USB_SS#1 (G39, G40, D39, D40) cannot enumerate usb3.0 camera at some time

len.xiao · March 1, 2019, 7:50am

I’m use TUSB8041 usb3.0 4p hub on tx2.

USB_SS#0 (F43, F44, C43, C44)
USB_SS#1 (G39, G40, D39, D40)
USB_SS#2 (G42, G43, D42, D43)

tx2 usb3.0 set to config#4

nvidia@tegra-ubuntu:~$ lsusb -t
/: Bus 02.Port 1: Dev 1, Class=root_hub, Driver=xhci-tegra/3p, 5000M
|__ Port 1: Dev 8, If 0, Class=Hub, Driver=hub/4p, 5000M
|__ Port 2: Dev 86, If 0, Class=Hub, Driver=hub/4p, 5000M
|__ Port 3: Dev 87, If 0, Class=Hub, Driver=hub/4p, 5000M

now USB_SS#1 usb3.0 4p hub cannot enumerate devices at some time when plug in a usb3.0 device(USB3.0 camera).
we test USB_SS#0 is ok.

Hi， len

Have you tried with external power supply plugged in?

len.xiao · March 4, 2019, 3:41am

hi, alanz
yes，it is no use. we plug in usb3.0 u disk, test 80 times it is ok.

usb3.0 camera enumerate need 4~5s， but usb3.0 U disk less than 1s.

USB_SS#0 (F43, F44, C43, C44)
USB_SS#1 (G39, G40, D39, D40)
USB_SS#2 (G42, G43, D42, D43)

All three USB3.0 have this problem，But the probability is different.

DaneLLL · March 4, 2019, 6:12am

Hi,
Do you re-plug the device after doing ‘echo 1’? Does it happen to USB_SS#2?

len.xiao · March 5, 2019, 5:43am

hi，
No, ‘echo 1 > value’ enabled vbus 5V. yes,it is happened to USB_SS#2.

DaneLLL · March 5, 2019, 5:57am

Hi,
Can you please try to enable/disable the regulator like:

DaneLLL · March 6, 2019, 3:18am

Hi,
Could you share HW layout for reference?

DaneLLL · March 7, 2019, 7:42am

Hi,
After comparing your layout with oem design guide. It seems to have some deviation. In Figure 15 of oem design guide, we have
USB_SS0 TX+/- connect to 0.1uF capacitance

But in your desgin, we can see difference:
USB_SS0 TX+/- connect to resistor
USB_SS0 RX+/- connect to 0.1uF capacitance
USB_SS1 RX+/- connect to 0.1uF capacitance
USB_SS2 RX+/- connect to 0.1uF capacitance

Have you checked the signal quality? Maybe the difference takes effect in signals.
Also do you try other devices such as USB3 pendrives? Is it specific to the cameras? Or happens to other USB3 devices also?

len.xiao · March 7, 2019, 8:02am

hi，
USB 3.0 ophthalmogram test is ok, we try usb3.0 U disk test 100 times ok.

the usb3.0 camera enumeration succeeded need 5~7s, usb3.0 U disk enumeration succeeded need less than 1s

when enable vbus 5V.

DaneLLL · March 7, 2019, 8:36am

Hi,
Could you get support from the camera vendor? If it is specific to the USB camera, shouldn’t it be some issue in the camera itself?

len.xiao · March 7, 2019, 8:46am

hi,
The usb3.0 camera was made by our company. we test usb3.0 camera in PC it is ok.

len.xiao · March 7, 2019, 8:49am

hi,
4p hub divides four routes of usb3.0, two of which are not enumerated sometimes.

DaneLLL · March 7, 2019, 9:20am

Hi,
Does your camera pass compliance test?

Also we have guidance for passing compliance test.

kayccc · March 14, 2019, 5:00am

Hi len.xiao,

Have you clarified the cause and resolved the problem?
Any result can be shared?

Thanks

len.xiao · March 14, 2019, 8:18am

hi，kayccc
yes, it is a lot better when H2 camera stringed into a 10 ohm resistor.

luopinjing · March 15, 2019, 7:59am

We Had try serial or parallel resistors on USB signals，It seems improved, but still occured the Hub enumeration failed. Impedance value of PCB is lower than normal.
