8 Replies and 1811 Views WiFi Performance Configs and BSP 2.4-4  1811  8 Started by  Joshua Pagnotta I was wondering if the defconfig.wifi-performance delivered with BSP 2.4-4 was updated and working. I'm assuming not because if I diff it against the standard defconfig in BSP2.4-4 defconfig.wifi-performance still references old u-boots and Linux kernel images whereas defconfig references 2.4-4 files. Also, what in defconfig.wifi-performance is actually changing the configuration to improve performance. The only significant deltas I see are CONFIG_PKG_KERNEL_PRECONFIG='omap3logic_defco...

11 Replies and 1650 Views How to Activate SPI Signals in the BSP  1650  11 Started by  Derek Valleroy Hello, I'm trying to figure out how to activate the SPI pins that I have registered in the kernel. In particular, I need my chip-select pins to go high as soon as they are registered, but it appears they stay low until I open up the SPI device in user space. I am registering the SPI pins in the kernel with a spi_register_board_info() call in the board-omap3logic.c file. I'm using spidev for the SPI. Any suggestions More Info: I have a user space application that opens the SPI device and com...

2 Replies and 1416 Views CAM_D6,GPIO_105 pin access  1416  2 Started by  William Deninger Using Torpedo SOM DM3730-30-2780AKCR-A with SDK board. I have had success setting output level (direction=out, value=0,1) for cam_d3,cam_d4 and cam_d5.  But no success changing cam_6 and cam_d7.  They seem to remain at 0 (GND). Similarly, when injecting a signal onto the line and setting the GPIO direction to 'in', it fails to read back anything other than '0'. I have removed jumpers on JP5 thereby disabling the camera buffer from driving the line, and am monitoring the signal on t...

1 Replies and 1272 Views SD card power  1272  1 Started by  Bret Pollack What would cause the SOM to turn off the 3.3V supply for SD card while we are trying to boot from the SD card Once the power is down I get a long series of SD card read errors, which I expect if there is no power. This only happens with some of our devices. Noise Something else   Thanks Bret

1 Replies and 1337 Views Procuring ISP1763A  1337  1 Started by  Joshua Pagnotta We are interested in upgrading our design to include the two additional host USB ports on the development kit which require the integration of the ISP1763A. We have been unable to find a supplier for this chip without very long lead times (15 weeks) and large minimum buys (1000). Do you have know of any vendors or know of a way to procure this chip more readily

12 Replies and 1685 Views TSC2004IRTJ re-initialization on wakeup from sleep?  1685  12 Started by  mvly I am trying to save power by powering down the TSC2004IRTJ when my screen is off. I noticed that when I power up the screen again, the touch screen is not responsive. Looking at the code in the kernel, there is some initialization code I need to run. Is there a simple way to reinitialize the TSC2004 when I wake up from sleep If so how do I go about doing this   I tried looking into the board-omap3logic-display.c code where all the display things happens.

4 Replies and 1200 Views migrating from DM3730 20-1880AGIR-A to 20-2880AGXR-A  1200  4 Started by  mvly I am in the process of migrating from the 1880AGIR-A to the 2880AGXR-A. From the product brief pdf, the only difference is the Clock Speed.   However in my Hardware design, only the 1880AGIR boots. The 2880AGXR-A does not. It self-reboots over and over when running android.   Is there something I need to change in the u-boot or kernel to make it boot fine

7 Replies and 2569 Views How to use J19 (USB OTG) for USB communication?  2569  7 Started by  Derek Valleroy Hello, Does anyone have advice for using J19 (USB OTG) for communicating with a USB device, like a HID There are forum posts about using this for battery charging, but I need to get actual data transfers working. Other USB ports on the kit go through a USB controller chip, which has driver support in LTIB. However, I couldn't find a configuration in LTIB that supports the J19 (USB OTG) port.  J19 appears to go to the PMIC USB transceiver on the SOM. There is an option for enabling the U...

1 Replies and 1199 Views Detecting Power Loss  1199  1 Started by  Alex Johnson Hey, I am currently working on implementing a kernel module that will be able to react to a sudden power-loss on the system, and quickly perform necessary 'housekeeping' functions in order to cleanly shut down the OS before the few seconds of backup power is depleted. Is there a simple way to detect a loss of power to the Torpedo that I can utilize I'm going through the documentation, but so far I've been coming up empty. Thanks!

3 Replies and 1390 Views Repercussions to Running LTIB as Root  1390  3 Started by  Kyle Cote I know running LTIB as root prompts a warning when you try and build or execute it as root but what are the repercussions of doing so Currently I'm trying to execute an LTIB build on an automated Bamboo build and the scripts that I'm using to execute the commands, such as building LTIB, through a bash script which is run as root. I know a solution would be to add another user with non root privileges and run it as that but would like to stray away from that approach and figure out if I can just...

1 Replies and 1250 Views MAC address of the LAN9221 chip on the baseboard  1250  1 Started by  Derek Valleroy Hello, How can I set the MAC address of the LAN9221 chip on the torpedo baseboard The datasheet of the LAN9221 chip says that it can be configured to use a built-in address, or load one from the EEPROM on power-up. Is there a command-line utility, or maybe an LTIB setting to configure the LAN9221 chip Regards, Derek Valleroy
