Sep 11 04:24:50 Hello... Sep 11 04:27:29 Hello.. Sep 11 04:34:46 Hey.. Sep 11 04:35:15 Hello Sep 11 04:35:39 Kindly confirm, is EULA for the beagleboard available on the site? Sep 11 06:13:40 finally hacked together a serial port data plotter that can be compiled in 1 line without 293409321493489028409238490234890234890234890238 dependencies Sep 11 07:07:15 Hi, I have connected EEPROM AT24C512 with i2c-1 of Beaglebone black. By giving "i2cdetect -y -r 1" i am getting my device address as 0x50. whenever i am trying to write using "i2cset -y 1 0x50 0x00 0x12" the value 0x12 is not writing in the corresponding memory address 0x00. while reading by "i2cget -y 0x50 0x00" iam getting always 0xff. So please tell me the way of writing to the EEPROM with particular memory address. Thank yo Sep 11 08:08:25 hello Sep 11 08:08:30 need some help with spi Sep 11 08:08:40 i have a BBB Sep 11 08:08:46 and i want to use SPI0 Sep 11 08:09:45 I managed to bring it up (i.e. rise /dev/spidev1.0) Sep 11 08:09:54 at boot time Sep 11 08:10:18 but i can't communicate with my device Sep 11 08:10:43 i monitored all 4 signals (CS, D0, D1, SCLK) Sep 11 08:11:11 and it seems that CS is always HIGH, no matter what i do Sep 11 08:11:19 from boot time Sep 11 08:12:05 i need to control CS in order to send data (when is LOW i can send, and after i finish transmission i set it up back high) Sep 11 08:12:29 but it simply doesn't respond to any of my commands Sep 11 08:12:54 i can't make it go LOW so that i could start transmission Sep 11 08:13:20 i'm using python (my C/C++ skills are very low) Sep 11 08:52:04 JOIN Sep 11 08:52:25 anybody here Sep 11 08:52:27 ? Sep 11 08:52:30 I DO Sep 11 08:54:21 * Nitay slaps BeagleBot around a bit with a large fishbot Sep 11 09:39:56 I'm working Bluetooth on BeagleBoard Sep 11 10:12:11 Hi, I'm looking for a driver example for a DAC Quad-channel drived by 1 shift register (DAC124S085), can you advice me a close driver example ? Sep 11 10:36:39 Gwak: you dont need a driver for that Sep 11 10:36:44 Gwak: you can do spi from userspace Sep 11 10:37:48 Gwak: unless you need jitter free spacing of the output, then you can use any of the existing dac drivers as example Sep 11 11:11:21 cute DAC Sep 11 11:17:07 beside the package Sep 11 11:17:27 you dont want to deal with WSON if you can avoid it... even with professional manufacturing Sep 11 11:17:41 and VSSOP is a pain doing by hand Sep 11 11:19:44 .5mm SO Sep 11 11:19:46 fine for me :) Sep 11 11:20:49 do have any optics for soldering? Sep 11 11:21:10 of course Sep 11 11:21:10 i didnt see anything of the like in your lair Sep 11 11:21:15 oh.. good Sep 11 11:21:19 * KotH takes notes Sep 11 11:21:27 stereo scope Sep 11 11:21:33 with fiber light Sep 11 11:21:58 leica? Sep 11 11:22:08 zeiss? Sep 11 11:22:19 wetzlar Sep 11 11:22:38 Hund Sep 11 11:23:14 sounds old Sep 11 11:23:32 few ys Sep 11 11:24:54 http://www.ebay.com/itm/7X-45X-Trinocular-Stereo-Zoom-Microscope-with-Double-Arm-Boom-Stand-/400429169541?hash=item5d3b703b85 Sep 11 11:25:00 these things have become cheap! Sep 11 11:31:58 KotH: yes, something like that Sep 11 12:55:54 KotH : Ye I need to solve jitter problem that's why i'm looking for a driver Sep 11 12:58:20 Gwak: what is your jitter spec? Sep 11 13:01:08 I need to read ANA input every 1ms, and then write to the ANAout, and digital IO (i've already done a driver for those), and this at highest speed possible to be able to run over userspace program between Sep 11 13:01:28 other * Sep 11 13:02:13 i've about 10-15us to write 4 ana output throught spi Sep 11 15:33:17 Nitay: you there? Sep 11 15:44:33 will the debian spin run ok if the EEPROM i2c device is not present? Sep 11 15:46:17 run == power/init Sep 11 15:55:30 ? Sep 11 15:55:54 we are respinning our own version of the bbb for a product, fyi Sep 11 15:56:41 Can anyone help me to install the latets image to my sd card? and I also have an lcd toych screen , it says i need 5v dc , so does it still can run if my bbb is connected to the pc? or 5vdc is the only choice? Sep 11 15:59:45 yates: just try and depop it? Sep 11 16:00:10 Nitay: it's very likely that the display needs more power than USB can deliver Sep 11 16:00:41 Nitay: without knowing which dispaly it's impossible to say if the latest debian image will work Sep 11 17:45:36 I am interested in creating a custom Beaglebone with GSM built in, not as a cape, but on the same board. Any idea who to talk to? Sep 11 17:50:27 Guest14887: depends... Sep 11 17:50:40 Guest14887: you don't NEED to talk to anyone.... Sep 11 17:50:55 but you should talk to the community if you want to share your updates back. Sep 11 17:51:38 But to get the circuitboard design files, wouldn't I need ot coordinate with someone? Sep 11 17:51:59 And of course I would love to share with the community :) Sep 11 17:52:22 Guest14887: the design files are shared up on the wiki/github Sep 11 17:52:42 Wow, I thought that was only the software / drivers Sep 11 17:53:35 Guest14887: Open Source Hardware! Sep 11 17:53:54 Nitay: you still around Sep 11 17:53:55 ? Sep 11 17:54:13 Wow, so much better than Raspberry Pi! I had started with them thinking they were open source but quickly found I was wrong. Sep 11 17:54:35 Guest14887: indeed. seems the message still hasn't gone out. Sep 11 17:55:05 That is unfortunate :( Sep 11 17:55:07 you aren't a plant to try to get one of our key messages out, are you? Sep 11 17:55:36 I don't think so, just a guy with a dream :) Sep 11 17:56:24 Want to make a ethernet capable webserver with sms ability Sep 11 17:56:37 Guest14887: able to find the design files OK now? Sep 11 17:56:49 * jkridner needs to run off to a meeting. Sep 11 17:57:09 RevC5 most recent? Sep 11 17:57:11 Guest14887: no requirement to share your design back with the community, but making it available to everyone is highly encourage. Sep 11 17:57:19 also, see http://beagleboard.org/logo Sep 11 17:57:21 Sure thing Sep 11 17:58:09 Rev C: https://github.com/beagleboard/BeagleBone-Black Sep 11 17:58:30 http://elinux.org/Beagleboard:BeagleBoneBlack#LATEST_PRODUCTION_FILES_.28C.29 Sep 11 17:59:04 Altium, PADS and other conversions exist. Sep 11 17:59:56 You are very awesome, thank you so much for your assistance Sep 11 18:02:22 I had just gotten off the phone with an EE company that quoted $500,000 to design because they said I would need months of firmware development and so on because I would have to start from scratch. This is way better than I expected, putting the project back in reach of possibility hopefully. Sep 11 18:03:24 http://www.mauve.plus.com/opensourcehw.txt - you may find interesting. Sep 11 18:03:28 Guest14887: Sep 11 18:03:51 BB makes it rather easier. Sep 11 18:04:04 If you're OK with just using a module, then it's quite easy indeed. Sep 11 18:06:05 The form factor of the BB makes using a module much easier than if I was to start with RPi, but it would still be cool if I could get it all on the same board and just expand the traces for the GPIO over to the GSM module leaving everything else the same. Sep 11 18:07:18 yeah - that's pretty easy Sep 11 18:07:36 especially if you use a module with a GSM antenna socket, it's very easy (other than power issues) Sep 11 18:07:54 If you want to integrate the chips onto the board, it gets much, much harder Sep 11 18:08:36 Do you actually need linux+ GSM? Sep 11 18:08:37 and pricey with the FCC certification and so on. Sep 11 18:08:44 I do Sep 11 18:08:58 I am unsure if you will not require FCC certification. Sep 11 18:09:07 Fairly sure you will, in fact. Sep 11 18:09:20 Just because the GSM module is certified, doesn't mean your board is. Sep 11 18:09:34 (if you're selling it as a finished product) Sep 11 18:09:38 Yeah, hoping to avoid using this: http://www.openvox.cn/products/voip-gateways/gsm-gateways/164/vs-gw1202-8g-detail.html Sep 11 18:10:00 I need over 1000 per year, so it gets pricey to not do our own Sep 11 18:10:40 And their embeded linux is busybox which is very difficult to work with Sep 11 18:10:47 That's quite reasonable Sep 11 18:10:48 ah Sep 11 18:10:53 that's not so reasonable Sep 11 18:11:40 I have 4 software developers, but no hardware guys - so was not sure where to go other than the big name on the block of RPi Sep 11 18:12:25 I would question if it's sensible to do it in one board, as doing the GSM on a daughterboard may give you most of the cost savings, and allow you to swap out the GSM module or the linux bit at will Sep 11 18:12:43 have you guys worked with any manufacturers you would recommend? Sep 11 18:13:02 ##electronics ##embedded may also be useful places to ask Sep 11 18:13:04 True SpeedEvil, that might be a great idea Sep 11 18:13:40 I was talking to ATT yesterday and they were saying that every 5 years I may have to replace the type of GSM Sim used Sep 11 18:13:54 So having a seperate module might actually be the best. Sep 11 18:14:38 I have just had very poor results using the module with RPi where I frequently cannot connect to it Sep 11 18:15:08 but if reliability could go up, I wouldn't mind using the module with BB Sep 12 02:14:46 we're spinning a custom board off the bbb and have removed the video circuit, hdmi connector, and clock driver. will this cause any problems for the debian operating system? Sep 12 02:15:20 obviously we're not attaching a monitor of any type. Sep 12 02:32:55 the A15 pin output from the AM3358, labeled XDMA_EVENT_INTR0, drives both a clock for the HDMI interface and also interfaces to the JTAG connector (EMU2). so how is this multiplexed between the two functions? Sep 12 02:42:43 what is the clock driver? Sep 12 02:46:08 anyone here uses barebox to boot beaglebone ? **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sat Sep 12 02:59:58 2015
