**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Jan 07 02:59:57 2023 Jan 07 03:38:58 is 24-bit BGR on available on the am335x? Jan 07 03:43:36 I am writing an i2s .dts file from an already produced -hdmi.dtsi. I will check as usual but if you know, chime in! Toodles. Jan 07 03:56:23 Too late, I know. Jan 07 03:56:31 Dang it. Off to the TRM! Jan 07 05:32:37 24.3.3.1, Bullet Point 3, and Line 1 means what? Let me articulate this line in chat. Excuse me... Jan 07 05:33:10 Its own transmitter register MCSPI_TX on top of the common shift register. Jan 07 05:34:22 That sentence makes less sense than me being alive! Phew. Jan 07 05:51:10 Is the only interrupt available on the McSPI interface a m3 while in slave mode? Jan 07 18:54:44 I spoof too often. You know and so do I. I will try to not spoof the year away this time...please forgive me. Jan 07 19:15:14 Man. Why did no one tell me I was reading McSPI instead of McASP? Jan 07 19:15:46 I spent seven hours studying the incorrect TRM section. There goes the new year resolution. Jan 07 19:16:00 in all of 12 minutes. Jan 07 19:22:27 When it hits the fan...yep. Jan 08 01:22:54 I know I may cause some frustrations. Can anyone you know or you study while listening to gangsta rap? Jan 08 01:23:10 I am in the am335x TRM and listening to Gucci Mane. Impossible. Jan 08 02:08:43 hello Jan 08 02:09:23 I see beaglebone project is still alive. That's good. Jan 08 02:10:39 I hope new beaglebone black will be made with better hardware and exactly the same pin layout/functions Jan 08 02:12:04 and in the future with fpga chip onboard :) Jan 08 02:13:54 fpga sounds highly implausible Jan 08 02:14:38 and you'll never have "exactly the same pin layout/functions" if you switch to a different SoC Jan 08 02:22:54 though TI's new cortex-a53 based AM625x SoC is highly backwards compatible with the AM335x in terms of peripherals and connectivity and appears to be positioned to be its successor Jan 08 02:30:07 everything is possible Jan 08 02:31:21 just needs the same ammount of pins Jan 08 02:32:04 if my beablegone stops working, my house stops working :) Jan 08 02:32:08 uhm what, no, different pins have different functions Jan 08 02:32:14 unless you only ever use them in gpio mode Jan 08 02:33:12 I made a board with optocouplers long ago. Jan 08 02:34:06 would be shame if I had to make a new one with the new board. Jan 08 02:34:54 anyway if fpga was put on the board it would make it basically industrial PLC. Jan 08 02:35:23 imagine plc with the size of a credit card Jan 08 02:35:31 why do you need an FPGA for that? Jan 08 02:36:17 https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000448620399.html Jan 08 02:37:04 FPGA is highly programmable. basically you can do anything. meaning non-blocking communication Jan 08 02:37:51 that doesn't answer the question... a PLC is normally just microcontroller-based, using an fpga sounds like an unsual design choice Jan 08 02:38:44 no, basically all PLC have fpga inside which are programmed with "ladder logic" Jan 08 02:40:42 that's how it's programmed, it doesn't imply an fpga is used at all Jan 08 02:41:49 that "ladder logic" can, and as far as I understand typically is, still just evaluated by software Jan 08 02:41:52 on a cpu Jan 08 02:42:37 ladder logic is for fpga based cpus. and industial PLCs need to have fpga chip for reliability. Jan 08 02:42:53 what does using an fpga have to do with reliability? Jan 08 02:43:27 if you have 100 inputs how can you register input signal from all 100 inputs in 1 period? Jan 08 02:43:45 yeah you can't without fpga. Jan 08 02:44:10 in sequential processing it would take 100 clock periods at least Jan 08 02:44:26 or cycles **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sun Jan 08 02:59:56 2023
