development-support tools have been characterized fully, and the quality and
reliability of the device have been demonstrated fully. TI's standard warranty applies.
Predictions show that prototype devices (X or P) have a greater failure rate than the standard production
devices. Texas Instruments recommends that these devices not be used in any production system
because their expected end-use failure rate still is undefined. Only qualified production devices are to be
used.

NOTES:
A. Non-qualified devices are marked with the letters "X" or "P" at the beginning of the device name.
Each silicon revision uses a specific revision of the CPU and the C674x Megamodule. The CPU revision
ID identifies the silicon revision of the CPU. Table 1 lists the CPU and C674x Megamodule revision
associated with each silicon revision. The CPU revision can be read from the REVISION_ID field of the
CPU Control Status Register (CSR). The C674x Megamodule revision can be read from the REVISION
field of the Megamodule Revision ID register (MM_REVID) located at address 0181 2000h.
The ROM code revision can be read from address location 0x1170 0008h. Table 1 shows the ROM code
revision for each revision of the device.

Advisory 1.0.1 — ARM Data Cache in Write-Back Mode is Not Functional: Must Use Write-Through or
Non-Cached Mode
Advisory 1.0.1
ARM Data Cache in Write-Back Mode is Not Functional: Must Use Write-Through
or Non-Cached Mode
Revision(s) Affected
1.0
Details
The ARM926 subsystem allows data memory regions to be write-back cachable,
write-through cachable, or non-cached. On this device revision, the Write-Back mode is
not functional; therefore, Write-Through or Non-Cached mode must always be used.
Workaround(s)
Only the Write-Through or Non-Cached mode can be used. Write-Through mode is
preferred for better performance. The cache operation is controlled using the C and B
bits in page or section descriptors. For operation in Write-Through mode, the C and B
bits (bits 3:2 in the descriptor) must be set to a value of 10b.
The following is example code using a section descriptor to create a table entry for the
first 1MB of external SDRAM on EMIFB as write-through cachable:
LDR r1, SDRAM0_ADDR
LDR r2, SDRAM0_DATA
STR r2, [r0, r1, LSL#2]
offset * 4
SDRAM0_ADDR
.word
SDRAM0_DATA
.word
; table offset for SDRAM0 region
; descriptor pattern for SDRAM0 region
; store the table entry at TTB base + table
0x00000C00
0xC0000CFA
For more information on ARM data cache modes and how to configure them, refer to the
ARM926EJ-S™ Technical Reference Manual available at www.arm.com/documentation.
Chapter 4 of the ARM926EJ-S™ Technical Reference Manual provides details about
cache operations on the ARM926EJ-S processor.
Section descriptor: A section descriptor provides the base address of a 1MB block of
memory. Figure 2 shows the format of a section descriptor.
