Hi all,
please help me to resolve how i can give 800khz clock signal to a sensor through imx6q sabre lite board.I am using yocto dora as Os
Hi,
First of all, try not to post the same question twice, can you please your other post on the same subject?
how to give time critical signals like clock to sensors
There are several options but they all depend on your exact setup:
- do you know how to connect your sensor? what communication bus is it using?
- can you share the sensor information?
- are you plugging a display to the board? LVDS or LCD? this will tell us what connectors are free to be used for your sensor
- same question about cameras?
- is 800kHz an exact clock to have or 805kHz is acceptable for instance?
Anyway, this will most likely imply to change the device tree specifically for your board.

Gary
my sensor requires 2 input signal including clock and 2 output signal.other input is a start pulse and outputs are also pulses and one output i have to give to adc.remaining i am thinking of having through gpio pins. but how to pull the gpio outputs from sabre lite board? also clock freq can varies from 1-800 khz.Also i want to interface with lcd
Hi sribin
seems MX6QDL_PAD_GPIO_3__CCM_CLKO2 (pad GPIO_3_CLKO2) is used as sensor clock
https://boundarydevices.com/sabre_lite-revD.pdf
for gpio one can look at examples for "gpio_set_value..." in mach-imx6q.c:
linux-imx6/mach-imx6q.c at boundary-imx_3.14.28_1.0.0_ga · boundarydevices/linux-imx6 · GitHub
Best regards

Hii,
I want 6 GPIO pins and what all are the basic things needed to configure that and do i have to pull the wire out of imx6q sabre lite board to use that since all are occupied.
Hi sribin,
You need to choose how you want to plug your sensor (J15 or J23 for instance) then you need to modify the device tree (link from Igor) accordingly.
