Re: Battery recovery issues
Emiliano Pastorino wrote: Richard, I've just received a box with 60 faulty batteries inside, so I'll be playing with them for the next few years... :) I did a bat-recover on one of them for about 18 hours and I noticed this: When I run watch-battery, it still says No battery. I did a full-reset of the XO but nothing happened, it still says No battery. Then I loaded batman.fth and ran bat-charge and I got a nice output. All the values seemed to be OK when charging or discharging the battery. I tried batman-start; 6a bat-set-status; batman-stop and I could see tha 6a in the first block, but watch-battery still says No battery. Hmm.. and see-bstate shows 0 1 2 over and over? There is one more battery debugging tool available. Its called bat-debug and bat-debug-log.with the power for the cpu and for the The both read the same thing but bat-debug-log will write the contents to 'disk:\batdbug.log'. 'disk' is USB or SD depending on what you have inserted. bat-debug just does the screen and serial port. If the 1-wire state machine is just looping over and over bat-debug won't provide much more info. It might however point out what part of the state machine is failing. That part of the code has a pretty large number of if() clauses all lumped into the same state. Procedure: 1) Remove the problem battery. 2) Boot machine and stop boot at OFW prompt. 3) run bat-debug (or bat-debug-log) 4) insert the battery 5) let it run for one or 2 screenfuls of info 6) hit a key to stop bat-debug send me the info. Note, that you don't run batman-start before you run bat-debug since you want the EC state machine to run and you don't need to 'fload batman.fth'. bat-debug should be in your firmware already. What is the difference between batman's bat-charge and watch-battery? Tell me if I'm wrong, but I think that bat-charge reads battery info directly from it, and watch-battery takes that info from the EC. So, the problem could be that the EC isn't synced with the battery. Am I right? Correct. Batman code takes over the 1-wire communication bus from the EC and talks directly to the battery. 'watch-battery' uses EC commands to read what the EC thinks. So if the EC state machine is bailing out for some reason then you will get odd things from watch-battery where batman only needs the 1-wire to work. So long I could recover 2 batteries out of 4. I'll try more batteries, the batteries that seem to be ok now are the same model (GP NTA2490), and the other two (the ones I couldn't recover even with bat-recover) are BYD LP183662AR-2S. I have no idea what this number is. The serial number I would need is the long string of digits under the barcode in the center of the battery. If you want me to do a particular test with any of these batteries, just ask and I'll share my results with you. Well. I'd like to make sure the firmware has the diagnostics that will allow you to figure out whats up with the battery. So depending on what see-bstate and bat-debug info is I'll perhaps need to make new firmware or new diags in batman.fth to try and figure out whats up. -- Richard Smith rich...@laptop.org One Laptop Per Child ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
Re: I2C bus assignments
I have a bad feeling about swiping the CRT I2C. It kind of leaves a needless landmine for video driver authors who would prefer to unify their code (XO and non-XO hardware) as much as possible. Suppose a video driver attempts E-DDC. Is it going to confuse some non-compliant I2C device or actually hit the address in use? Bit banging the DCON sounds OK. Your comment about the DCON bug makes this appealing, but is also worrisome. Is this not fixed in current chips? (if not fixed, and you do decide to fix it, please also make the two image quality fixes I requested) You didn't mention bit banging the camera. If you're bit banging anyway, the fact that the camera isn't correct I2C is no issue. (please tell me I2C is for control only, not streaming video) You didn't mention bit banging the clock generator. Impossible? ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel

You don't have to drive the LED directly from the microcontroller; you only need to be able to switch it and sense the voltage while watching the time. The photocurrent causes the inherent capacitance to discharge faster (or slower? I forget). The time scale is really short, but that's no problem for today's chips. You could parallel a (very small) capacitor across the LED to make it more sensitive. Any of the four existing LEDs would be appropriate: wireless A and B, battery, or power.

A reverse biased LED doesn't output much current at all - even photo sensor diodes that are tuned for the job. Have a look at this page for some ambient light sensors that you would find in a cell phone - http://www.avagotech.com/pages/en/optical_sensors/ambient_light_photo_sensors/light_sensor_photo_sensor/. The basic variety has a photodiode and a small current amplifier. The output current is logarithmically related to the lux level. If hook a series resistor to the output, the voltage across vs lux is also logarithmic. Besides the current amplifier, these devices have other advantages. First, they have a spectral sensitivity that's tuned to the human eye, so infrared light (say a campfire) will not skew the reading. Second, they have a large optical window so the readings won't change when you tilt your phone/laptop slightly. These little sensors are less than $0.25 in large quantities (perhaps by quite a bit), and they are being used more and more in cell phones to reduce backlight power in low light environments. It's well worth the price if you get 10% more battery life on average. Quantifying the impact on battery life is tricky because there are a lot of assumptions. Anyways, a normal LED might work under certain circumstances. I don't have the experience to say one way or another.

The back-bias voltage is a sensitive topic. If you could guarantee periodic clearing of the integrator, I could provide up to 10V or so.
