What can I do

How to use EEPROM

(from How to use EEPROM)

Basic

The IGEP expansion boards (except IGEP New York) provides an AT24C01B serial EEPROM memory which is connected to the OMAP via I2C (register 50).

Use i2c-tools to manage it:

i2cget <bus> <chip> <register>
i2cset <bus> <chip> <register> <value>


The following writes the value 0x22 to register 0x10 of device 0x51 on i2c bus 3:

i2cset -f -y 3 0x51 0x10 0x22
i2cget -f -y 3 0x51 0x10

How to use serial console

Once you connect DV9 cable between IGEP PARIS and Host PC. Open the serial on your PC using your preferred serial communications program (minicom) and configure the port as follows:

  • 115200
  • 8N1
  • no flow control (either software or hardware)

Open the serial port and the debug shell prompt should appear.

A detailed guide on how to connect via serial debug port can be found by following this link: Using serial debug port to communicate
