Figured it out To enable the ADC in the global device tree file (am335x-boneblack.dts) I needed to replace this: 713 tscadc@44e0d000 { 714 compatible = "ti,ti-tscadc"; 715 reg = <0x44e0d000 0x1000>; 716 interrupt-parent = <0x1>; 717

Hello all, I'm trying to get in the habit of enabling all the hardware that I need on the beaglebone black via modifying the main device tree file am335x-boneblack.dts which I derive with the dtc from the am335x-boneblack.dtb file available under /boot/dtbs or /boot/uboot/dtbs in a Debian insta

on the software side of this, where might I find the code that does this now. for instance if I type shutdown at the prompt how does this actually work? is the power sequencing all in the shutdown binary, or the kernel, some of each, or where exactly? there is a shutdown command but what does it

Hi, Please correct me if I'm wrong, but this is my understanding with a 3.14.x or newer kernel: Since it looks like you want continuous sampling you might want to use the hardware buffer in iio. Normally you would use something like the generic_buffer.c [1] as a sample application, but the eve

It depends on what you plan to do with the DDR state and if you want to preserve it. I have never tired it, but it should be possible. You need to look at the datasheet for the TPS65217C for the power sequencing and power down modes available. Gerald On Sat, May 24, 2014 at 5:47 AM, Eric Fort

If you can, and make your IP config static, the interface should come up faster. Also, although I am not sure what it is, I think there is a "fix" to shorten how long it takes for DHCP configs to come up. On Sun, May 25, 2014 at 4:52 AM, Russ Hall wrote: > You are right! I studied the Debian do

You are right! I studied the Debian documentation yesterday and modified my /etc/network/interfaces file, and it did work! It isn't fast to come up, taking about 90 seconds, and probably needs the 5V adapter connected, too. I made exactly the changes you put here. Quotes should be around the nam

You probably measured this short? If so I would advise against such practice, because resistance measurements might exceed (or reverse) the maximum allowed voltage on many pins. Both P9-5 and P9-6 are connected to P1-1, this is the central pin of the power plug You can power the BBB from these
