Enable PWM on i.MX7

jacobi — Wed, 01 Mar 2017 11:32:32 GMT

Hi,

I am very new to i.MX7. Actually I am new to embedded programming in general.

What I would like to do is enable the PWM on the Mikrobus on the i.MX7 processor (MKBUS_PWM2). How do I do this?

I have logged into Linux and exported pwmchip0 and set the duty_cycle and period. However, the pwm I see is very small indeed - probably cross talk from PWM from another pin.

What do I have to do? I would appreciate some help.

Jacob.

Hi Jacob

one can add pwm2 entries in dts (arch/arm/boot/dts/imx7d-sdb.dts), use pwm1 as example

linux-imx.git - i.MX Linux Kernel

Best regards

Hi Igor,

Thanks for your reply. That's exactly what I did and I got it working!

I made the changes below in my the dts:

&pwm2 {
pinctrl-names = "default";
pinctrl-0 = <&pinctrl_pwm2>;
status = "okay";
};

&iomuxc_lpsr {
pinctrl-names = "default";
pinctrl-0 = <&pinctrl_hog_2 &pinctrl_usbotg2_pwr_2>;

imx7d-sdb {
pinctrl_hog_2: hoggrp-2 {
fsl,pins = <
MX7D_PAD_GPIO1_IO05__GPIO1_IO5 0x14
>;
};

pinctrl_pwm1: pwm1grp {
fsl,pins = <
MX7D_PAD_GPIO1_IO01__PWM1_OUT 0x30
>;
};

pinctrl_pwm2: pwm2grp {
fsl,pins = <
MX7D_PAD_GPIO1_IO02__PWM2_OUT 0x30
>;
};
