Connectors

Starting with the power connector, going anti-clockwise (ish) as you face the front of the board:

Connector Schem Name Details
Power MK5 4mm shield x 1.7mm pin 5V centre positive
Audio J9 3.5mm 4-pin (stereo out + mic in), with auto-sense chip to handle both OMTP and CTIA headsets
EJTAG J58 Standard MIPS 14pin EJTAG connector
Secondary 0.1" expansion header J5 Carries 5v and 3.3v power out, transport stream, ADC, GPIO, SynchronousSerial(SPI) and MSC(SDcard) functions
HDMI J3 Full size HDMI out, including audio support
Button SW1 Boot time selector (see boot selector table). Can also be read from software, and create GPIO interrupt/ Note, this is not a reset button!
Ethernet J11 Standard RJ45 connector, with built in link and activity lights
Boot mode selector JP3 Used to choose auto-boot from NAND or SDcard slot, predominantly.
Primary expansion connector JP4 26-pin (2x13) 'RPi compatible' 0.1" pitch expansion connector, carrying power, UART, SynchronousSerial, I2C and GPIO functions.
Camera J6 24-pin DVP camera connector
IR U15 Infrared receiver
LED D5 bi-colour status LED (red/blue), wired to USB power enable line
SDcard J13 Full size SDcard slot, can be used for storage and/or direct boot
USB mini-OTG connector J8 Paralleled with the full size A connector next to it.
OTG VBUS jumper JP2 Selects VBUS enabling on OTG port to enable master or slave functionality
USB A connector (left) J24 Paralleled with the mini OTG connector (note, they are not separate ports - do not plug into both at once!)
USB A connector (right) J23 From the EHCI host controller block
UART J57 Dedicated 4-pin UART header

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.

When somebody measures the current draw - maybe add it here?

Audio

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

EJTAG

14-pin MIPS EJTAG headers. See proposed OpenOCD/wiggler support project.

HDMI

Full sized HDMI connection with audio out support as well. Can somebody confirm the HDMI version support (1.2a?), and also the number of audio out channels? (2, 5.1 ???).

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.

Ethernet

10/100 RJ45, connects to the DM9000 chipset.

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.

GPS I2C I2S GPIO PWM
  1. Note that the PWM facility is unavailable as this PWM unit is used by the Linux kernel SMP timer code
  2. Note that the GPS interface is unavailable as it is (believed to be) electrically incompliant
  3. Note that the I2S block is not useable on the header as not all I2S pins are brought out

Camera

Closeup 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)

IR

Receive only.

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

SDcard

Standard pinout full sized SD/MMC slot. Can be used for direct booting, or for bulk storage (standard MTD support under Linux). Is wired to the MSC0 block 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 - would somebody like to describe the difference between having the connector fitted or not please.

USB A connector (left)

Paralleled with the mini-OTG connector.

USB A connector (right)

Connected to the EHCI USB controller in the SoC.

Dedicated UART header

Pinout and other functions of the dedicated UART header. This is uart4 of the SoC. Note that uart0 is on the 26pin main expansion header.

Components

SoC

Is an Ingenic JZ4780 - see the data sheet and programmers manuals referenced on this page.

DDR/RAM

Comprises of four H5TQ2G83DFR-H9C 2Gbit DDR3 chips, providing 8 bits of data each, providing a 32bit DDR3 memory bus to the SoC. Anybody have details of the standard clock rate?

ROM/NAND

Is provided by a single Samsung K9GBG08UOA NAND flash, using an 8bit data interface to the SoC.

Ethernet

Is provided by a Davicom DM9000C connected vi an 8-bit interface to the SoC, providing 10/100 ethernet.

WiFi/BT

Is provided by an Ingenic IW8103, based on a Broadcom 4330, connected via SDIO to the SoC MSC1 port.

PMU

Is an Active-Semi ACT8600 specifically designed for the Ingenic JZ family of SoCs.

RTC

Is provided by a Pericom PT7C4337UE connected to the SoC via the I2C_4 bus.

Microphone switcher

The automatic 4-pin microphone switching/detection is provided by a Fairchild FSA8049 audio jack detection device.

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 strored as 8-bit integers */
};
