Re: [beagleboard] BBB with own cape stops working
Hello, thanks a lot for that hint. Currently I connected the SYS_Reset Pin of the Beagle to the reset pin of the Atmega. This will disable all drivers until the BBB is up and running, right? Or is there any other thing I can do till the beagle is up? Am Freitag, 19.

For example, 2_D0_RX signal goes to the SYS_BOOT_8 of the BBB which must be Low at power up. Please check every other your signal likewise, if they do not prevent the BBB from booting. Normally people just disable all the drivers on the cape until the BBB is up and running.

Re: [beagleboard] BBB with own cape stops working
Your regulator must be turned off until the VDD_3V3 rail comes up. Right now it comes up almost immediately as it is powered from either the expansion header or a weirdly designed 5V DC input. The idea of gating the ground to control power will not work as you already have a DC path to ground, assuming that all of your grounds are connected together as they should be.

Re: [beagleboard] BBB with own cape stops working
Thanks for your quick answer and very helpful feedback! I am not sure if I understood right. Currently I have to options to power the cape. 1. Use the cape without the Beagle -- Power supply over the FTDI connector and solder header Pin2-Pin3 connected on the MCP1703 side. -- 5V solder header Pin1-Pin2 connected -- 3,3V will be generated with the MCP1703 from the input voltage VIN 2. Use the cape with the Beagle -- Power supply all over the beagle headers and solder header Pin1-Pin2 connected on the MCP1703 side. Therefore no voltages will be generated by the cape itself... -- 5V solder header Pin2-Pin3 connected. 5V from the beagle. -- 3,3V from the beagle Therefore the atmega`s can only power up when the 3.3v supply of the header is available. The 5v supply is always on thats right. But 5v is only used for LED`s and the Piezo Buzzer and this parts are disconnected with a BC817 from ground. Yes all wires which are named as GND are connected. Do you really see an issue on that? What needs to be changed? Am Montag, 15.

Re: [beagleboard] BBB with own cape stops working
The FTDI connector will not be connected when the cape is connected to the beagle. All GND signals are connected to each other and they are all connected to the beagle.

Re: [beagleboard] BBB with own cape stops working
You are right, there must be something wrong but I do not know what. I understood that the blocking capacitor is missing.

I am currently developing a radio cape which has two Atmega328p, 3xRFM69 radio modules and some other small things on it. You can find the circuit in the following link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8Fq4yYMgG7uQ3k3WkJUbG9icWs/ edit?usp=sharing When I use this cape on by BBB, the Beagle stopped working during operation. I tried to reboot it but it now do not boot up like the issue described in the Beagle Wiki as Improper Power Down. I never unplugged the power cord from the board. It just stopped working. When the cape is connected to the beagle the components are sourced by VDD_3V3Exp and VDD_5V. So no external power supply. I additionally just have the Uart4/5 connected to my circuit I would really appreciate your help. Because I really do not understand what the matter is!

Re: [beagleboard] BBB with own cape stops working
I am not sure what you mean with to disable the buffer before until you come up. Directly connect the Beagle SYS_RESETn pin to the pin 29 of the Atmega`s? What would be the positive effect by using the SYS_5V. I think it is directly connected to the Beagle DC plug. So, it can drive more current? Two more ideas: * would it be helpful to add a 0,1µF capacitor to the beagle voltage supply pins on the header, between VDD_3v3 and Gnd very close to the beagle headers? * would it be better to completely supply my cape from SYS_5V and create the 3v for the Atmegas and the other components on the cape with the MCP1703?

You could switch to SYS_5V, no reason not to.As you only have four wires to the BBB, you might try adding some isolation there, and use the RESET signal to disable the buffer before until you cone up. There may be something else in your setup. But, schematic wise I don't see anything else. Gerald On Mon, Sep 15, 2014 at 4:09 PM, mitterma...@gmail.com javascript: wrote: Yes of course.
