BeagleBone/PrussDemoSubmission
Contents
Design
Using the PRUSS functionality of AM335x core for driving an vacuum fluorescent display using a shift register in realtime.
This proposal will have the following:
- Having PRU control everything once loaded
* Multiple PRU cores utilized. * Example will have be one driving the display and another incrementing the clock (in seconds).
- Userspace can also talk to the PRUSS to update data in almost real time.
- Explaining why SPI transfers, GPIO bit banging doesn't work with applications like these.
Software
All PRU source is available on GitHub[1]
Currently the userspace utility code exists but final demo will have the clock being ran completely from PRUSS and not touching outside of it at all.
