Power

The power connector is a 5V 4mm (shield) x 1.7mm (pin) center positive connector. It takes 5V only. Note that this connection is identical to that of the original Sony PSP, so power cables intended for that console also work for the CI20.

State Current draw @ 5V
Power off 0 mA
Suspended 30 mA
Idle (no devices plugged in, Wi-Fi off) 210 mA
Maximum usage (Ethernet, Wi-Fi, SDcard, CPU, GPU all stressed) 750 - 800 mA
Device Current draw @ 5V
HDMI trace
Wi-Fi - in use 100 mA
Wi-Fi - idle trace with spikes of around 40 mA
Ethernet - in use 150 mA
Ethernet - idle 120 mA
CPU + Memory - in use (compared to idle) 90 mA
SDCard - writing 90 mA
SDCard - reading 60 mA

HDMI

Full sized HDMI connection with audio out support as well. The HDMI block on the JZ4780 supports HDMI v1.4a.

USB A connector (left)

Paralleled with the mini-OTG connector.

USB A connector (right)

Connected to the EHCI USB controller in the SoC.

USB mini-OTG connector

Is paralleled with the left hand USB A connector - do not plug into both of these at once. Has the OTG VBUS controlled by the jumper next to it.

OTG VBUS jumper

Controls the VBUS for the OTG ports-

Jumper shorted = HOST mode.

Jumper not shorted = Device mode.

Ethernet

10/100 RJ45, connects to the DM9000 chipset.

Audio

Standard 4-pin headset connector, with auto OMTP/CTIA detection (so should work with any standard 4-pin headset).

Button

The button between HDMI and Ethernet is not a reset button.

It is boot_select0. Combined with JP3, it can be used to boot the CI20 from the USB.

It can also be used as a gpio once the CI20 is powered up. The boot_sel0 pin is connected to PD17.

Pinmux options can be checked to see which gpio is PD17 in kernel you booted.

In the 3.15 kernel, the gpio is number 113.

You can export the gpio via

echo 113 > /sys/class/gpio/export

And then use it.

Boot mode selector

See the silkscreen on the board and the section at the end of the JZ4780 programmers manual. Fundamentally you can boot from the on-board NAND or direct off the SDcard without having to press the button during boot. There is also a USB boot function available, but it is not a standard DFU type boot, and requires JZ4780 specific host support.

BOOT_SEL[2:1:0] JP3 Jumper (BOOT_SEL1, PD18) SW1 Button (BOOT_SEL0, PD17) Boot Mode
110 Pins 1 & 2 shorted Not pressed NAND flash at CS1
100 Pins 2 & 3 shorted Not pressed SD Card at MSC1
111 Pins 1 & 2 shorted Pressed USB device
101 Pins 2 & 3 shorted Pressed SD NAND flash at MSC0

SDcard

Standard pinout full sized SD/MMC slot that can be used for direct booting, or for bulk storage (standard MTD support under Linux). It is wired to the MSC0 block in the SoC.

Camera

Closeup of back of compatible camera
Camera unit fitted

The camera connector is 24 pin (26 pins on the schematic - two of which are the side ground solder tabs on the connector itself - the actual cable interface is 24 pin), and CMOS DVP 8-bit camera compatible.

The Omnivision OV5640 5Mpixel unit can be used with the CI20 (often labelled FD5640 on the actual part)

The connector installed on the CI20 is 24-PIN 0.5Pitch Bottom Contact FPC Connector

A camera module reported to be working by a community member here

Note Be aware that there are some SMT components directly under where the camera unit sits. If your camera unit has a conductive rear surface then this may short out on the board. Symptoms we have seen include board resets. Please insulate the area either on the PCB or the back of the camera unit to avoid this.

IR

The CI20 has an infrared remote control receiver (part IRM-2638A, carrier frequency 37.9kHz), which is connected to GPIO PE3 for software decoding.

LED

The CI20 board features a dual colour red & blue LED. It is controlled by GPIO PF15, which also controls the USB VBUS supply. When PF15 is high the LED lights red, when PF15 is low it lights blue. Software cannot power off the LED. A simple way to toggle the LED colour is to write to the PFPAT0S & PFPAT0C registers from the U-boot shell, in order to toggle the PF15 GPIO. The following example will toggle the colours rapidly, leading to the LED appearing purple:

while true; do mw.l 0xb0010548 0x8000; mw.l 0xb0010544 0x8000; done

Dedicated UART header

OTP and MAC address formats

The following data is stored in the JZ4780 OTP ROM/efuse. This data can be accessed from Linux via the sysfs path of

/sys/devices/platform/jz4780-efuse/

The C definition of the actual efuse area data format is:

struct __packed__ otp {
    uint32 serial_number;  /* As a decimal, huge range */
    uint32 date; /* ISO8601 yyyymmdd format-ish as an int – for instance ‘20140527’d for May 27th 2014 */
    char manufacturer[2];  /* ascii 2-character encoding of manufacturer – ‘NP’ == Nopa */
    unsigned char mac[6]; /* six byte/48bit MAC address stored as 8-bit integers */
};

Board Revisions and changes

Revision B (current production)

This is the current board being sold.

Changes

  • Board is now purple in color
  • DRAM part change. Hynix DDR3 H5TQ2G83CFR-H9C to Samsung K4B2G0846Q-BYK0 . No layout change/firmware
  • The board ships with a USB Power cable.
  • Fix in silk screen boot select and logo.

Revision A

  • Pre-production limited release.
  • Part of the developer giveaway.

Accessories

Note: All parts are untested and links are given as a reference for specification only.

The following are possible accessories that can be used for the board.

USB Serial TTL Adaptor (Raspberry Pi compatible)

The onboard serial is 3.3V TTL compatible. The following link is an example part

http://www.digikey.co.uk/product-detail/en/TTL-232R-RPI/768-1204-ND/4382044

Power supply

PSP

The CI20 power connector is the same as the one used for the Sony PSP. So a PSP power supply can directly work.

USB Power supply

Alternatively, you can use a USB-PSP cable with any standard smartphone/tablet USB PSU

USB PSP Power cable

Note: There is a lot of variation in these cables and USB power supplies. If your board randomly dies, power supply/cable can be a possible issue.

USB WiFi Adapters

USB WiFi adapters usually rely on closed source firmware blobs. And in-tree kernel support depends on the actual chipset in them.

Devices with different/same model numbers can have slightly different device id's and chipsets. This makes driver support tricky.

The following devices have been tested.

Name Chipset Firmware State Notes 3.0.8 Notes 3.18 +
CSL WLAN USB ADAPTER 300Mbps. Mod Nr: 22844/20140520SZ001 Reaktec RTL8192SU rtlwifi/rtl8712u.bin Does not work. There is an out of tree driver that 'might' work. Check https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/drivers/rtl819x#rtlwifi Works (r8712u staging driver)
Edimax EW-7811Un lsusb says RTL8188CUS, Realtec RTL8192CU driver works rtlwifi/rtl8192cufw.bin Works. Needs kernel recompile. Not yet included in default Debian images If driver is compiled in kernel, it might seem like a boot hang. But its because it is searching for firmware. Either load firmware in kernel too. Or compile driver as module. Works
