Hi All, The i.MX6 Android R13.4-GA.03 patch release is now available on www.freescale.com · Files available # Name Description 1 IMX6_R13.4.03_ANDROID_PATCH This patch release is based on the i.MX 6 Android R13.4 release. The purpose of this patch release is correct the PFD workflow in U-Boot, fix the miscalibration issue for the thermal sensor and corrects ramp-up time of the internal LDOs

Summary of the Issue: We have had customers reporting failure to run MC and SC production parts at 1GHz or higher frequencies. The signature of the fail is that the system will hang once it tries to ramp from the boot frequency of 800MHz to 1GHz or higher. The root cause was tracked to the setting of the LDO_VOLT_CHANGE_EN fuse in production parts. The LDO_VOLT_CHANGE_EN fuse sets the LDO boot voltage to either 1.15V (indicated by a fuse setting of “1”) or 1.1V (indicated by a fuse setting of “0”). In production parts the fuse is set to “1”, i.e. 1.15V, since this is the optimal setting based on characterization data. On pre-production units the LDO voltage was set to the lower setting of 1.1V (i.e. fuse set to “0”). The reason this is a problem with MC/SC parts is because the fuse is read by the ROM during boot and overwrites the LDO ramp rate bits in the PMU_MISC2 register based on the setting of the fuse. When the LDO_VOLT_CHANG_EN fuse is set to “1” then the LDO ramp up time to spec voltage is set (in PMU_MISC2) to 500uS instead of the 50uS assumed by the CPUFreq driver. This will cause the system to hang when transitioning from the boot frequency to a higher frequency/voltage point since the required voltage to support the higher frequency is not yet present. In real terms, customers who have production i.MX 6Quad/6Dual/6DualLite and 6 Solo parts have seen failures to ramp their products to 1GHz or higher frequencies. This is completely fixed by a software patch that corrects the LDO ramp setting in the PMU_MISC_2 register by setting it back to the fastest ramp time. Note that the LDO_VOLT_CHANGE_EN fuse is not in the reference manual since it is not a customer visible fuse. It is programmed and locked at final test. This is a mandatory fix for all customers. Affected Parts: i.MX 6Quad – all SC and MC parts, consumer and automotive. Industrial MC parts not yet shipping. i.MX 6Dual – all SC and MC parts, consumer and automotive. Industrial MC parts not yet shipping. i.MX 6DualLite – all MC parts consumer parts. Automotive and industrial MC parts not yet shipping. i.MX 6Solo – all MC consumer parts.

Please see the readme in the attchment for how to enale this feature. Note: for ISI loopback, it needs output of 2x GPIO (4x for HDMI-TX or combo PHY) to pixel_link_receiver_address: For iMX8QM: o LVDS: pixel_link_receiver_address[1:0] = do_gpio_dr[7:6] o MIPI-DSI: pixel_link_receiver_address[1:0] = do_gpio_dr[7:6] o HDMI-TX: odd_pixel_link_receiver_address[1:0] = do_gpio_dr[7:6],even_pixel_link_receiver_address[1:0] = do_gpio_dr[5:4] For iMX8QXP: o Combo MIPI-DSI / LVDS: pixel_link0_receiver_address[1:0] = do_gpio_dr[7:6], pixel_link1_receiver_address[1:0] = do_gpio_dr[5:4]

GTK+ is a highly usable, feature rich toolkit for creating graphical user interfaces which boasts cross platform compatibility and an easy to use API. GTK+ it is written in C, but has bindings to many other popular programming languages such as C++, Python and C# among others. GTK+ is licensed under the GNU LGPL 2.1 allowing development of both free and proprietary software with GTK+ without any license fees or royalties. [Source: gtk.org] As GTK+ is a graphical library, a program using GTK+ can be done in many languages like C, C++, Python, Perl, PHP, Ruby, and many others. Here a C example will be done. How to make a simple program with GTK An easier way to make a graphical interface (GUI) program using GTK+ is to use Glade as Graphical Editor. Glade3 Screenshot To install Glade on Ubuntu type: $sudo apt-get install glade-3 Old Glade versions used to generate C code. Currently version ONLY generates a .glade file that can be parsed in a .xml file which describes the hierachy of the widgets. Let's create, compile and test a sample program on host and after, cross-compile for iMX platform and check it running on a PDK i.MX31 Development kit. In order to develop on host PC, install libgtk2.0-dev typing: $sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev

Dear All, Our board is designed based on both EVK and HEG (Adeneo Embedded Home Energy Gateway), the ENET_FEC_RESET_B on EVK is replaced by LCD_D11 as it on HEG. We have re-config all pins based on i.mx28 BSP and successfully built by ltib. However, eth0 is not working due to "PHY is not found"! and we are still trying to figure it out. The changes we apply on the BSP are(in mx28evk_pins.c): in static struct pin_desc mx28evk_fixed_pins[]: the definition of LCD_D11 change to { .name = "LCD_D11", .id = PINID_LCD_D11, /* PHY reset pin*/ .fun = PIN_GPIO, .voltage = PAD_3_3V, .strength = PAD_8MA, .output = 0, }, and replace all "PINID_ENET0_RX_CLK" in mx28evk_pins.c by "PINID_LCD_D11" To prevent any possible interrupt, we also disable all LCD pins in both mx28_pins.h and mx28evk_pins.c since we don't have LCD. Any comment/suggestion is highly appreciate! BR, TF

Question: To eliminate the need for pull-ups AND pull-downs on the gpio boot override pins to save board space, does anyone know when in the boot rom that the GPIO pins are sampled and whether the internal Pull Downs are already enabled? Is this true for all the GPIO override pins? To just be able to provide an external Pull-up to specify boot options and NOT both pull-up and pull-down option. Can this be done? Answer: The pull-ups and pull-downs are active while POR_B is low (as defined in the datasheet). The pins are sampled on the 2 nd rising edge of RTC_XTALO before the rising edge of POR_B. As a caution, on-chip pull-up/downs are very weak and are primarily intended for controlling the pin (keeping it from logically wiggling) if the pin is not connected at all. If a pin is connected out to a trace, relaying on the on-chip PU/PD alone could be a little risky. Since the PU/PD is weak, it's possible to have noise coupled onto the pin. [Similar to Brett's comment above].

Question: The i.MX6 documentation gives several different values for the maximum frequency of the IPU’s HSP_CLK clock. What are the correct HSP_CLK maximum frequency values for the i.MX6 Dual/Quad and Solo/DualLite? Can HSP_CLK run at 270 MHz on both the DQ and SDL CPUs, but it’s not clear from the documentation if this is permitted. Maximum HSP_CLK frequencies listed in the reference manual (DQ😞 264 MHz (Table 9-2 (IPU IP Parametric Table), Table 9-5 (IPU Clock Sources)) 266 MHz (Table 18-3 (System Clock Frequency Values)) Maximum HSP_CLK frequencies listed in the reference manual (SDL😞 270 MHz (Table 9-2 (IPU IP Parametric Table), Table 9-5 (IPU Clock Sources), Table 18-3 (System Clock Frequency Values)) Answer: Referring to Figure 18-2, IPU1_HSP_CLK_ROOT may be selected to have 1 of 4 sources. These sources are highlighted in yellow on the northwest corner of the page and the previous paragraph states these are max values. Possible sources are 540, 528, 396, and 480 MHz. The 480 MHz is divided by 4 before the selector, so winds up being 120 MHz. Per the diagram, these are all divided by 2 for IPU1_HSP_CLK_ROOT. The result is 270, 264, 198, and 60 MHz choices. Therefore, the max for IPU1_HSP_CLK_ROOT is 270 MHz for DQ. MX6D/Q and MX6S/DL are different with respect to max HSP_CLK frequency. MX6D/Q = 264 MHz max MX6S/DL = 270 MHz max
