I think BeagleV is different enough that having a separate group will make 
things less confusing.

Really pushing Type-C for that, though it isn’t daughterboard friendly.

Choosing TagConnect for future boards. A bit more expensive to add an
adapter, but at least no soldering.

Re: [beagleboard] BeagleV?

2021-01-14 Thread Raul Rathmann
I totally get it on the Beaglebone form-factor and continuing support for 
it. I have Beaglebone AI format-type solutions I have to support on the 
software side and the Mech. and Elec. engineers in my group would probably 
devise some kind of torture system and install it in my cubicle if I pushed 
a radically different form factor "just because". I was really only 
parroting what I've observed with the other groups like RPi and the Jetson 
stuff - they seem to be partly going for an industrial direction in a "mass 
quantities" kind of way, doesn't mean that's what the Beagleboard group 
should do at all.

The possibility of expanded I/O would be great to see and PCIe would be 
fantastic even over a "non-standard" connection. I'd also add a vote for a 
populated JTAG connection, or at least one that one that isn't too involved 
to install.

Yeah, the PRUs are there, but hidden I guess for "support" reasons. I think
TI isn't offering the firmware loads to support industrial protocols on
this chip to the public. TI already makes a carrier board SOM.  I want to
make sure those people who have invested in the BeagleBone form-factor get
pay-off with upgraded processing. I'm sure there is lots more that could be
done with the TDA4VM. I'm going to try to see if I can at least get a
fairly high-speed ribbon cable brought off, but things like PCIe will need
to be muxed across type-C in this form-factor as best I can tell.

Re: [beagleboard] BeagleV?

2021-01-13 Thread Raul Rathmann
Yes,  what Vinicius said:

>From TD4VM doc at: https://www.ti.com/product/TDA4VM

7.11.5.24 PRU_ICSSG
The device has integrated two identical PRU_ICSSG subsystems (PRU_ICSSG0 
and PRU_ICSSG1). The programmable nature of the PRU cores, along with their 
access to pins, events and all device resources, provides flexibility in 
implementing fast real-time responses, specialized data handling 
operations, custom peripheral interfaces, and in offloading tasks from the 
other processor cores in the device.  

That TD4VM is a real beast. I really look forward to being able to use the 
64-bit ARM cores as the 32-bit Linux world seems to be fading a bit. I also 
use the PRUs for low-level I/O, need that hard real-time access.

I would really like to see a bunch more I/Os available. The Beaglebone 
format is nice size-wise but really seems to constrict access to more of 
the IO goodness.

Maybe a carrier-board format similar to Pi Compute or Jetson?

 a path to production. We still have a roadmap for BeagleBone!

 So, I'll share what I should have shared before, but am still ironing 
 out details on schedule as we are executing this...

 There's a minor tweak to BeagleBone AI rev A1a to rev A2, but I'm not 
 sure if it'll go into full production as we have started a rev B with the 
 TDA4VM device from TI. It jumps to A72s and has better software support 
 for 
 the AI accelerators.

 One project I'm most excited about is an update to BeagleBone Blue (rev 
 C, rev B used the smaller SIP but had unrelated issues that never got 
 resolved and therefore never got released). I need some more stuff to be 
 released from TI to share more details there, but the motor drive 
 capability will be boosted to enable direct drive of BLDC quadrotors and 
 3-phase steppers.

 And, I'm very, very excited about BeagleConnect technology being worked 
 on at https://github.com/jadonk/beagleconnect based on TI CC1352. This 
 still has a long way to productize, but it is really interesting tech!

 We also have some cool stuff being worked by BeagleBoard Compatible 
 makers in the BeagleBone space. For that matter, SeeedStudio BeagleBone 
 Green Gateway hasn't been out very long.

 Anyway, the short answer is BeagleV an in-addition-to-BeagleBone thing, 
 not moving away from it.

 If interested in BeagleV, please register your interest at BeagleV.org. 
 If you already did so with Seeed, no need to replicate.

 I got a mail message from seeed that introduced the BeagleV.

 Although I am very hopeful for a complete opensource hardware and
 software platform, I noticed that the pin-layout and the compatibility of
 the ARM-Beagleboards has been abandoned.

 I also noticed on the specs that the GPIO pins could be used for any
 kind of communication protocol, be it UART, SPI, SDIO etc.

 I am currently using 3 UART ports on a BeagleBone to communicate with
 some peripherals.

 Would that still be possible in the new design?

 I also noted the RS485, or Canbus was not described in the IO.

 Can anyone involved in the design comment on these observations?
 (Why abandon the old pin layout, how to implement three UARTS or 2
 I2C's, and why no CANBus  availability)

I have the same question as you Daniel,
the PRU in my opinion is one of the most killer feature of beaglebone and
I'm already using BBAI Pru and the 4 PRU's on AI is extremely welcome.
Jason, any chance to have PRU with this revision 2 BBAI board?

The TDA4VM doesn't have PRU's.   Does that mean use of PRU's is now

Are you talking about BeagleConnect Freedom? I am working on a cape that
would include the CC1352 as well, but, for now, you'd connect the
BeagleConnect Freedom to any Linux board over USB and run the wpanusb
driver (still needs to be mainlined). So, the BeagleConnect Freedom can act
as either a device or a gateway. Right now, they are 2 different firmware
loads.

Yes.

I think the things to figure out are if we can:
* Increase RAM
* Add CSI signals/connectors
* Bring PCIe over Type-C as an alt mode (some devices are just better 
interfaced over PCIe than USB) 
* Add USB-SS to the Type-A connector
* Add an alternate power connector (capes and USB shouldn't be the only way 
to power, but barrels are too big for this design)

Re: [beagleboard] BeagleV?

15.4 support that's huge. Is the TI SUB GHz radio on  a cape?Our neighborhood 
gas meters were recently updated with a product I worked on that product had  
an older TI radio and was based on a Renesas controller.This alternative 
positions TI to possibly offer a turn key replacement for that product  beyond 
porting the app to Linux. 
TI support is way way better than Renesas and that product had reset issues I 
strongly suspect were the Microcontroller

So, I'll share what I should have shared before, but am still ironing out

There's a minor tweak to BeagleBone AI rev A1a to rev A2, but I'm not sure if 
it'll go into full production as we have started a rev B with the TDA4VM device 
from TI. It jumps to A72s and has better software support for the AI 
accelerators.
One project I'm most excited about is an update to BeagleBone Blue (rev C, rev 
B used the smaller SIP but had unrelated issues that never got resolved and 
therefore never got released). I need some more stuff to be released from TI to 
share more details there, but the motor drive capability will be boosted to 
enable direct drive of BLDC quadrotors and 3-phase steppers.

And, I'm very, very excited about BeagleConnect technology being worked on at 
https://github.com/jadonk/beagleconnect based on TI CC1352. This still has a 
long way to productize, but it is really interesting tech!
We also have some cool stuff being worked by BeagleBoard Compatible makers in 
the BeagleBone space. For that matter, SeeedStudio BeagleBone Green Gateway 
hasn't been out very long.

Anyway, the short answer is BeagleV an in-addition-to-BeagleBone thing, not 
moving away from it.
If interested in BeagleV, please register your interest at BeagleV.org. If you 
already did so with Seeed, no need to replicate.

Would that still be possible in the new design?

I also noted the RS485, or Canbus was not described in the IO.
Can anyone involved in the design comment on these observations?(Why abandon 
the old pin layout, how to implement three UARTS or 2 I2C's, and why no CANBus  
availability)
Kind RegardsJohan Henselmans

Hi Jason

The idea on the BBAI is change from am5729 to TDA4VM ?

Re: [beagleboard] BeagleV?

2021-01-13 Thread Jason Kridner
BeagleV is something new in addition to BeagleBoard and BeagleBone
offerings from BeagleBoard.org. It is meant to address the needs coming
from the RISC-V community for a low-cost development board, ultimately with
a path to production. We still have a roadmap for BeagleBone!

So, I'll share what I should have shared before, but am still ironing out
details on schedule as we are executing this...

There's a minor tweak to BeagleBone AI rev A1a to rev A2, but I'm not sure
if it'll go into full production as we have started a rev B with the TDA4VM
device from TI. It jumps to A72s and has better software support for the AI
accelerators.

One project I'm most excited about is an update to BeagleBone Blue (rev C,
rev B used the smaller SIP but had unrelated issues that never got resolved
and therefore never got released). I need some more stuff to be released
from TI to share more details there, but the motor drive capability will be
boosted to enable direct drive of BLDC quadrotors and 3-phase steppers.

And, I'm very, very excited about BeagleConnect technology being worked on
at https://github.com/jadonk/beagleconnect based on TI CC1352. This still
has a long way to productize, but it is really interesting tech!

We also have some cool stuff being worked by BeagleBoard Compatible makers
in the BeagleBone space. For that matter, SeeedStudio BeagleBone Green
Gateway hasn't been out very long.

Anyway, the short answer is BeagleV an in-addition-to-BeagleBone thing, not
moving away from it.

If interested in BeagleV, please register your interest at BeagleV.org. If
you already did so with Seeed, no need to replicate.

seems to say that

All GPIOs can be configured to different functions including but
not limited to SDIO, Audio, SPI, I2C, UART and PWM

so it seems it can handle your application
