Aug 31 14:09:05 <kiran4399> Anyone there?
Aug 31 15:46:14 <av500> kiran4399: I am, but not sure if I can make the meeting
Aug 31 15:46:21 <av500> in other words, no meeting :)
Aug 31 15:55:08 <kiran4399> av500: not about the meeting..
Aug 31 15:56:10 <kiran4399> av500: I just wanted to know the advantages of using GPIO pins( other than those alloted to PRU) to PRU compared to the pins alloted to PRU
Aug 31 15:56:18 <kiran4399> av500: can you tell me about it?
Aug 31 15:56:22 <kiran4399> alexhiam: hi!!
Aug 31 15:56:33 <kiran4399> alexhiam: long time..
Aug 31 15:58:52 <alexhiam> Hi kiran4399!
Aug 31 15:59:09 <kiran4399> alexhiam: how are you?
Aug 31 15:59:30 * alexhiam is sitting at a red light on the way to work, so only kinda here..
Aug 31 15:59:42 <kiran4399> oh..kk..
Aug 31 15:59:52 <kiran4399> alexhiam: thanks for being such a wonderful mentor!!
Aug 31 16:00:08 <kiran4399> alexhiam: looking forward for GSoC 2017!
Aug 31 16:01:20 <alexhiam> kiran4399: thanks for participating! And sorry for pretty much disappearing here at the end...
Aug 31 16:01:40 <kiran4399> alexhiam: no.. not at all.. it's ok..
Aug 31 16:01:46 <kiran4399> alexhiam: just have a quick question..
Aug 31 16:01:50 <kiran4399> alexhiam: I just wanted to know the advantages of using GPIO pins( other than those alloted to PRU) to PRU compared to the pins alloted to PRU
Aug 31 16:02:29 <kiran4399> alexhiam: you see.. I am doing a robotics project where I use beaglebone black on my drone.. and 4 ultrasonic sensors connected to bealgebone black.. using PRU..
Aug 31 16:02:30 <alexhiam> You mean using the arm's gpio pins from the pru?
Aug 31 16:02:45 <kiran4399> alexhiam: I just wanted to know if I should use the arm GPIO or PRU GPIO
Aug 31 16:03:01 <kiran4399> alexhiam: what are the advantages of using arm gpios..
Aug 31 16:05:24 <alexhiam> Ah, cool. You'd want the dedicated pru gpio. They give you guaranteed single cycle read/write, vs unknown latencies to the arm gpios going through the l3 interconnect
Aug 31 16:05:38 <ZeekHuge> alexhiam: Hi !  been long time ! I still remember when I first came in for the SPI implementation project and you asked me questions about it. Thanks for help always :)
Aug 31 16:06:09 * ZeekHuge 's been and is quite busy coz of college things.
Aug 31 16:10:14 <alexhiam> ZeekHuge: no prob, thanks for taking on that project!
Aug 31 16:10:53 <ZeekHuge> Ah .. SPI implementation was chankya_vc's ;)
Aug 31 16:13:30 <alexhiam> Doh! Right, sorry, it's all a blur already :D
