Banana Pi + Enc28j60 (SPI Interface)

tony_zhang

It is in the first partition of the SD card. If you use Raspbian OS, it is in the directory of bananapi of the first partition.

thanks! I found out just now how this works when i was playing around with the allmighty sunxtoolkit
I will give you a feedback shortly.

worked! thanks a lot! now I know how to handle the sunx -

I get the following dmesg output:

Copy the Code

setting eth1 up with ifconfig and setting appropriate routes did work as well but there is no connection.
pinging the router results in lost packages. Any suggestions?

setting the frequency higher than 12MHz resulted in failing to load the eth module. Did anybody ever manage to get the native spibus working with 100Mhz?

N3m have you set the interrupt edge to "falling" ?

No I did not do that since basic operations should work anyways.

My current setup with 2 enc:
Both adapters get successfully registered:
IRQ wiring : adapter0->GPIO24(pin 18) and adapter1->GPIO25(pin 22)

the problem remains the same for both adapters

sashijoseph

n3m,since you have enabled interrupts,I think it would be better to configure the edge as well.

Even a basic TX operation would use the INT pin to signal the host(BPi) that a TX operation has taken place and then the host would clear the interrupt flag and proceed with whatever needs to be done.If the host does not detect an interrupt I don't think it will automatically fall back to polling the particular interrupt flag.

If interrupts were not enabled in the first place then the ENC would probably work with polling.

So please set the interrupt edge in /sys and see if it makes a difference.

sashijoseph

IRQ wiring : adapter0->GPIO24(pin 18) and adapter1->GPIO25(pin 22)

gpio_pin_1 = port:PH02<5><default><default><default>
gpio_pin_2 = port:PI17<5><default><default><default>

Seems this is not correct.
Pin 18 would be PH21 and the correct line would be
port:PH21<6><default><default><default>

Pin 22 would be PI16
port:PI16<5><default><default><default>

I agree. I changed the lines as you suggested, but I cannot set the gpio in /sys/class/gpio/export like I did with the rpi.
Even root may not export anything. "Write error: Invalid argument"
write privileges are given for dir and export itself.

sashijoseph

The number to export would be 245 for PH21  and  272 for PI16.
Try and see....

tony_zhang

in the script.bin I provide in the images， the gpio_para is set to be same with rapspberry Pi. You can just echo 25 > export and echo 24 > export to enable them. And set interrupts

tony_zhang

Be sure you run as root
