| |
− | There is a LOT of great information in this:

− | ==Pinouts==
| |
− | Here's a list of pinouts for the various connectors and boards.
| |
− | | |
− | Here's a pic of the board, some of the pinouts can be seen on it. [http://pandorapress.net/files/2010/02/rev5.jpg]

− | ==Ext Connector==
| |
− | [[Image:Cable_connector pinout.png|thumb|TV cable connector]]
| |
− | ''What does it have?''
| |
− | * UART2
| |
− | * UART3
| |
− | * TV out
| |
− | * Stereo line out
| |
− | * Stereo line in
| |
− | * The UART lines can also be used as GPIO (six of them) and PWM lines (four of them).
| |
− | | |
− | | |
− | ''Where can we get the connectors from?''
| |
− | | |
− | * The connector appears to be a Tyco Electronics connector, part number 1717169-2
| |
− | * The manufacturer does *not* stock these for engineering samples, and very few vendors carry them
| |
− | * Community member [http://boards.openpandora.org/index.php?/user/157-wizardstan/ WizardStan] has ordered a bunch and is selling them at $2 a piece plus shipping from Canada, [http://boards.openpandora.org/index.php?/topic/2675-ext-connectors/ see here (thread)] or [http://pandorapress.net/2011/05/18/ext-connectors-have-arrived/ here (article)]

− | ===How Do I Make a TV-Out Cable?===
| |
− | * There are some useful tips in the [http://boards.openpandora.org/index.php?/topic/2675-ext-connectors/ EXT Connectors] thread.
| |
− | * A guide explaining one way of creating the video cables can be found [http://dl.openhandhelds.org/cgi-bin/pandora.cgi?0,0,0,0,23,465 here]
| |
− | * MarkoeZ Has written a blog post about it [http://markoez.pirategames.co.uk/index.php/blog/pandora-ext-tv-out-explained/ here]

− | ==Battery==
| |
− | [[Image:Battery.jpg|thumb]]
| |
− | * 3.7V
| |
− | * Lithium polymer single cell battery
| |
− | * 4000 mAH, 4 AH
| |
− | * battery cover here: [http://www.openpandora.org/images/Battery2.jpg]
| |
− | * reading out battery information: [[data provided by Battery and Power driver]]
| |

− | ==Internal connections==
| |
− | | |
− | ===LCD===
| |
− | * TD043MTEA1 [http://beyondinfinite.com/lcd/Library/Toppoly/TD043MTEA1.pdf datasheet]
| |
− | * LTPS (8-bit parallel input for R, G and B, with separate horizontal and vertical sync)
| |
− | * 3.0V
| |
− | | |
− | ===UART===
| |
− | * UART2 and 3 are available via the EXT connector, and via internal solder pads on the latest revision
| |
− | ** UART2 appears to support hardware flow control with RTS/CTS lines
| |
− | ** On the 2.6.27 Kernel UART3 is /dev/ttyS0
| |
− | ** On 2.6.37 or later, UART2 is accessible through /dev/ttyO1, UART3 is on /dev/ttyO2
| |
− | | |
− | ===GPIO===
| |
− | * 6 are available on the EXT connector
| |
− | * 7 are internal, 2 of which can be used as extra shoulder buttons
| |
− | * 1 located on the LCD cable
| |
− | | |
− | ===JTAG===
| |
− | * Yes, 1.8V 10-pin (board label JTAG)
| |
− | | |
− | ===I<sup>2</sup>C===
| |
− | * One at 1.8V from the OMAP (board label I2C3-1V8)
| |
− | * One at 2.8V (board label I2C3-2V8)
| |
− | | |
− | === USB ===
| |
− | * No internal USB ports
| |
− | | |
− | ===Keypad backlight===
| |
− | * ?
| |
− | | |
− | ===Extra LEDs===
| |
− | LED7 and LED8 can be added. You need to add FETs (Q17 and Q18) and resistors (R165, R166, R167 and R168)
| |
− | See the official "Pandora Hacker Guide" from Michael Weston for more details and component values.

− | ==Breakout Board==
| |
− | [[Image:Breakoutboard.jpg|thumb|alt=Developer's breakout board|Developer's breakout board]]
| |
− | This is the breakout board used by Pandora team members during development. Only a small number were made, and they are not available to the public. However a similar product (or gerber files) may be released in the future. A schematic for this board is available here: http://openpandora.ca/schematic/AV_Board_schematic.pdf
