MP 08:15 AM Software Development: RE: Why is MityDSP-L138F UPP transmit sometimes giving UOR events
We leave it at 300 Mhz Marc Postema
MW 08:08 AM Software Development: RE: Why is MityDSP-L138F UPP transmit sometimes giving UOR events
When you boot linux, are you changing the CPU OPP to 456 MHz or leaving it at 300 MHz? Michael Williamson
MP 08:03 AM Software Development: RE: Why is MityDSP-L138F UPP transmit sometimes giving UOR events
Hello,
Yes we have adjusted the bus master priority of uPP, but did not see any great improvements (strangely).
We have tried to set the uPP clock div to 1 (so 37.5 MHz) and the errors were flying.

MW 07:42 AM Software Development: RE: Why is MityDSP-L138F UPP transmit sometimes giving UOR events
Did you check / adjust your UPP Bus master priorities? Michael Williamson
MP 07:33 AM Software Development: RE: Why is MityDSP-L138F UPP transmit sometimes giving UOR events
Hello,
Just a quick update. When we do not boot into linux (just uboot) we do not see
these errors.
So booting linux has somehow influence on the uPP performence.
Again thanks for any assistants in this matter

Hi Marc,
Here are a couple of other things to consider:
# In the past we've had throughput problems with TI's uPP drivers. That was a couple years ago, so maybe the drivers are improved or will work fine for your scenario. However...

MW 08:22 AM Software Development: RE: Why is MityDSP-L138F UPP transmit sometimes giving UOR events
You might raise the priority up a bit (try 0 or 1). If the transfers are small, then it should be OK to give it priority.

MP 08:04 AM Software Development: RE: Why is MityDSP-L138F UPP transmit sometimes giving UOR events
Hello,
Here are some answers to the questions:
* Are you trying to run continuous transfers?
- We do not run continuous but every 200 us (5 kHz)
* Do you get the error on every transmit, or periodically?
- No not every...

MW 07:17 AM Software Development: RE: Why is MityDSP-L138F UPP transmit sometimes giving UOR events
Hi Marc,
Are you trying to run continuous transfers?
At 75 Mhz, you should be running a buffer rep rate of 64 / 75 MHz = 850 ns.
If you are trying to run continuous transfers, that would imply an interrupt rep-rate that fast.

Hello,
Here are some answers to the questions:
* Are you using the Critical Link MDK drivers? If so, what version of the MDK are you using?
- We use TI's legacy uPP driver
- MDK_2013-05-15

MW 07:22 AM Software Development: RE: I2C Bus
Hi Bruce,
I believe that the I2C addresses for I2C0 are described in the "Carrier Board Design Guide":http://www.criticallink.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/MityDSP-L138-Carrier-Board-Design-Guide.pdf.
From section 3.3.8:

BK 06:05 AM Software Development: I2C Bus
We are currently investigating a problem accessing the I2C0 bus.
My initial enquiry is to find out what devices are on the MityDSP SOM to insure we are not conflicting.
Our SOM is a L138-DX-225-RI. We are using uBoot to boot t...

GG 09:25 AM Software Development: RE: Why is MityDSP-L138F UPP transmit sometimes giving UOR events
Hi Marc,
If you are following the uPP design guidelines, then perhaps this is a true underflow or overflow condition. I have a number of questions about your project that can hopefully help us narrow down what the cause might be:

MP 06:05 AM Software Development: Why is MityDSP-L138F UPP transmit sometimes giving UOR events
Hello,
We use the MityDSP-L138F and between DSP and FPGA we use UPP communication but transmit (channel A) is giving sometimes an UOR events.
What could be the cause of this error, we use the recommended clock source (PLL0_SYSCLK2) s...

Hello Naveen,
As you stated, the vision_framework demo uses the IMG_sobel_3x3_16(), which you can use to understand exactly how the IMG_sobel_3x3_16() function is called (look in file AlgorithmEdgeDetect.cpp).
Regarding the DATA_A...

Mary,
I think you can disable the dma usage of the spi driver. I am using the following resource declaration for a different project. Note that the dm365 is a cousin of the l138.

I can see here (http://support.criticallink.com/rm_embedded/dsp-products/MDK_DOCS/2.11/core/class_mity_d_s_p_1_1tc_dsp_i2c2.html) that there is support for I2C-SMBus. However, in MDK_2013-05-15, I couldn't find the header core...

JC 01:50 PM Software Development: RE: Accessing SPI1 bus
Mary,
You can search the kernel source for the messages by using grep. For example I might search for the string "msb first" and look at what files are found containing that text. You could then comment out those print statements.

MF 01:18 PM Software Development: RE: Accessing SPI1 bus
I have successfully added the SPIDEV support to the kernel and can communicate over the bus now.
I occasionally see messages on the console of the following form:

MW 08:53 AM Software Development: RE: USB-OTG as a peripheral and a host
Probably the best solution would be to load in the USB OTG file storage gadget. This will make the L138 look like a thumb drive.
This link talks about it a bit (for AM335X, but is generally a "linux" thing and should work with L138)....

Hello,
I have used RNDIS and have been able to transfer data.
However, I would also like to know how to use either the *USB host* port or the *OTG port* to transfer data without setting up RNDIS.

Naveen,
The first UART is used for the debug/console port, UART1.
You would like to use the second UART in your DSP/ARM code to trigger some processing to occur correct? On the VDK this would be the J504 connector. I have verified ...
