How to Test Custom SPI Devices on the Jetson AGX Orin EVK

channinglan · June 28, 2022, 6:22am

I can see
SPI_MISO_LVS , SPI_MOSI_LVS ,SPI_CS0_LVS ,SPI_CS0_LVS ,SPI_CS1_LVS
is SPI1 bus

So can I connect directly to a custom SPI device for testing ?

Register as a spidev device to read and write directly ?

Please refer to Jetson/TX2 SPI - eLinux.org, concept is similar.

Is there any PINMUX documentation for ORIN??
pinmux configuration files not bootloader/t186ref/BCT/tegra186-mb1-bct-pinmux-*.cfg.
seems to be modified to tegra234-mb1-bct-pinmux-p3701-0000.dtsi

ORIN SPI3 in 40 pin conn
So I modify tegra234-mb1-bct-pinmux-p3701-0000.dtsi
spi3_sck_py0 {
nvidia,pins = “spi3_sck_py0”;
nvidia,function = “spi3”;
nvidia,pull = <TEGRA_PIN_PULL_DOWN>;
nvidia,tristate = <TEGRA_PIN_DISABLE>;
nvidia,enable-input = <TEGRA_PIN_ENABLE>;
nvidia,io-high-voltage = <TEGRA_PIN_DISABLE>;
nvidia,lpdr = <TEGRA_PIN_DISABLE>;
};

		spi3_miso_py1 {
			nvidia,pins = "spi3_miso_py1";
			nvidia,function = "spi3";
			//nvidia,pull = <TEGRA_PIN_PULL_DOWN>;
			//nvidia,tristate = <TEGRA_PIN_DISABLE>;
			nvidia,pull = <TEGRA_PIN_PULL_UP>;
			nvidia,tristate = <TEGRA_PIN_ENABLE>;				
			nvidia,enable-input = <TEGRA_PIN_ENABLE>;
			nvidia,io-high-voltage = <TEGRA_PIN_DISABLE>;
			nvidia,lpdr = <TEGRA_PIN_DISABLE>;
		};

		spi3_mosi_py2 {
			nvidia,pins = "spi3_mosi_py2";
			nvidia,function = "spi3";
			nvidia,pull = <TEGRA_PIN_PULL_DOWN>;
			nvidia,tristate = <TEGRA_PIN_DISABLE>;
			nvidia,enable-input = <TEGRA_PIN_ENABLE>;
			nvidia,io-high-voltage = <TEGRA_PIN_DISABLE>;
			nvidia,lpdr = <TEGRA_PIN_DISABLE>;
		};	


		spi3_cs0_py3 {
			nvidia,pins = "spi3_cs0_py3";
			nvidia,function = "spi3";
			nvidia,pull = <TEGRA_PIN_PULL_UP>;
			nvidia,tristate = <TEGRA_PIN_DISABLE>;
			nvidia,enable-input = <TEGRA_PIN_ENABLE>;
			nvidia,io-high-voltage = <TEGRA_PIN_DISABLE>;
			nvidia,lpdr = <TEGRA_PIN_DISABLE>;
		};

		spi3_cs1_py4 {
			nvidia,pins = "spi3_cs1_py4";
			nvidia,function = "spi3";
			nvidia,pull = <TEGRA_PIN_PULL_UP>;
			nvidia,tristate = <TEGRA_PIN_DISABLE>;
			nvidia,enable-input = <TEGRA_PIN_ENABLE>;
			nvidia,io-high-voltage = <TEGRA_PIN_DISABLE>;
			nvidia,lpdr = <TEGRA_PIN_DISABLE>;
		};

And short circuit these two pins

but still not working

How to update only pinmux config ?
How to confirm whether pinmux has been updated successfully?

WayneWWW · June 30, 2022, 3:30am

You can directly read the register after you boot up.

channinglan · June 30, 2022, 3:51am

root@user-desktop:/home/user# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tegra_pinctrl_reg
cat: /sys/kernel/debug/tegra_pinctrl_reg: No such file or directory

Why no tegra_pinctrl_reg ??

WayneWWW · June 30, 2022, 3:53am

I mean you can directly read the register which you just posted in above comment by using devmem.

channinglan · June 30, 2022, 5:24am

I set it directly and it seems to work
But why can’t I modify Linux_for_Tegra/bootloader/t186ref/BCT/tegra234-mb1-bct-pinmux-p3701-0000.dtsi to take effect

Could you share which file got modified and how you flash?

Then please check if any device tree node is using this pin.

Hi,

Just want to confirm. What is current status?
You can make SPI work if you directly modify the pinmux register directly?

I directly modify the pinmux register

How to confirm pinmux update ??

channinglan · July 11, 2022, 1:16am

Regarding the pinmux update, how can I confirm it?

va11 · July 20, 2022, 6:12am

Are you trying to configure SPI1 as master ? Can you specify the ask here ? I will try to provide you the pinmux settings
