[beagleboard] Re: Can I use GPIO pin that is not provide PWM mode for PWM?

2018-01-18 Thread Adam Saenz
A couple of options to consider; neither are perfect solutions but could 
work ok based on your application:

1) Toggle a GPIO with software, there will be 1-2KHz of jitter and you 
can't guarantee that that will be the maximum jitter you ever see.

2) If the extra PWM signal can be an exact copy of an existing hardware 
based PWM, you could use an ISR to toggle another GPIO anytime the hardware 
PWM transitions.

Re: [beagleboard] Re: Use analogue inputs with 5 or 10 V signal

2017-12-26 Thread Adam Saenz
That circuit will work.  Yes on connecting external ground to GNDA, that
will give you a common reference.  Those resistor values will allow the ADC
to see about 1.78V when the input voltage is 5V, looks like a good place to
start.  As far as resistor values (1k, 1.8k vs 10k, 18k), I'd go with the
1k, 1.8k pair as long as your source circuit can handle sourcing a 2.8k
load (1.7mA max).  If it can't then I'd consider something that gives you a
total resistance of 5-6k.  The 10k/18k pair gives you 28k total, should be
ok but I've had ADCs have trouble working when resistances approach 100k.

Someone mentioned using op amps which is a good choice, as is using an
anti-aliasing filter but since this is a noob type question I figured
starting simpler is a better choice.  You can improve you analog circuit if
you discover your application needs to minimize noise, or is sensitive to
load, etc.  Start simple though.

2017-12-20 Thread Adam Saenz
You will need to use a voltage divider to lower the detectable voltage of 
your 0-5V or 0-10V inputs to a range of 0-1.8V or less.  Google voltage 
divider to see how this is done; sparkfun provides a pretty nice 
explanation of voltage dividers.  If you look at the schematic, an example 
of a voltage divider is done for AIN7 to read the 3.3V supply voltage.  
AIN7 will see is 1.65V when VDD_3V3B is 3.3V.

ADCs are most accurate when the voltage they are reading is stable and free 
from noise or ripple voltages.  Digital circuits (e.g. the processor cor) 
are sources of digital noise so a separate VADC and GNDA are provided to 
minimize the influence of noisy digital sources.   If you look on the 
schematic VDD_ADC is actually connected to VDD_1V8 through a ferrite bead 
(inductor). The ferrite bead is there to block high frequency noise caused 
by the digital circuits, while allowing DC voltages to pass; so VDD_ADC is 
actually connected to 1.8V.  The AM3358 datasheet lists the max voltage 
input of VDD_ADC as 2.1V so you cannot connect a 5V or 10V reference 
directly to it.  It's best to use the existing 1.8V reference and scale the 
analog input voltages you want to measure so they are less than 1.8V.

[beagleboard] Re: Possible for Beaglebone Blue to support a non-wireless Ethernet connection?

2017-11-17 Thread Adam Saenz
You can also get a Robotics Cape for your BBB and it will give you all the 
features of the BBBlue except for the WiFi.  You'll then maintain your 
Ethernet interface.

By the way, the BBBlue uses a PRU for the 4th encoder.  It may be possible 
to use the Robotics Cape software without a Robotics Cape and use the 
appropriate pins on the BBB headers for the 4 channels of encoder (3 
hardware, 1 PRU).  You'll just need to do some level shifting if your 
encoders are higher than 3.3V logic.

[beagleboard] Re: PWM from BeagleBone Blue to external motor controller.

2017-11-14 Thread Adam Saenz
Hi Phil,

Q1)  I would suggest looking at rc_pwm.c which is in the 
Robotics_Cape_Installer source code.  A comment in the code says that there 
are 3 PWM subsystems; subsystem (ss) 1 and 2 are used by the built in motor 
drivers but ss 0 can be accessed from UART1; which leads one to believe is 
the the UART for GPS based on the comment from the PinMux online manual. 
 But the online manual for RoboticsCape says that UART2 (not UART1) is for 
GPS so either the code comment is old/wrong or the documentation is wrong. 
 Looks like a bit of experimenting is required to figure out which UART 
port is the correct one, but my guess would be that UART2 is the correct 
one.  You can then look at rc_motors.c to see how the pwm functions are 
used to configure the pwm subsystem and set duty cycle and frequency.  All 
this should be done after a call to the PinMux API to configure the pins 
for PWM. 

Q2)  What is your level of comfort with electronics modifications?  Then 
motor PWM signals are not mapped directly to a connector but you could 
access them via a hardware hack.  Remove the built in motor driver chips 
and solder in wires to the appropriate pads.  You could also try soldering 
directly to the appropriate built in motor driver pins as well.  In either 
case your soldered in wires should be hot glued or RTV'd in place to 
provide some strain relief.  It's a total hardware hack but it would allow 
you to used the robotics cape software as is.  This is assuming your new 
motor driver also uses 2 extra pins to control direction and braking (CW, 
CCW, short-brake, and stop) same as the TB6612FNG chip.  If it does not 
they you'll have to use the GP0 or GP1 IO pins to provide that 
functionality as your new motor driver needs.  Honestly this approach may 
be better suited for the BBBlack as all required I/O is mapped directly to 
and the header pins; but then you would loose all the other built in 
features of the BBBlue/Robotics cape.

If it were me I would go with the first approach and configure GPS UART2 
for PWM output.  Let me know if you have any question with this approach 
and I can look at the code a bit closer.

Adam

[beagleboard] Re: Connecting two Beaglebone Blacks

2017-11-11 Thread Adam Saenz
I'm assuming you are not taking the cost of the Beaglebones themselves into 
consideration as the 2 would be them most expensive parts of this project.  
Here are three ways of connecting 2 BBB together there are tradeoffs with 
each approach.

1) (not expensive, not the simplest) Connect the 2 boards via a UART 
channel; this will provide point to point communication between the two.  
Your software on each will have to handle all the communication details and 
functionality to receive commands and send files over UART.  There is 
probably code out there to do some of this but you have to integrate it 
together for your application.  Once cable between the two boards and you 
still have your ethernet port available for external connection.  This is 
my least favorite option. 

2) (Simple, not least expensive) Connect the two with a cheap ethernet 
switch.  This allows you to use built in command line functions to control 
and copy files (ssh, scp).  You can get a pretty inexpensive 5 port switch, 
which will maintain the ability to communicate to both BBBs.  TP-Link 
5-Port Fast Ethernet Unmanaged Switch | Plug and Play | Desktop (TL-SF1005D) 

 or Brash Networks 5-Port 10/100 Mbps Full Duplex Desktop Unmanaged Fast 
Ethernet Switch BN-FE105 

 are 
a couple of ethernet switches that are under $10.  You could remove the 
boards from their enclosure if it makes it easier to repackage.  While not 
the least expensive it's really not that expensive either.

3) (Simple, not expensive) You could also connect both with an ethernet 
crossover cable. This would eliminate the need of a switch at the expense 
of losing the ability to connect to them externally via ethernet.  You do 
have the USB ports to connect to them I suppose.  This would allow you to 
use ssh/scp while eliminating the cost of the switch; simple to connect, 
inexpensive to implement. Buhbo 1 ft CAT5e Crossover Cable UTP, Gray Wire

[beagleboard] Re: USB Not Working

2017-10-26 Thread Adam Saenz
Ok, bought a pack of new cables and I now have USB network and mass 
storage.  I was using a cable that came with some Bluetooth headsets.  It 
charges the headsets fine, but I guess the data lines don't work or are not 
even present.  Thanks again for the help.

I have not!  It's the simple stuff that escapes us!  I'll buy a new cable 
and report back on the results.  Thanks for the suggestion.

[beagleboard] USB Not Working

2017-10-24 Thread Adam Saenz
I am not able to see the Beagle Bone Blue as a mass storage device or USB 
Network; I've tried it on a Win7 PC and a Mac with OSX Sierra.  I followed 
the "Getting Started" guide; installed the latest image (Debian 9.2 
2017-10-10 4GB SD IoT) from https://beagleboard.org/latest-images and 
loaded the indicated drivers.

Any advice on what I should try next?  I'd like to have USB Network 
available as a backup to WiFi.

Thanks,

Adam
