[beagleboard] BeagleBone Black PRUs & Matlab

Hi, I'm an engineering student and for my final project I'm working with sensor fusion and computer vision algorithms for pose estimation. I would like to use the PRUs on my BeagleBone Black for the sensor fusion part, given the strict realtime requirements of my application but I find it to

[beagleboard] PRU Clocks phase shifting with respect to each other??

2015-12-23 Thread Bill Gray
Hi, I am trying to debug a weird behavior. I have code running on PRU 1 that creates a specific waveform on 8 pru output pins (pru1_0 - pru1_7). I am trying to confirm the accuracy of my PRU 1 code by running code on PRU 0 that watches the pins on PRU 1 (physically linked) and measures their

You should really have your test equipment running in a different clock domain than your device under test, and then trigger off your unit under test. Very small phase or time differences between the unit under test and the test equipment can lead to major data differences. You are trying to

Thanks Graham. Yeah, I know. The thing is that having the two share the same chip makes things really fast. In my app I need to make about 125M different measurements, so the difference between a 1ms test and a 10ms makes a huge difference. In fact, I don't need accuracy down to a single

Thanks so much guys. The suggestion of using two BBB is great for getting the test program off the same clock domain. The issue there for me is speed. The easy way to get two BBBs working together would be to have them talk via ethernet. This would be quite slow compared to my current setup

Bill: I don't think the PRU clocks are externally available. I don't know what your interface looks like, but if there was a clock line involved in the data transfer, or marking when data is valid, I would look at inverting or adding some delay in that line going to the receiving PRU. If your

A few other bits of information is needed to get to the bottom of this. - When you run the code on PRU0, what is running on PRU1? Do you put it in reset or at least have it doing something that cannot interfere? - Is everything in the local memory to the PRU in use or in the shared memory? - Is

Could you use a second BBB as the capture device instead? That would isolate the PRUs from each other and possibly allow for the HW capture that was mentioned. -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google
