Questions about GateMateA1-EVB-2M

[mastupristi]

Hello,
I have some question on GateMateA1-EVB-2M.

• I bought the card and saw that it is Rev C. Here https://github.com/OLIMEX/GateMateA1-EVB/tree/main/HARDWARE there are only Rev. A and B. Can you also publish Rev. C?
• Where can I find the VHDL or Verolog sources for the FPGA configuration with which the board is shipped?
• DirtyJtag (https://github.com/OLIMEX/GateMateA1-EVB/tree/main/SOFTWARE/dirtyJtag) is the Firmware that run on RP2040, isn't it?

best regards
Max

1. Thanks for notice. It is now uploaded.

2. No idea. Some bit file was provided by Cologne community if I remember correct. The software usage is detailed here: https://github.com/OLIMEX/GateMateA1-EVB/blob/main/SOFTWARE/ug1002-toolchain-install-latest.pdf

3. Yes, we published the uf2 file that we ship the boards with, here: https://github.com/OLIMEX/GateMateA1-EVB/tree/main/SOFTWARE/dirtyJtag

I believe we took it from here: https://github.com/colognechip/gatemate_ila/tree/main/Olimex_DirtyJTAG_firmware

It is popular board, you can find a lot of projects online, like check this one:

Hi,

No idea. Some bit file was provided by Cologne community if I remember correct. The software usage is detailed here: https://github.com/OLIMEX/GateMateA1-EVB/blob/main/SOFTWARE/ug1002-toolchain-install-latest.pdf

I found this: https://youtu.be/lMUQplZXPoM?si=BMzlcv0eBE_oDg0y
Where they referred to the 'blink' example.
It is present in the toolchain, but it needs to be edited to change the pin definition, which is set to CCGM1A1-E1 by default.
I searched on GitHub and found a couple of repositories that contain the blink example with the pin definition for Olimex:

• https://github.com/tgingold/gatemate-designs
• https://github.com/rugosi/olimex_gatemate_evb

I hope this helps others.

regards
