AM18x PRU sample code for WinCE

Hi,

My customer has a urgent case need to use 7 UART ports in AM18x with WinCE, the idea is to use 3 HW uart ports of AM18x and 4 SW uart ports that were implemented by PRU.

I am trying to develop a driver to configure AM18x PRU to emulate soft-ware UART, but I have no idea how it started.

Does there any sample code for AM18x PRU usage in WinCE? Or someone has experience of PRU can consult it with me?

Thank you very much.

  • Indy,

    I am not aware of a PRU driver for WinCE. However you may go to the processor wiki and get the sources for the Linux driver for a start.

    The PRU code itself for additional UART should be independent. Finally you will need to adapt any PRU-UART driver.  I assume there is a Linux version coming with the PRU UART examples we provide. See also the recent announcement for the new adapter boards here on the forum.

    Regards.

  • Indy, did you make any progress with the PRU on WinCE? I'm interested in this also, and am curious about what you've accomplished before I dive too deep into this.

    Thanks,
    David
