IMX8MM IEEE 1588 PTP output test

Ben_Teng — Tue, 23 May 2023 03:01:27 GMT

Hello,

Currently I am working on IEEE 1588 PTP output verification, I observed that there's not a precise 1 pps when I enable pps. It should be 1pps Ideally in my perspective. Would anyone help me figure this out?

Many thanks

Here are my steps as below:

step 1. Configured the function pin:

MX8MM_IOMUXC_GPIO1_IO09_ENET1_1588_EVENT0_OUT 0x01

step 2. Revised fec_ptp.c

- val |= (FEC_HIGH_PULSE << FEC_T_TMODE_OFFSET);
+ //val |= (FEC_HIGH_PULSE << FEC_T_TMODE_OFFSET);
+ val |= (FEC_TMODE_TOGGLE << FEC_T_TMODE_OFFSET);

Step 3. replace kernel Image and dtb then reboot the system.

Step 4. enable pps

ptp4l -A -4 -H -m -i eth0 &

echo 1 > /sys/class/ptp/ptp0/pps_enable

Step 5. Use oscilloscope to check pps (Sorry I dont have the permission to upload image or attachments)

I observed the pps output waveform with Hi(2s) and Lo(2s) ( a.k.a the period is around 4s), I found there's a similar waveform in i.MX IEEE1588 output test.pdf page 6.

I'm using iMX8MM with linux kernel version 5.4.3, does anybody can help me figure this out please?

Thanks again.

Hello,

Here's the pps waveform, it is 4s per period approximately .

Could anybody guide me how to adjust the period to 1pps please?

I can get 1 pps output now, and recently I'm trying to adjust duty cycle of each pulse.

e.g. Currently pps duty cycle = 50%, is it possible to adjust pulse width?

Best Regards,

Ben

Hi @Rita_Wang ,

Thanks for your reply!

Now I can get 1 pps output yet duty cycle is 50%, is it possible to adjust DC% of 1 pps output by any chance?

Currently I'm using Linux Kernel version 5.4.3.

Thanks again!

Best Regards,

Ben
