how to process DM355 EVM to DEEP sleeep?



hi all:   how to process DM355 EVM to DEEP sleeep?

           thx

 

  • I do not believe there is support in the kernel software to do this yet; but the ARM subsystem guide (http://focus.ti.com/lit/ug/sprufb3/sprufb3.pdf ) would be a good place to start looking on how you need to configure the hardware to sleep

  • At ARM subsystem guide the following description, but how documents are not talking about power consumption (1mv), it was done right DM355 deep sleep? Please advise! Thank you!

    The Deep Sleep power down process works as follows:
    · The ARM prepares for power down, typically after an external microcontroller notifies the ARM to
    prepare for power down via an interrupt or serial communication.
    · The ARM puts DRR in its self-refresh state. Program in DDR is preserved while DDR is in its
    self-refresh state. In the case of mDDR, you may utilize Partial Array Self Refresh (PASR) for
    additional power savings.
    · To reduce the chip stand by power, it is advised to power down all the analog blocks (PLL cores, DDR
    PHY DLL, DDR PHY, USB PHY, Video DAC, and CCP PHY).
    · The ARM sets SLEEPENABLE in register DEEPSLEEP in the System module.
    · The ARM informs the microcontroller that it has initiated Deep Sleep and begins polling
    SLEEPCOMPLETE in DEEPSLEEP. During the recovery process, the ARM will wake up and detect
    that SLEEPCOMPLETE has changed.
    · The microcontroller transitions GIO0 from high to low and then continues to hold GIO0 low (for a
    minimum of 500 ns) until it desires to exit Deep Sleep mode. The transition of GIO0 from high to low
    creates a clock pulse advancing the Deep Sleep state machine. After this transition, all clocks are
    stopped and then the internal oscillators are powered down.
    · At this point, the DM355 is in Deep Sleep mode; power is reduced to a minimum.
    The Deep Sleep wake up process works as follows:
    · To initiate the wake up process, the microcontroller transitions GIO0 from low to high. This transition
    creates a clock pulse advancing the Deep Sleep state machine. After this transition, the oscillators are
    powered up and allowed to stabilize and then all clocks are restarted.
    · The ARM detects that SLEEPCOMPLETE has changed
    · The ARM clears SLEEPENABLE in register DEEPSLEEP
    · The ARM brings DDR out of self refresh.
    · At this point the ARM resumes normal operation. The ARM may branch to program code preserved in
    DDR. Register states are preseved.

  • You would have to perform the steps described in the ARM subsystem guide in your hardware and software to utilize the deep sleep mode, as Juan mentioned this is not currently supported by the Linux software stack so it would require your custom implementation.

  • I want to bring dm365 to deep sleep ? May i use linux software to make it ?I look the state of dm365 ,it has STD STR and power of suspend,through these state can i take it to deepsleeep.

    last question :in platform of dm365,what is the smallest power consumption?

    thank!

  • King King,

    DM365 has deep sleep mode.  There is no support for deep sleep mode for DM365 in any current version of the TI PSP (drivers) that I am aware of, the open source community might support it. As mentioned in this other forum post

    The smallest power consumption is estimated by the power spreadsheet located here : http://www.ti.com/litv/pdf/sprab68.

    The details of putting the device in deepsleep mode is listed in the dm36x ARM Subsystem guide section 12.5.1.

    regards,

    miguel

     

     

  • i have the linux kernel contain /drivers/acpi/sleep.They have the code about sleep,STD ,STR.

     

  •  

    I am configuring the kernel,in the *kconfig there is the option:

         bool "Suspend to RAM and standby"
        depends on PM && ARCH_SUSPEND_POSSIBLE.

    what is this mean?

     

  • King,

    Is this Kernerl from TI? or from open source community?  I have no idea on what those comments mean, is there a way you can ask the Kernel developer?  If this is from TI then I can try to move this post to the software team forums.

    regards,

    miguel

     

  • Yes,it is from TI.   MontaVista Linux

    and i have some question about dm365:

    1:the ddr2 can be powered down?

    2:the linux on the platform dm365 can be  launched in 2 seconds.

    thank you !

  • King,

    asnwers embedded.

    1:the ddr2 can be powered down? 

    answer1: You can but it will loose all your data :), so for deep sleep mode we recommend self-refresh mode for the lowest power consumption, and in the steps for putting the dm355 into deep sleep we turn off the DDR PHY and DDR PLL etc.. already.

    2:the linux on the platform dm365 can be  launched in 2 seconds.

    answer2: I don't know about this question, I will move this post to the software forum so the right audience can comment better.

    regards,

    miguel

  • King King,

    I would recommend to please initiate a new forum post for your recent request (particularly on the DM365 Embedded Linux forum), since the issue has a different scope of questions with regard to kernel boot timing vs functionality of deepsleep.

    One observation that I wanted to point out from your log from the Hardware perspective was that it mentions the ARM/DDR speeds to be ARM Clock :- 495MHz & DDR Clock :- 330MHz, and this is a violation of the DM365 device specification of maximum of 300MHZ ARM, 270MHZ DDR. 

    regards,

    miguel

     

     

     

  • oh ,i am running it on dm6467!

     

  • hello,

    mr.king i need help from u ,
