Hello everybody,
I meet some problem about Imx6ull uart2 comunicating problem. I connect "UART2_TX_DATA", "UART2_RX_DATA", "UART2_RTS_B", "UART2_CTS_B" to a BlueTooth module.
Firstly, the schematic is as bellow:
Secondly, the DTS configure is as bellow:
#if 1
/*For AP6236 BT*/
pinctrl_uart2: uart2grp {
fsl,pins = <
MX6UL_PAD_UART2_TX_DATA__UART2_DCE_TX 0x1b0b1
MX6UL_PAD_UART2_RX_DATA__UART2_DCE_RX 0x1b0b1
MX6UL_PAD_UART2_RTS_B__UART2_DCE_RTS 0x1b0b1
MX6UL_PAD_UART2_CTS_B__UART2_DCE_CTS 0x110b1
MX6ULL_PAD_SNVS_TAMPER2__GPIO5_IO02 0x1b0b0 /* BT_wake */
MX6ULL_PAD_SNVS_TAMPER3__GPIO5_IO03 0x1b0b0 /* BT_rst */
>;
};
#else
pinctrl_uart2dte: uart2dtegrp {
fsl,pins = <
MX6UL_PAD_UART2_TX_DATA__UART2_DTE_RX 0x1b0b1
MX6UL_PAD_UART2_RX_DATA__UART2_DTE_TX 0x1b0b1
MX6UL_PAD_UART2_CTS_B__UART2_DTE_RTS 0x1b0b1
MX6UL_PAD_UART2_RTS_B__UART2_DTE_CTS 0x1b0b1
>;
};
#endif
......
#if 1
&uart2 {
pinctrl-names = "default";
pinctrl-0 = <&pinctrl_uart2>;//DCE
// pinctrl-0 = <&pinctrl_uart2dte>;//DTE
fsl,uart-has-rtscts;
// fsl,dce-mode;
// fsl,dte-mode;
/* for DTE mode, add below change */
/* fsl,dte-mode; */
/* pinctrl-0 = <&pinctrl_uart2dte>; */
status = "okay";
};
#endif
1. I had configured the 4 pins to GPIO and test their electrical level, I confirm that the 4 pins is OK connect to CPU.
2. when I use DCE mode and run a application about uart , the "UART2_CTS" is HIGN, "UART2_RTS" is LOW, "UART2_TX"& "UART2_RX" have no signal out in tthe oscilloscope.
3. But when I use DTE mode(the hardware is not change in the DCE mode), the "UART2_CTS" is HIGN, "UART2_RTS" is LOW, "UART2_RX" have signal out in the osccilloscope.
4. So I confusion when I use UART2 to communicaton to my BlueTooth module, Should I use the DTE mode and change the Hardware to the DTE mode??? Or what the exactly problem is?
Hi Wuxiuxin
DTE differs from DCE mode by direction of some signals, it is better
described in sect.Table 86. UART I/O Configuration vs. Mode i.MX6DQ Datasheet
http://www.nxp.com/docs/en/data-sheet/IMX6DQCEC.pdf
You can use mode which is working fine.
Best regards
igor
