| | 180 | == VN8 GSC Battery Voltage |
| | 181 | |
| | 182 | Issue: |
| | 183 | |
| | 184 | * When the rechargeable battery is below 1.8VDC voltage, the GSC may not reset the board properly when in the default configuration which implements a 'cold boot' (power cycle) to perform system resets and reboots. This can result in a SBC that does not power back on. |
| | 185 | |
| | 186 | Workaround: |
| | 187 | |
| | 188 | * Disable GSC R0.7 so that a CPU reset (as in a U-Boot reset command, a Linux shutdown command, a Linux reboot command, and a CPU watchdog reset) only performs a warm boot and not a cold boot. One way to easily adjust this bit is with a i2c command in the bootloader as follows: |
| | 189 | {{{ |
| | 190 | i2c dev 0 && i2c mw 0x20 0 1 && i2c mw 0x20 0x1f 0xa1 |
| | 191 | }}} |
| | 192 | |
| | 193 | * Note if the board is in this non-powered condition, the GSC battery can be removed to allow the board to be re-powered and gain access to the bootloader |
| | 194 | Resolution: |
| | 195 | |
| | 196 | * For affected products, a GSC firmware update will be issued in the future which defaults this bit to warm boot. This update is recommended for all Venice board revisions. |
