BeagleBoard.org has joined the Zephyr Project as an Associate Member, formalizing a collaboration that has been growing for years. Zephyr is already a familiar tool across the Beagle ecosystem. Support for Beagle platforms has been developed upstream alongside the community, and many Beagle users are already using Zephyr for real-time, low-level, and microcontroller-class development (even […]

Hello everyone. A typical work week. Let’s go over everything. Fix MicroBlocks CI Recently, the MicroBlocks CI which builds microblocks dev and pilot branches have been failing. After a bit of testing, I found that a cmsis_6 zephyr module is now required by BeagleConnect Freedom. The CI was fixed by allowing the module in the […]
Hello everyone. I ended up skipping some weekly updates since there was not much to talk about. Maybe I should make this series a bi-weekly thing instead of weekly updates. Anyway, I will be going over things from all the missed weeks as well. Let’s get started. Zephyr Add MAIN domain USARTs for PocketBeagle 2 […]
Hello everyone. A typical work week. Let’s go over everything. Use extlinux in Armbian images Thanks to all the amazing work by Andrei Aldea, PocketBeagle 2 and other BeagleBoard.org boards support Armbian. By default, it seems Armbian uses the old uEnv.txt file to specify the boot entry. This is fine, but the newer extlinux.conf is […]
Hello everyone. A typical work week. Let’s go over everything. Zephyr support for PocketBeagle 2 PocketBeagle 2 is a single board computer with AM62xx soc, and the primary supported OS is Linux. We provide Debian-based images for the board, with initial support for Armbian. This is what most people will be using it with. However, […]
Hello everyone. A typical work week. Let’s go over everything. PocketBeagle 2 M4 GPIO Support Initial ZephyrRTOS support for PocketBeagle 2 M4 core was merged last week. This only included tested support for UART (RX: P2.05, TX: P2.07). It is possible to enable GPIO and I2C using overlays, but there are no examples at the […]
