Any ideas how this compares to the wandboard quad? 4x Cortex-A9 vs 2x Cortex-A15? Also, this would be awesome to setup a small Arm cluster with since it has a decent RAM/core count ratio, gig/e and sata. -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message

[beagleboard] GPIO burnout with Beaglebone black

2014-10-21 Thread sixvolts
I'm having a problem where GPIO pins will stop working the beaglebone black. I've hooked up a 3.3v RS485 transceiver and that all seems to working fine. We hooked up a GPIO pin (pin 25 on P9, GPIO 117) to monitor the receive output of the transceiver to check to see if the bus is active or quiet

Again, Please check the system reference manual. It is a wealth of information. Such as: "The DC supply should be well regulated and 5V +/-.25V" On Saturday, May 24, 2014 10:45:39 AM UTC-5, Jason Fehr wrote: > > What would be the maximum voltage you can supply through the rails? > > On Wednes

Using the new Debian builds on my beaglebone white, I'm trying to load a device tree overlay for the CAN cape on startup, but it seems to fail to load automatically (but try), however, I can load the device tree overlay manually and it seems to work just fine. What am I doing wrong? I even trie
