hello,
I search to connect my irc out to a imx233 maxi, but i am a noob, can you help me ?

The answer to this question probably is not going to be useful to you.
Maybe one of those helps you:

If not, maybe you can explain your problem in more detail.

OK,
I use imx233 maxi debian kernel 3.12.
I can to use keyes KY-005 IR transmitter
i install lirc, now i find a /dev/lircd but not a lirc0
Thank for you reply
Best regards
I guess you are missing the driver/kernel module?
(I have no idea which one you need. Also this depends on how you are wiring the transmitter to the board, of course.)
If you don't know it already:
http://www.lirc.org/html/configuration-guide.htm has a quite detailed description.
HTH,
Harald
thanks,
yes, i see the problem.... :)
[ ok ] Cleaning up temporary files... /tmp.
[info] Loading kernel module lirc_dev.

my idea is connect via gpio 3.3V + gnd + gpio 33
Now, i must repair my module problem
Best regards
hummm, not find LIRC in menukernel ?.!
LIRC module exist in 3.12.6 ? or i must take a new kernel ?
Yes, 3.12 has some LIRC support. In the kernel tree it is somewhere below drivers/media/rc/ don't know about menuconfig, maybe you have to enable something else first, to make it available.
BTW, IIRC not all of LIRC has been merged into the mainline kernel. So maybe you need to get some bits from LIRC sources... (I never tried transmitting IR so I don't know much ...)
HTH,
Harald
ok, i try linux 4.5, make kernel etc work fine, i use http://www.jann.cc/2012/08/23/building_a_kernel_3_x_for_the_olinuxino_from_sources.html for help
but..

Presumably something goes wrong when jumping into the kernel - maybe wrong entry point? Or maybe your kernel wasn't loaded at all? (There is no message about it in your output.)
I never tried to load a zImage with u-boot. I'm always using uImage files. This is the metadata:
$ file uImage
uImage: u-boot legacy uImage, ARM OpenWrt Linux-4.1.13, Linux/ARM, OS Kernel Image (Not compressed), 1541248 bytes, Sun Dec 13 23:13:34 2015, Load Address: 0x40008000, Entry Point: 0x40008000, Header CRC: 0x2BED84E5, Data CRC: 0x8D0D4CB7
Maybe check your uEnv.txt against above parameters...

good small imx233 :D
Now go to try the led emiter and a lot of capter i have ( nfc, gps, gsm, etc)
Thank a lot, lambda for you support !
When i am good with mi ir emiter, i be back with config.
Best regards
I Search, i search.
But i see all exemple use GPIO, is gpio = 0 or gpio = 1
Gpio is the good way to send more complex code over IR ?
Or i must search over I2c or spi or another ?
Best regards
I'm sorry, I don't entirely understand your question (grammatically).
Which bus to use depends on what your HW supports. I think i2c and spi are rather uncommon for IR, so probably not. Maybe using the uart interface of your imx233 board is a good way to go. There is a lirc_serial module in staging, that could work. (Haven't looked at the data sheet for your transmitter, so I might be wrong.)
Using GPIOs might work too, but as this is entirely controlled by software, getting the timing right might be a bit tricky...
HTH,
Harald
Thank for you re reply,
ok, i must work with uart and understand this.
Easy on arduino, but a long way on imx linux.
You think uart and a C program ?
Best regards
Actually, if you know how to do it on arduino, it should be quite easy on linux too?
I don't think you need a C program. The lirc_serial module I mentioned previously should be fine. (If it lacks some feature you need rather fix it (and submit mainline) than write your own.)
And talking to lirc is high level stuff - so should be doable in any programming langauge, I guess.
HTH,
Harald
thk lambda, you are here
Yes, i try 4.5 kernel now i must go to mainline
arduino is more easy, take lib, and take exemple, modif this and is run.
i now try, imx233 and my new cherry trail, lot of time with arduino .....
search for mha or v outup on gpio on imx2333 versus arduino ? because my daugther wanna a led ruban with olinuxino + ir ...
where find the time for all this search, thats the question :D
Best regards
I pretty much can't parse your questions (grammatically).
HI,
if arduino can output 40 Ma per pin ( http://playground.arduino.cc/Main/ArduinoPinCurrentLimitations )
How olinuxino maxi with 12v 1.5 A can outup per pin ( gpio per exemple )
I think is more than a arduino ?
Its for ( http://www.mon-club-elec.fr/pmwiki_mon_club_elec/pmwiki.php?n=MAIN.ArduinoInitiationLedsDiversTestRubanRVB )
Yes my english is very poor :), no problem for read but speak and write....
Best Regards
The amount a uC pin can source or sink is in the uC datasheet with total limit etc.
(The Arduino data you linked to is the equivalent from an Atmel data sheet.)
So, just refer to the iMX233 data sheet.
John
imx233 pins can be configured in software (linux pinctrl driver) to use a drive strength of 4mA, 8mA or 12mA.
HTH,
Harald
Hi,
Yes i read the 1612 pages of imx233 data sheet. 8) Thk JohnS, good is to know some data sheet.
Lambda you are ok, 4mA, 8mA or 12mA
less of arduino. ( no good for led ruban, use mosfet too )
thk for all you re reply
I return to my ir emiter problem
Best Regards
Have you some link for uart (olinuxino) how to program ? ( c, bash ?)
Best Regards

hi,
simple question : How i can send data over the TXD pin on UEXT of imx233 maxi
i see /dev/ttyAPP0 but cat "booooooooo" > /dev/ttyAPP0 no work with my ir emiter... :-X
Best Regards
IIRC when I tried to output some data via echo to /dev/ttyAPP0 I had to setup the tty with some tool like stty or setserial. I don't remember the details: usually I use microcom or busybox-microcom these days.
HTH,
Harald
