Hi all!
Just in time before OsmoDevCon, I managed to releaes a new version of
the SIMtrace firmware.
The list of changes is quite extensive and should address a number of
the reliability problems that people have experienced.
The changes include:
* don't activate pass-through and LDO supply for the sim card at
the same time, leading in power leaking from simtrace into phones
* fix a watchdog timer misconfiguration leading to occasional watchdog
resets
* fix detection of sim insert/removal
* better VCC_PHONE detection
* reduce the amount of debug logging on the serial console and replace
it by statistics (count of bytes, overruns, parity errors, etc)
* statistics can be read from the UART by pressing 't'.
* no longer crash the simtrace firmware if no simtrace host program is
running
Using this v0.5 firmware and a pretty aggressiv program causing lots of
traffic (hunz' simdump) on a cm3121 reader at card Fi(9) Di(4) ratio 64
didn't cause any lost bytes or SIMtrace resets for me anymore.
Any feedback is appreciated.
Regards,
Harald
