TX2 GPIO How to configuration

Jetson TX2 How to development GPIO , I2C, SPI,PWM

Hi 751008,

You could find answer from TX2 Configuring Pinmux GPIO and PAD section in [url]https://developer.nvidia.com/embedded/dlc/l4t-documentation-28-2-ga[/url]

Cheers

Thanks a lot !

But I Can’t using GCC Development TX2 FW, Can teach me ? Thanks!

You’ll need to be much more specific as to what it is you want to learn. What @kayccc mentioned is the starting point for all of it though because pins must be configured for a function prior to any other access or programming…if the pin isn’t configured as the GPIO of the type you need, then there is nothing you can do with it.

Hello ,
im currently having problem with my GPIO ,
in the directory sys/class/gpio
only contain folder gpiochip for 216,240,224,256,320
which all these are not point out to the GPIO J21 pinout .

im using TX2 Dev kit ,
jetpack 3.3

im using GPIO to beep a buzzer , thinking of using gpio388/GPIO26 pin .

how do i update all the contain in the GPIO directory ?

I don’t know which GPIO goes to J21, but in general (if you know the number), then check “/sys/kernel/debug/gpio” to see current configuration:

sudo -s
cat /sys/kernel/debug/gpio
exit

Actual configuration is to either export or unexport. For reference, go to “/sys/class/gpio/”, and notice files “export” and “unexport”. As soon as a particular gpio is exported there will be a symbolic link created with that number in that directory, plus the “/sys/kernel/debug/gpio” file will be updated. Example:

sudo -s
echo 388 > /sys/class/gpio/export
grep 388 /sys/kernel/debug/gpio
# will show gpio-388 config.
exit

Within the symbolic link directory which appears when a gpio is exported you can echo “in” or “out” to direction, or similar to other control files (or read via “cat value”).

hi thankyou for ur respond ,

i’d done all the above

could you please review this ;

this happen when im try to bash the file .

“su” by itself won’t work on Ubuntu since the root account is locked. You’ll need to use “sudo” (“sudo -s” puts you into a root shell…or there are similar ways, e.g., “sudo su”). Most access of “/sys” will be denied if you don’t use root permissions (which any sudo accomplishes). This is why the initial example shows “sudo -s”…to put all future commands into a root shell until running “exit”.

Example based on your script:

<b>sudo</b> /home/nvidia/Downloads/hack/buzzer.sh
