Flexible Socket Architecture (FSA)

Flexible Socket Architecture is a custom connector form-factor present on the Gateworks 'Venice-Flex' product line currently consisting of the following boards:

  • GW82xx

The goal of the FSA socket is to bridge the gap between the various socket formats:

  • MiniPCIe
  • M.2 E-Key
  • M.2 B-Key
  • M.2 M-Key

The 'FSA Header' on the VeniceFLEX SBC can connect to several different adapters, including the following:

  • GW16FE0 - FSA to M.2 A-E Key (WiFi)
  • GW16FB0 - FSA to M.2 B Key (Modems)
  • GW16FM0 - FSA to M.2 M Key (NVME)
  • GW16FP0 - FSA to Mini-PCIe (WiFi / Cellular / Etc)

These adapters and various radios are detailed below.

GW82xx Baseboard

The GW82xx has two FSA sockets:

  • FSA1 (J29): USB2.0, USB3.0, PCIE3.0 (2x 1x lanes), SPI, Power Enable
  • FSA2 (J30): USB2.0, USB3.0, PCIE3.0 (2x 1x lanes), PCM, UART (4-wire), SPI, SDIO (1.8V), GPIO (3x), Power Enable

GW16FE0 FSA M.2 E-Key Adapter

The GW16FE0 E-Key Adapter provides an M.2 E-Key socket with the following:

  • I2C (1.8V CLK/SDA/ALERT#)
  • USB2.0
  • PCIE3.0 (with PERST# 3.3V)
  • PCM (1.8V)
  • UART (1.8V 4-wire)
  • SPI (1.8V 1 chip-select)
  • GPIO1 (W_DISALBE1# 3.3V)
  • GPIO2 (W_DISABLE2# 3.3V)
  • GPIO4 (ALERT# 1.8V)
  • LED1# (OD Yellow)
  • LED2# (OD Yellow)
  • Power Enable (baseboard GPIO)

  2. There are no SPI pins defined in the M.2 specification; MOSI/MSIO/CLK above are defined as 'VENDOR SPECIFIED', SPI_SS0 (pin 64) is defined as RESERVED in v1-v3 of the M.2 specification and as VIO 1.8V in the v4 specification, and ALERT# is defined as an I2C interrupt which can also be used as a SPI interrupt.

Card: LAIRD 453-00048 LWB5+ M.2 E-Key (SDIO/UART) WiFi5 (802.11ac) / BT5.2

The LAIRD 453-00048 LWB5+ M.2 E-Key combo radio uses SDIO for WiFi and UART for Bluetooth and is based on the LAIRD 453-00047 module. The module on this board is resistor strapped to select the 1.8V SDIO for WiFi and USB for Bluetooth.

See:

Pin Considerations:

  • W_DISABLE1# WLAN_EN (needs to be asserted high for WiFi)
  • W_DISABLE2# BT_EN (needs to be asserted high for Bluetooth)

A device-tree overlay is required to bind the proper wifi and bluetooth drivers:

&usdhc1 {
        wifi@0 {
                compatible = "cypress,cyw4373-fmac", "brcm,bcm4329-fmac";
                reg = <0>;
        };
};

&uart3 {
        bluetooth {
                compatible = "brcm,bcm4330-bt";
        };
};

Card: ublox JODY M.2 E-Key PCIe/UART/PCM dual-radio WiFi6 / BT 5.3 combo

The ublox JODY-W3 M.2 E-Key dual-radio combo card is based on the NXP 88W9098 chip using PCIe/SDIO for WiFi, and UART/PCM for Bluetooth.

See also:

By default the M2-JODY-W3 card is configured to use PCIe for WiFi but a resistor strapping option on the card exists to use SDIO for WiFi (see M2-JODY-W3 datasheet). Additionally a resistor strapping option can change VIO from the default 1.8V to 3.3V for the W_DISABLE1#, W_DISABLE2# and UART_WAKE# signals.

Pin details:

  • W_DISABLE1# FSA_GPIO1 PDn (assert high to power card)
  • W_DISABLE2# FSA_GPIO2 BT_RESET (assert high to take BT out of reset)
  • LED1/LED2 unused

WiFi details:

  • WiFi6 802.11ax dual-band
  • PCIe 0x1b4b:0x2b43 (function 1) and 0x1b4b:0x2b44 (function 2)
  • supported by the mwifiex driver (as of Linux 6.6 at least you need the out-of-tree mwifiex driver)

  1. The COEX[1..3] signals are ganged to each FSA socket on the baseboard
  2. CONFIG[0..3] are inputs to the port expander with onboard pullups
  3. The SIM signals do not connect to the baseboard SoC and go directly to the on-board SIM connector

The following GPIO's are highly customizable via a dip-switch and I/O port expander:

  • W_DISALBLE1#: output level is fsa_wdisable1# gpio
  • CRDPWROFF#: output level is fsa_crdpwroff# gpio
  • RESET#: output level is fsa_reset# gpio
  • W_DISABLE2#: output level is fsa_wdisable1# gpio
  • GPIO5:
    • high-Z: gpio5_oe#=high
    • 1.8V: gpio5_oe#=low, DIP[9]=off
    • 0V: gpio5_oe=low, DIP[9]=on
  • GPIO6:
    • high-Z: gpio6_oe#=high
    • 1.8V: gpio6_oe#=low, DIP[10]=off
    • 0V: gpio6_oe=low, DIP[10]=on

Card: Telit FN980 B-Key Modem

The Telit FN980 B-Key Modem is a USB3.0/PCIe based modem. The early hardware v1.0 uses AT commands to select between PCI and USB interfaces.

Modem Details:

  • bus selection
    • v1.2 hw pin20 GPIO5 low enables PCIe mode
    • v1.0 (what we have) requires an AT command to switch back and forth. Note that when in PCI mode a device still enumerates on USB 3.0 as well (but its not used)
      DEVICE=/dev/ttyUSB3
      stty -F $DEVICE ignbrk -brkint -icrnl -opost -onlcr -isig -icanon -iexten -echo -echoe -echok -echoctl -echoke # config tty
      cat $DEVICE & # background process to read TTY responses
      at() { echo -n -e "$1\r" > $DEVICE; } # script for at cmds
      at "ATI" # identify modem
      at "AT#USBPCISWITCH?" # read switch
      at "AT#USBPCISWITCH=0" # set USB
      at "AT#USBPCISWITCH=1,5,0" # set PCI
      at "AT#REBOOT" # reboot modem
