Hello FC community, I am pleased to announce that the situation with REcon has been worked out and that I will be giving a presentation about FreeCalypso this summer at a major conference:
https://recon.cx/2017/montreal/ I also got the reimbursement from them for my flight cost, and I have just placed the order with Digi-Key for both the Molex crimping tool I am going to use to make proper UART and JTAG connection cables for our boards, and the adapter for connecting to the RF test port on Openmoko devices. I will use the latter to connect an Om-made and Om-calibrated GTA02 to my CMU200 and verify my calibration setup: see how my own GMagic calibration for each band compares against the one made at Om's factory, and how the Tx power levels calibrated by Om compare against the spec values, against what I am able to produce on the FCDEV3B and against TI's D-Sample board. Speaking of the D-Sample (TI's historical development platform of which I managed to score one back in 2015), that board has the same power input connector and the same SMA RF interface as our FCDEV3B (I deliberately chose the same connectors and a few other parts for our design as TI used on their historical dev platforms), so I can use almost the same hardware setup with the D-Sample as with our own board. I still have no way to build my own firmware for this D-Sample, as it has Clara RF and an earlier Calypso chip version, so I'm limited to running the ancient 20020917 fw it came with, but TI's L1/RF Test Mode command interface had not really changed in all those years, and so both fc-tmsh and my temporarily-unpublished RF calibration software work just fine with this ancient fw on the D-Sample! I plan on doing some more work on the calibration software this weekend, or maybe even tonight. Hasta la Victoria, Siempre, Mychaela aka The Mother _______________________________________________ Community mailing list Community@freecalypso.org https://www.freecalypso.org/mailman/listinfo/community
