WE 12:02 PM PCB Development: RE: Power Consumption: Hayden,
Perfect, I'm glad I could help! If you have any further questions please let us know!
Will William Evans

HS 09:18 PM PCB Development: RE: Power Consumption: Hey Will,
Thanks for the quick response!
I was able to follow your direction and disable many of the baseboard components. I am powering the board through the battery connector, and so most of those components were already disabled... Hayden Smith

WE 07:49 PM PCB Development: RE: Power Consumption: Hayden,
We don't currently have a minimum quiescent operating power for the SOM. Current consumption on the SOM alone is heavily influenced by the software running on the processor, clock states, and background processes all contribut... William Evans
HS 03:02 PM PCB Development: Power Consumption: Hello,
I am currently doing a power analysis of the MitySOM-QC6490 (80-001777RI-2). We are interested in operating the QC6490 SOM in the lowest possible power setting to preserve battery life,
while still actively processing data in ... Hayden Smith
GG 06:04 PM PCB Development: RE: 4V on 3V3-SOM!: I just wanted to update that the datasheets for the SOM and Dev Board at https://www.criticallink.com/products/?filter=qualcomm-based have been updated to accurately detail that the BOB voltage is 4V Gregory Gluszek

MW 08:13 PM Software Development: RE: SPI bringup: Hi Nathan,
I think you can remove the NFC pins and give it a shot.

NO 07:49 PM Software Development: RE: SPI bringup: The original commit message for those lines is "Add gpio-reserved-ranges for QCM6490 boards."
In mainline linux, I found the following in qcs6490-rb3gen2.dts: Nathan Olson
NO 07:01 PM Software Development: RE: SPI bringup: Edit: The boot crash in unrelated and I've resolved that. However, SPI configuration still fails: Nathan Olson

NO 09:04 PM Software Development: SPI bringup: Are there any reference examples of software using SPI? I'm attempting to configure the QUP to use SPI on my carrier board.
Here's my device tree modification: Nathan Olson

WE 04:19 PM PCB Development: RE: 4V on 3V3-SOM!: Unfortunately this cannot be addressed on the SOM as the SOM will hang if this voltage is dropped lower than 4V.
For future baseboard revisions there will need to be a regulator in between the SOM and the downstream components on this... William Evans
NO 04:06 PM PCB Development: RE: 4V on 3V3-SOM!: Thanks Will. The pins are tied directly to a power plane on my prototype boards, so I'll try breaking the connector pins as you suggest.
Will this issue be fixed in later versions of the SOM, or should I plan on adding a 3V3 regulator... Nathan Olson
WE 01:07 PM PCB Development: RE: 4V on 3V3-SOM!: Hello Nathan,
The PMICs on the SOM support changing the output voltage of this pin. The idea was to have it at 3.3V but unfortunately the SOM hangs if this voltage is lower than 4V.
As a result we had to re-spin our development boa... William Evans

NO 08:50 PM PCB Development: 4V on 3V3-SOM!: Hello,
Why is 3V3-SOM outputting 4V? Is there a way to change this to 3.3V?
I see that the devkit schematic shows it as 4V, but the datasheet and Carrier Board Design Guide (and the name!) show it as 3.3V. Unfortunately I just rece... Nathan Olson
