2.7 Building the Linux image
Note that building the Linux image from scratch is a time-consuming task. Even with powerful
machine and fast internet connection it might take few hours compiling. Some Linux distributions
might lack the tools required to compile/build/execute scripts/download from repository – how to
get those is not discussed below.
The Linux image is created and https://github.com/Freescale/fsl-community-bsp-
platform. For the test here we used Debian 6.0 with GNOME visual libraries. The steps we did:
1) From the terminal created folder “bin” in home folder:
user@dist$: mkdir bin
user@dist$: cd bin
Add bin directory to PATH in order to do the next steps easier. Else navigate to the right folders.
2) Installed `repo` utility needed for the bitbake file fetching from the repository:
user@dist$: curl https://dl-ssl.google.com/dl/googlesource/git-repo/repo > ~/bin/repo
user@dist$: chmod a+x ~/bin/repo

- Classic jtag debug 33
- It is good idea to check the datasheet of the imx233 processor for all the options in the digital control block the processor s datasheet should be always the first piece of paper you consult when dealing with electronics 34
- Notice that the pad numeration is written at the bottom of olinuxino maxi under the microsd card connector please check the manual part for microsd card for a schematic of the pins 34
- Notice that the pad numeration is written at the bottom of olinuxino maxi under the microsd card connector 35
- Sd mmc slot 35
- The microsd card slot is a standard 8pin connector 35
- We have tested a number of microsd cards on the olinuxino boards and all of them worked fine regardless manufacturer or capacity however keep in mind that some of the lower quality microsd cards might draw too much current from the slot which might cause power state problems if you suspect the microsd card is causing problems please try using another one of better quality for better results 35
- Uext module 36
- Gpio general purpose input output 40pin connector 37
- 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 pin column shows connector number and does not represent the naming on the bottom of the board 37
- The uext pinout is also printed at the bottom of the board under the connector 37
- The hardware is associated differently in the linux following the gpio naming conventions suggested in the imx233 datasheet you can check the connection between linux naming of the pin olimex naming of the pin and the consecutive connector pin number in the table below the ones filled with not implemented doesn t have linux support by the time of writing and will be updated overtime linux gpio is the one you should use in linux the one in the datasheet olinuxino name is the pin as written on the bottom of the board olinuxino gpio connector 38
- Below you can find the gpio_con as seen in the schematic 39
- Is the consecutive number of pins with bat being pin 1 and gnd 40 note that if olinuxino name starts with p and then is followed by a number x the px is the name written on the bottom of the board under the connector with white ink if olinuxino name is other text it is a signal used for the hardware of the board but still can be controller by the linux it can t be found at the gpio connector though 39
- When looking at the bottom of olinuxino maxi near the gpio connector there is also an additional gnd pad named gnd_pin which is a fast way to have access to a ground signal 40
- Usb hosts 41
- Lan connector 42
- More info about the power supply can be found in chapter 5 of this manual 42
- Pwr jack 42
- The ethernet connectivity is handled by the lan9512 controller which also incorporates a usb module in it the signals found on the ethernet connector are listed in the table below 42
- The power jack used is the typical 2 mm one used by olimex in most of our products you should provide between 6 and 16 volts 1a to the board 42
- The two leds on the front side of the lan connector show the state of the ethernet the meaning behind the different states can be found in the table below 42
- Battery connector 43
- Headphones and line in connector 43
- Standard audio jack and phone jack are mounted for the audio interfacing 43
- The headphones resistance is 16 ohms 43
- The pins are also written on the top of the board in the base of the connector 43
- When using the battery connector keep in mind that it is an energy solution that wouldn t be able to power the board and all the peripherals the voltage of a 3 v lipo battery would be enough to power the processor and the memory but won t be enough to power the lan and the usb hosts 43
- Boot mode positions 44
- Composite video connector 44
- The composite video is the connector you should use if you wish olinuxino maxi video output on a monitor 44
- The imx233 can boot the operating system from different locations the default location for the linux files we used is the microsd card there are 4 four jumpers responsible for the boot location d03 d02 d01 and d00 they are located on the top of the board between the processor and 40pin gpio connector note that the jumpers are smd type and opening a jumper would require cutting closing a jumper would require soldering to be able to do the quoted operations you will need basic engineering skills and experience you can check below the table or the schematic for the correct positions value of 1 means the jumper is closed 44
- The signal is lead to the middle of the connector the outside part is the gnd 44
- The whole signal is controlled by pin 104 from the imx233 processor 44

- Introduction to the chapter 54
- After some series changed c83 to 20pf from 100pf the problem was that the debian 3 1 image does not recognize mass storage drive other usb devices can be recognized the capacitor value is critical because if 100pf is placed the board starts better on battery but does not recognize any mass storage drive if 10pf is placed the mass storage drive is recognized but the board starts more difficult only with battery supply so the compromise is 20 pf 57
- Board revision 57
- C1 c23 and c24 changed from 33pf to 15pf 57
- Replaced the package of the microsd card with an easier to place one 2 fixed the accidentally mirrored lipo print at the bottom 3 changed c23 c24 to 10pf from 4 pf the 4 pf capacitors allow better start of the board but affect the video output quality since the frequency gets disturbed 10pf is a good compromise 57
