[beagleboard] BBB eMMC failure

2021-01-07 Thread Edu Galvez
Hi,

We have a BBB returned from the field after just 3 months of operation. It 
runs kernel 3.8.13, and console shows the "C" letter when booting from 
eMMC, indicating that there is no valid boot.
Booting from an external SD Card with the latest debian image available 
works, but it shows this message:
*mmc1: error -110 whilst initialising MMC card*

Obviously, mmc1 does not appear on the /dev list, so we cannot use the 
mmc-utils tool to read the eMMC 

We have measured the supply voltages:
- VDD_3V3A - 3.3V
- VDD_3V3B - 3.4V

We are pretty confident about the surrounding hardware and software, as 
there are around 2k devices on the field, summing more than 12 millions 
hours of operations with no failure.

Any idea on how to proceed to find out the failure root cause?

Thanks!

[beagleboard] BBB eMMC setup failure

2017-06-23 Thread Edu Galvez

I'm investigating a BBB unit that got stuck during power-up. Only power 
led, and no data through console.
Rebooting or powering from USB or plug didn't help.

It was recovered after re-flashing the eMMC

fdisk and write-tests on the MMC shown no failures.

After thousand of powr cycle tests, I managed to repeat a "weird" situation 
once again. Booting from SD, the MMC appears not properly configured. I can 
mount the MMC, but it is empty. I don't know what caused that issue. I've 
been re-flashing the unit many times, and suddenly, it noticed the issue.
I only managed to recover the unit after re-flashing again. 
Rebboting/cycling the power didn't worked. The environment is noise free, 
and power supply is stable

I got the MMC registers (/sys/kernel/debug/mmc1) during the fail scenario:

*Working scenario:*

clock:  5200 Hz

*vdd:7 (1.65 - 1.95 V)*

bus mode:   2 (push-pull)

chip select:0 (don't care)

power mode: 2 (on)

bus width:  3 (8 bits)

timing spec:1 (mmc high-speed)

signal voltage: 0 (3.30 V)


regs:

CON:0x0620

HCTL:   0x0b04


*Failing scenario:*

clock:  5200 Hz

*vdd:21 (3.3 ~ 3.4 V*)

bus mode:   2 (push-pull)

chip select:0 (don't care)

power mode: 2 (on)

bus width:  3 (8 bits)

timing spec:1 (mmc high-speed)

signal voltage: 0 (3.30 V)


regs:

CON:0x8620

HCTL:   0x0d00


It is suposed that u-boot/kernel setup the MMC host based on MMC data 
durind start-up. So I guess this kind of failure is hardware related.


Any ideas?


Thanks!

[beagleboard] Re: Purchase original Beaglebone (white)

2014-09-10 Thread Edu Galvez
Just to not open a new post. 
Is the Beaglebone White discontinued?
It is really hard to find any unit in stock.

Thanks!

[beagleboard] Position of LCD in LCD3 cape

2014-09-08 Thread Edu Galvez
Hi,

We are developing a product using the LCD3 cape display, and we are trying 
to find out the drawing of the position of the display in the board. 

We have checked some units, and it seems to have high tolerances on its 
positioning.

Can anybody help us on this topic?

Thanks!

[beagleboard] Re: BeagleBone Black RTC?

2014-07-21 Thread Edu Galvez
William, don't know yet :). 
Information about this topic was confusing, so first step was to prove that 
the BBB and a Li-Po battery can keep the RTC alive.
