Re: batter charging interface / iota madc block

Have you turned the Auxiliary DAC on ? It has its own power control bit and bit 5 (ADACS) in TOGBR1 hat to be set to turn the Auxiliary DAC on. I just did a quick test with a C123, and the following seems to work: twl3025_reg_write(TOGBR1, 1 << 5); // turn ADAC on twl3025_reg_write(AUXDAC, 1000); delay_ms(1500); twl3025_reg_write(AUXDAC, 0); twl3025_reg_write(TOGBR1, 1 << 4); // turn ADAC off Best regards, Dieter -- Dieter Spaar, Germany spaar(a)mirider.augusta.de

batter charging interface / iota madc block
by Joachim Steiger 28 Feb '10

28 Feb '10

sorry for not writing anything earlier, but i'm currently moving so i'm a bit short of time. i have been working on the bci and madc block already, so if you are not already done, i'd like to do that. its a bit tricky since one needs to do quite a lot to charge the battery correctly, but in the end we could even charge nimh and i guess small lead batterys also if we want to (with different code). i have done the irq handlers, the charger plug in detection and the async madc stuff is already working. it just needs some cleanup before commit. about the bci stuff: i'm now done reading and understanding the iota datasheets and appnotes (the latter one having invaluable information not in the datasheets). 'just' need to get it written down in code and debug it. ;) summary: if you can live with charging your batteries for another week or 2, just try figuring out the ringer and or vibra for example ps: according the the schem the vibra should be controlled by the auxdac of iota. i poked it and some enable bit few minutes, but couldnt get it doing anything. so there is still a mystery or 2 left. kind regards -- roh

Bootloader
by Ingo Albrecht 28 Feb '10

28 Feb '10

Hi everyone Without further introduction and in a similar manner to laforge's last mail I would like to note that I am working on a bootloader that will allow for larger binaries in RAM and flexible flashing. To avoid troublesome interaction between the Calypso bootrom (which we use for interrupt redirection) and CFI support, I have decided to go for an interrupt-less approach. So don't be surprised to see me committing a polling mode to fundamental drivers (keypad, uart) sometime soon. Luckily, the required changes are trivial. I'll push my branch sometime soon, just dropping a line to keep everyone informed. Feel free to drop a line in case you are interested in other flash-based tasks like hammering out linkage details and implementing some kind of filesystem. Greetings prom

C155 display driver
by Harald Welte 28 Feb '10

28 Feb '10

Hi! Just to avoid any possible duplicate work: A member of this list already has a working C155 color display driver. So if you were thinking of working on this: Please rather do another TODO item. I'm supposed to be merging that driver during the next couple of days. Cheers, Harald p.s.: I'm back in Berlin now, will be working with zecke of getting layer2 (bi-directional) up and running. -- - Harald Welte <laforge(a)gnumonks.org> http://laforge.gnumonks.org/ ============================================================================ "Privacy in residential applications is a desirable marketing option."

Motorola C200
by Tiago Maluta 27 Feb '10

27 Feb '10

Hi, First I'd like to thank all people involved with the project. I don't know about GSM but as Harald said [1] I can contribute with microcontroller development. I have an old functional Motorola C200 phone. I'd like to know if it's possible use it? I've search for some information about C200 baseband processor without success, so I'm asking in the list.

Re: [airprobe-main] Cell phone tracking using ss7 hlr lookups

Hi Yanis, I'm CCing the OsmoconBB list who could perhaps help setup a MSC-GPS data collector.

Creating the {MSC -> location} mapping database would be a very worthwhile exercise. The data collection would have to happen from phones. Either we create an application for one of the popular phone platforms (Symbian, Android, iPhone). Anybody on the list knows if these phones expose the MSC number to application software? Alternative, the Osmocon project could probably expose the MSC information easily. The project is still in early stages and it will take a few months until a collector software could be running. I wonder if any of the supported Motorola phones have GPS? > Forgive my ignorance on all-things-gsm, I am just beginning exploring!

Where to start?
by Huseyin Turan 25 Feb '10

25 Feb '10

Hi; It is really a good work. Congratulations... I hope to develop in this project. Although I do not have any experience about microcontroller development and gsm, I think I can do. I can develop with C or C++. Does anyone suggest me any document, site to start? Thanks...

(TS7) or you could sync the receiver phone to a nearby bts and use a control line on the serial link to sync the transmitter phone to the receiver phone. (you need to cross-connect the serial ports on the phones for signalling anyway.) andreas

You need a very good clock sync :) But that's something that could be tried I guess. > PS Looking at pictures of ip.access Nanostation we didn't find any duplexers. > How does it work then? Or have we just missed duplexers on the photos? Nope, no duplexers. There is a TX antenna and a RX antenna. I think they are patch antenna that don't radiate sideways so that they don't leak into one another. There is also a massive chunk of metal between them to isolate :) Sylvain
