Connecting and calibrating a display 15
One of the ways to interact with the board is via an external display with or without touchscreen component the 40 pin male connector lcd_con has the typical 0 pin step all olimex displays have corresponding 40 pin male connector you would only need a 0 female female cable for the hardware connection 15
Reboot 15
Script fex note that script bin fex contains configuration settings and definitions not only for the video output but also for the pin descriptions and names power setting and much more if you really want to modify and customize the default images to change port functions port names to disable specific peripherals you would need to be able to edit the script files please refer to the following web page for more information http linux sunxi org fex_guide 15
The cable used for connection depends on the specific board you are using and more specifically it depends on the pitch of the lcd connector of the board we have two cables both 40 pins ones but one for the bigger pitch 0 and the other for the smaller one 0 5 each of the displays listed in the table above has two connectors suitable for both cables 15
The displays recommended for the board at the moment of writing might be found in the table below 15
The displays whose names contain ts include a resistive touch screen component 15
This will convert script fex to script bin and the script bin file will be written to the microsd card 15

Consider table below when connecting the usb serial cable f according to the wire color code the rx line of the cable green wire should go to tx line of the target board the tx line of the cable red wire should go to the rx line of the target board the blue wire should go to the target s gnd line 26
Note that by default only uart0 is defined as a port suitable for serial debug you can use our usb serial cable f for debugging uext1 and uext2 are not defined by default 26
The uart0 might be used for uart communication by default it is typically used for serial terminal debug the uexts are typically used for connecting additional modules 26
The uext connectors are used as an interface for the olimex s uext modules usually boards with mod prefix in their commercial names for more information on uext please visit https www olimex com products modules uext resources uext pdf 26
Uart0 uext1 uext2 interface 26
Sd card connectors 27
Sd mmc1 slot 28
Sd mmc1 slot is the smaller microsd card slot located on the top of the board 28
The schematic related to the sd mmc1 microsd connector is shown below 28
This slot is typically used for booting the os due to the larger capacities of the microsd cards compared to sd or mmc cards it is suggested to have an sd card with a proper linux android image especially if you have ordered a version of the board without nand memory it is also recommended to use class 10 10mbyte sec card for faster read write operations lower class cards especially higher capacity ones might slow down the whole system 28
Additionally there are the wp and cp switches that are responsible respectively for sensing whether the card is locked for reading and whether there is a card inserted 29
Note that by default this connector is not suitable for booting os such support is possible but not implemented in the official software releases 29
Sd mmc slot 29
The schematic related to the sd mmc1 sd mmc connector is shown below 29
The sd mmc2 slot is located on the back of the pcb and works with the larger sd and mmc cards the connector was placed by a popular demand 29
Mic_in headphones connectors 30
Pwr jack 30
The connector can interface standard 3 mm phone connector also known stereo plug or audio plug 31
The default audio output is set to the hdmi connector for displays and monitors with built in audio speakers if you wish to use audio out you need to first disconnect the hdmi boot the board connect the audio out device speakers and finally connect the hdmi 31
The part of the schematic related to the usb_otg is shown below 31
The socket can interface standard 3 mm phone connector also known stereo plug or audio plug 31
The sy6280 responsible for the usb_otg is enabled by usb0 drv processor pin c12 thus the usb_otg is also controlled by the same signal 31
The usb_otg features low loss power distribution switch sy6280 which protects the board in case the devices you have plugged to the usb_otg attempt to draw more current than 523ma combined the maximum current available on the 5v usb_otg is exactly 523ma 31
There are two parts of a successful otg device host mode switch and usage hardware part and 31
Usb_otg connector 31
Software part 32
The connector case is also grounded 32
The hardware part is the cable to use the otg as a host you would need a mini usb to usb adapter cable do not confuse micro and mini usb to use it as a device simple 32
The software part is loading a kernel module responsible for the behavior of the board while in device mode if such software is not enabled or missing in the official distribution you would need respectively either to load the module or rebuild the kernel to enable the module there are several modules that you might need depending on what your goals are 32
Usb_host connector 33
10 100mbps operation full half duplex operation supports auto crossover detection adaptive equalization ieee 802 802 u compliant supports ieee 802 u clause 28 1 v operation with 3 v io signal tolerance and much more 34
Auto eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp 34
Auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 192 68 netmask 255 55 55 gateway 192 68 54 34
Etc network interfaces 34
Ethernet 34
For dhcp you need to enable auto detection and dhcp as shown below 34
For setting a static address please follow the pattern below 34
If you use linux then the ethernet connector might be used for ssh connection to the board if you lack any other option for debugging it might be hard to guess the correct ip of the board since it has dhcp enabled by default especially if you are in a large network it is good idea to check the default settings by exploring the linux image settings those are usually stored in 34
The eeprom memory may be used to store the mac address 34
The ethernet connector is grounded according to the standard check gnd1 and gnd2 lines on the schematics 34
The gnd is common for both levels of the usb_host 34
The lan connectivity is handled by realtek s rtl8201cp some of the features of this 10 100mbit controller are 34
Ifconfing a dhclient eth as seen after after the ifconfing command 35
Important in some debian images it is possible that the ethernet doesn t get auto detected during boot up this is done on purpose because if there is auto detection enabled and you don t want to use the ethernet connector or you have forgotten to plug a cable the start up would be greatly delayed this might be problem in the first start up to users counting only on ssh connection you can enable the ethernet after a successful boot up with 35
Important you can configure static dhcp given ip addresses in etc network interfaces 35
Hdmi connector 36
Note that there are different linux images depending whether the hdmi tv works at 50hz or 60hz refresh rate if you board runs android there is a specific option to set the appropriate hdmi output 36
Pin 14 of the hdmi is not mandatory in hdmi 1 1 c it is reserved pin in hdmi 1 it is optional 36
The part of the schematic that describes the hdmi module is shown below 36
Back view of the 15 pin connector 37
Please note that you would need a specific android image for the vga output with proper display and output settings we don t provide such image ready at the moment 37
The vga output has been tested only with the official debian linux image so far and it works fine after selecting the proper mode by executing change_display sh 37
Vga connector 37
You would probably need an adapter cable for the vga display 6 pin connector to 15 pin female rgb cable you can make the cable or the connection yourself or you can purchase the olimex made cable https www olimex com products components cables a20 vga cable note that you also have to change the script under debian as explained in chapter 2 calibrating a display 37
Sata connector and power 38
The part of the schematic describing the sata module is shown below 38
Gpio 1 general purpose input output 40pin connector 39
Gpio ports 39
Most of the pins are already defined in default operating system images some of them can be used as gpios i2c or spi without much of a problem information on the software usage of gpio ports might be found in chapters 2 gpio under debian and 2 i2c and spi under debian 39
The gpio 1 plastic connector has 14 pins the signal layout is described below 39
The yellow part of the table shows all the signals shared with the 6 pin vga connector 39
There are three gpio ports which are used generally to access unused by the board s peripherals pins however there are exceptions some of the pins might be used to easily peripherals or their levels 39
Gpio 2 general purpose input output 40pin connector 40
The gpio pins are led out on a separate 40pin connecter they allow the user to attach additional hardware check readings or perform hardware debug the gpio 2 connector numbers are printed at the bottom of the board for your convenience 40
Gpio 3 connector features the signals of axp152 on a convenient header the signals available might be used to implement power controls on the board for instance turning off the device at specific voltage level or detecting levels 41
Gpio 3 general purpose input output 40pin connector 41
Pb14 ms0 tms gpio 3 26 pb15 ck0 tck gpio 3 28 pb16 do0 tdo gpio 3 30 pb17 di0 tdi gpio 4 32 41
The jtag signals might also be accessed at this header 41
The yellow part of the table shows the jtag signals 41
These signals might be conveniently accessed on gpio 3 connector these jtag signals might be found at processor port pb the pins of the connector are respectively gpio 3 26 gpio 3 28 gpio 3 30 gpio 4 32 more specifically 41
You would also need vdd and gnd which might be found on various places on the board this information should be sufficient to establish a hardware connection the connection would depend 41
Important you need additional 40pin ribbon cable to connect an olimex display and the lcd_con 43
Lcd_con 40pin connector 43
The lcd connector is suitable for a number of olimex displays and touchscreen panels with different native resolution the smallest available is the 4 one called lcd olinuxino 4 ts 43
The lcd_con pins are led out on a separate 40pin connecter for the ease of connecting an lcd we have tested the ability of the board to interact with such a display they allow the user to attach additional hardware check readings or perform hardware debug 43
Important 44
Jumper description 44
Please note that most the jumpers on the board are smt type if you feel insecure of your soldering cutting technique it is better not to try to adjust the jumpers since it is possible to damage the board 44
To use android with display or resolution different than hdmi and 1024 600 default settings you need to upload new android image to the board these images are available here https www olimex com wiki a20 olinuxino micro using an operating system nand flash in debian linux you would need to start a start a shell script to change the built in the image resolution settings start it with change_display_a20_olinuxino sh and follow the instructions please refer to chapter 2 changing the default image resolution for more details 44
With native screen resolution of 480 272 through the 7 one named lcd olinuxino 7ts with 800 480 to the 1024 600 10 lcd olinuxino 10ts 44
