i.MX8MP PCI issue

ABDNI — Wed, 20 Apr 2022 22:21:36 GMT

I have bought the Variscite evaluation kit, so I am using a VAR-SOM-MX8M-PLUS and Symphony board together.

I am using Debian Bullseye OS. Image: imx8mp-var-dart-debian-bullseye-5.10.52-v1.0.img.gz

When de-risking the board and testing all required interfaces. I encountered a problem with the PCI interface (mPCIe connector). I will be using an EG25-G mPCIe cellular module in the project.

Not sure how to continue troubleshooting this. Do you have any solutions/recommendations? Also let me know if there are any other outputs or diagnostics that would be helpful.

I receive no output from lspci when using the Quectel EG25-G, Telit LE910C1-AP, FN-Link 6222D-UUB and when using no mPCIe device.

Thanks heaps in advance.

The reason for the issue was the the Variscite Symphony board's mPCIe interface doesn't support USB communication, pins 36 and 38 are left un-routed on the carrier board. The mPCIe cellular modules that I was testing with require USB support to function.

Did you identify an alternative LTE module /setup that is compatible ?
