2 Description of Functional Blocks

2.1 Processor AM335x

As the basic processor, the family of TI AM335x in the case of SPBGA-N324 with suffix ZCZ is used. To clock the processor we use 24 MHz (main) and 32.768 kHz (for the work of inner RTC processor TI AM335x) crystals.

It is possible to install processor with the frequency range from 300 MHz to 1 GHz.

2.2 Memory DDR3

By default, the configuration uses memory DDR3 Samsung K4B4G1646B-HCK0 of 256 Мbite (It is possible to enlarge it to 512 Мbite).

The beginning of the physical address of DDR3 is 0x8000 0000.

2.3 Memory NAND Flash

By default, the configuration uses NAND memory Samsung K9F2G08U0CSCB0T00 of 256 Мbite (It is possible to enlarge it to 1 024 Мbite).

The memory is attached to bus GPMC with the width of 8 bit.

2.4 Power Supply Controller PMIC

As power supply controller PMIC, we use TI TPS65217C. Controller PMIC attached to bus I2C0 and its address is 0x24.

2.5 Boot Sequence for Texas Instruments AM335x

By default, the following sequence is specified: 10011 - NAND->NANDI2C->MMC0->UART0

2.6 Graphic System

The processor supports the use of a display with the resolution to 2048х2048 (to 24 bit per pixel).

The matrix has slot X9 (AXK5F60547YG) to attach LCD module TD035STEE (the resolution of 480х640, a resistive touch screen, backlight). It is possible to attach other displays supported by processor AM335x.

2.7 Audio System

The audio system is based on codec TLV320AIC3007 of Texas Instruments. It is controlled via I2C interface, the address is 0х18. To transfer audio data we use interface MCASP0 of processor AM335x.

The mono audio input is attached to microphone MK1. The mono audio output is attached to slot X6 FH02W for a speaker of 8 Ohm 0.5 W. The stereo output is attached to slot X5, SJ1-42514 Stereo Jack 2.5 mm.

The stereo input and output are attached to GSM/GPRS module, which makes it possible to make a standard cell phone.

The linear stereo input is attached to extension slot X16.



2.8 GSM/GPRS Module

GSM/GPRS module SIM800H of SIMcom is used, it supports frequencies GSM850MHz, EGSM900MHz, DCS1800MHz and PCS1900MHz, GPRS multi-slot class 12/class 10, coding schemes CS-1, CS-2, CS-3 и CS-4. The module is controlled by interface UART2 of processor AM335x. The module is attached to slot X10 for a SIM card. The module works with an external antenna attached to slot X11 U.FL Series. To indicate the work of the module orange LED VD5 is used.

2.9 WiFi/Bluetooth Module

Combined WiFi/Bluetooth module WL1835MOD of Texas Instruments is used. The external antennae are attached to slots X13 and X14.

2.9.1 WiFi

Supporting IEEE Std 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g and 802.11n Supporting 20- and 40-MHz SISO and 20-MHz 2x2 MIMO for 2.4 GHz for high capacity

80 Mbps (TCP), 100 Mbps (UDP) Supporting 2.4-GHz MRC To support data transfer 4-bit interface MMC2 of processor AM335x is used.

2.9.2 Bluetooth

Supporting Bluetooth 4.1 and CSA2. Host Controller Interface (HCI) Transport for Bluetooth Over UART Supporting Dual-Mode Bluetooth and BLE Supporting Bluetopia + LE Certified Stack Provided by TI For data transfer interface UART5 of processor AM335x is used.

2.10 GPS Receiver

GPS module MAX-M8Q-0 of U-blox is used Supporting 72-channel u-blox M8 mode, GPS L1C/A, SBAS L1C/A, QZSS L1C/A,

GLONASS L1OF, BeiDou B1. The interval between the switching on and the acceptance of coordinates (GPS) a cold

start-26 sec, hot start – 1 sec. Active external antenna GA-233 attached to slot X15 is used. For data transfer interface UART4 of processor AM335x is applied.

2.11 RTC System

It is possible to resort to 2 options: the embedded RTC system of processor AM335x and an external one based on IC PCF8563 of NXP, for data transfer interface I2C0 of processor AM335x is used, the address is 0x51.

3.2.11 The Users’ Buttons

Button S1 switches the module power on and off. It is attached to power supply controller PMIC. If you press the button when the module is switched off, the hardware enablement of the module takes place and when the module is switched on, the software shutdown takes place. If you hold the button for 8 sec, the hardware reset of the module is performed.

Button S1 is of the hardware reset of the module. It is attached to power supply controller PMIC. If you press the button, the hardware reset of the module takes place.

3.2.12 Information LEDs

There are 4 LEDs for work modes indication:

Name Color Indication Name Color Indication

VD3 green Switch indicator VD5 orange GSM module

VD4 orange Battery charging б

VD6 green Wi-Fi/Bluethooth module



4 Module Firmware Module Firmware per UART0

1. Make sure that the terminal program (examples of minicom in OS Linux and Tera Term in Windows are taken only) after the power is switched on shows symbols “CCCCCC”. If this does not happen, the prime load mode for UART0 shall be set.

2. Switch off the module power. 3. For minicom it is important to specify the buffers size (1K) to transfer via

XMODEM/YMODEM: Ctrl-a o, File transfer protocols, and write commands sx -vv -k and sb -vv -k.

4. Transfer via Xmodem the start loader: Ctrl-a, s, xmodem select file u-bootspl.bin (select by pressing space bar twice and go to catalogs) and press enter. For Tera Term select File->Transfer->XMODEM->Send… and indicate file u-boot-spl.bin.

5. Switch on the power and wait to see the current percentage of the loading (for Linux PC only).

6. After ROM is successfully loaded, the code initiates the start loader that waits to transfer u-Boot loader via Y modem protocol.

7. After the second “CCCC”, send via Y modem: Ctrl-a, s, ymodem select file uboot.img and press enter. For Tera Term select File->Transfer->YMODEM->Send… and indicate file u-boot.img.

8. If everything is successfully loaded you can see the invitation of U-Boot#
