This post is about adding cellular modem support on the Boundary Devices i.MX6 boards under Ubuntu.  Many customers have requested cellular modem support on our i.MX6 boards (BD-SL-i.MX6, Nitrogen6X, Nitrogen6_Lite and Nitrogen6_MAX).  Since most cell modems are USB or PCIe devices, configuration is a software task, and mostly done in userspace. The steps are also different for Android, embedded Linux and desktop distributions.  In other words, its complicated. In this post, we’ll walk through all of the steps needed to configure a specific set of modems under Ubuntu as a reference. If you’re using another modem or another userspace, the details may be different, but the fundamentals will be the same. We used the Huawei E3131 USB dongle , and Huawei MU609 Mini-PCIe during this process, and will be adding them to our default kernels going forward. As you can see in this patch, we did have to add some USB device ids and make minor updates to the kernel as provided by the vendor. In the process, we should now also support the following Huawei models for various regions and carriers: MC323   CDMA: Downlink:153.6 kbps, Uplink: 153.6 kbps MU509   WDCMA: Downlink:3.6 Mbps, Uplink: 384 kbps MC509   EVDO: Downlink:3.1 Mbps, Uplink: 1.8 Mbps MU609   HSPA+: Downlink:14.4 Mbps, Uplink: 5.76 Mbps MU709   HSPA+: Downlink:21.6 Mbps, Uplink: 5.76 Mbps ME906   LTE: Downlink:100 Mbps, Uplink: 50 Mbps ME909   LTE: Downlink:100 Mbps, Uplink: 50 Mbps ME936   LTE: Downlink:100 Mbps, Uplink: 50 Mbps For more details including links to images as well as detailed descriptions on how to implement, please visit this blog post:  http://boundarydevices.com/cellular-modems-on-i-mx6-boards/

Now we are debugging audio quality with sgtl5000 on i.mx6DL platform. The test audio curve is attached, what we need now is to get 8dB more gain at 90Hz and 15dB more at 5KHz. Can anyone help on setting regs in sgtl5000 codec?How? Thanks in advance.

iWave has been one of the early adopters of i.MX6. As a result of this, iWave dived into the design and manufacture of one of the early i.MX6 Qseven System on Modules to keep up the commitment to clients. As recently Freescale has rolled out the Power Management Companion Chip for i.MX6, iWave has come up with the improved i.MX6 Qseven SOM integrated with PMIC to adhere to our corporate policy of constant improvement of design to meet customers’ needs. iWave is now happy to announce the launch of the new improved feature-rich i.MX6 Quad/Dual/Dual Lite/Solo Qseven SOM module with enhanced performance. Basically, the predecessor SOM is based on Qseven R1.2 specifications whereas the new SOM is compliant to Qseven R2.0 specifications. Freescale’s latest PMIC is integrated to the SOM for better power management. This feature enables various power management options to the customers including the dynamic voltage frequency scaling (DVFS) supported by the i.MX6 CPU. The new SOM is compliance to the latest R2.0 Qseven specification. The SOM supports 8 GPIOs on the LPC interface and additional UART port proposed in the latest R2.0 Qseven specification. These new SOMs will be supported with Linux, Android and Windows Embedded Compact 7 BSP. The SOMs will be software compatible with existing non-PMIC based i.MX6 Qseven SOMs with additional BSP patches. These new PMIC based SOMs and their associated heat spreader part samples are available for customer evaluation. For further information or inquiries please write to mktg@iwavesystems.com
