Description This however only works for selected monitors with 1920x1080 and 4K resolutions. Also display seems to render extremely slowly. If the monitor is turned off and then on or is disconnected and reconnected while Armbian is running, monitor is not detected until a device reboot is performed. All of these however seems to be Khadas's kernel/u-boot limitations How Has This Been Tested? Please describe the tests that you ran to verify your changes. Please also note any relevant details for your test configuration.

Description Fixed the problem that nanopi r1 cannot boot from emmc. The reason is that uboot uses nanopineo's defconfig and dts when compiling so that it lacks the mmc2 definition.

Updated: 6.1 / 6.4 Added: 6.5 For doc sake, this update makes 6.1 slightly different than 6.4 and 6.5 in one particular area of main.c. As shown here: https://github.com/lwfinger/rtw88/commit/7746e2fa87a6687c068c9c746f6efbeee2616496 6.1 requires we use del_timer_sync, where the above releases use timer_delete_sync. Tested-on: ODROID-C4 X96-AIR BPI-CM4 (linux 6.x.y) There is no meson64-6.5 patch dir as of yet, so I didn't run an official test using Armbian. In my own personal builds, these patches all apply clean and the resulting kernel behaves as expected.

I found this GHLBD calculator on a platform selling second-hand electronic products. Three labels of this product appeal to me: “Calculator”, “Android 9.0” and “Allwinner A50“. If you only look at the appearance, this calculator is not much different from that of ordinary calculators, but the Android operating system is running on it and the screen tells me that it is definitely not an ordinary calculator. When I bought it, I only spent 69 RMB ($10 US). I didn’t really have a use case for it, but curiosity drove me to buy one. I decided to introduce it and disassemble it to check out the hardware design. Function demonstration of GHLBD calculator Press and hold the ON and OFF keys on the keyboard to turn on the calculator. The Allwinner A50 processor icon and Android logo show up in the boot animation. Here, you can preliminarily confirm that the promotional content [...] The post GHLBD Android calculator mini review – An Allwinner A50-based Android 9.0 calculator appeared first on CNX Software - Embedded Systems News.

Banana Pi BPI-M6 is an upcoming credit-card single board computer based on SenaryTech SN3680 SoC comprised of a quad-core Arm Cortex-A73 processor, a Cortex-M3 real-time core, an Imagination GE9920 GPU, and an NPU delivering up to 6 .75 TOPS. The board will ship with 4GB LPDDR4 RAM and 16GB eMMC flash. Its layout is fairly similar to the one of the Raspberry Pi 4 with four USB ports, Gigabit Ethernet, a 40-pin GPIO header, a USB Type-C port for power, and two micro HDMI ports. However, only one of those is for HDMI output, as the second is for HDMI input, and there’s also an M.2 socket for expansion. Banana Pi BPI-M6 specifications: SoC – SenaryTech SN3680 with CPU – Quad-core Arm Cortex-A73 processor up to 2.1GHz MCU – Arm Cortex-M3 real-time security core @ 250MHz GPU – Imagination PowerVR Series9XE GE9920 GPU VPU – 4Kp60 H265, H264, VP9, ​​VP8, [...] The post Banana Pi BPI-M6 SBC features SenaryTech SN3680 quad-core Cortex-A73 AI processor appeared first on CNX Software - Embedded Systems News.

Google has launched the new Chromecast with Google TV (HD) powered by an Amlogic S805X2 quad-core Cortex-A35 CPU that offers a cheaper alternative to the Chromecast with Google TV (4K) that is limited to 1080p60 resolution, instead of the 4Kp60 video output supported by the Amlogic S905X3 model. While the processor is slower, the system comes with less memory (1.5GB vs 2GB), and only supports 1080p60, it supports the more efficient AV1 video decoding and as well as A/B partitions for seamless updates since the firmware does not need to be downloaded to the internal storage before the Chromecast with Google TV (HD) specifications: SoC – Amlogic S805X2 quad-core Cortex-A35 processor with Mali-G31 MP2 GPU, 1080p60 H.265, H.264, VP9, AV1 video decoder System Memory – 1.5GB RAM Storage – 8GB eMMC flash with support for “virtual A/B updates with compression“ Video output – HDMI up to 1080p60 with HDR support [...] The post Chromecast with Google TV (HD) features Amlogic S805X2 CPU with AV1 video support appeared first on CNX Software - Embedded Systems News.

At the beginning of the year, we wrote about WCH CH32V307 RISC-V microcontroller and a development board with 8 UART ports controlled over Ethernet. I’ve now been informed of a similar, but much more compact by VCC-GND Studio named “YD-CH32V307VCT6”. Besides the 144 MHz RISC-V microcontroller, the board features a 10Mbps Ethernet port, two USB Type-C ports, SPI flash, EEPROM, a microSD card socket, and four rows of 24 pins each for a total of 96 pins exposing all pins out of the LQFP100 package. YD-CH32V307VCT6 board specifications: MCU – WCH CH32V307VCT6 32-bit RISC-V microcontroller @ 144 MHz with 256K Flash, 64K SRAM Storage – 32Mbit SPI NOR flash (W25Q32), 64kbit EEPROM (24C64), MicroSD card slot Networking – 10 Mbps Ethernet USB – 1x USB 2.0 Type-C port (High Speed: 480 Mbps), 1x USB 2.0 Type-C port (Full Speed: 12 Mbps) Expansion – 2x 48-pin headers with 2 x 12-bit [...] The post YD-CH32V307VCT6 RISC-V MCU board comes with Ethernet and plenty of I/Os appeared first on CNX Software - Embedded Systems News.
