Hello everyone. I was busy with the Linux kernel for most of the week. Let’s go over everything. Devicetree append properties support Currently, devictree supports creating and deleting properties but not appending to existing properties. This functionality is vital for complex uses like MikroBUS. I have been working on this for a while and posted […]

MacOS Thanks to help from Zain, BeagleBoard Rust Imager SD card flashing finally works on MacOS. With this, it is now possible to flash Linux images to an […]
Hello everyone. Another light week here. Let’s go over everything. BeaglePlay PWM Patch A while ago, I discovered that the MikroBUS PWM pin was not enabled in the upstream devicetree for BeaglePlay. So I created a patch to enable PWM and it was finally merged last week. BeagleConnect Freedom Debugging Continuing the work from last […]
Hello everyone. This week mostly involved a lot of chasing stuff around (sometimes in vain), so while there was not much headline work, this post might end up a bit longer than usual. Let’s get started without delay. BeagleConnect Freedom Adventures I started the week by trying to add IEEE802154 subg socket support in MicroPython […]
Hello everyone. This is the start of a new blog series to keep the community in the loop regarding the work done by BeagleBoard.org members and the community. Hopefully, I can stick to the schedule. MicroPython Initial BeagleConnect Freedom Support While we have had MicroPython firmware for BeagleConnect Freedom in the past, the work was out […]
Hello everyone. I have been recently working on porting MicroBlocks to BeagleConnect Freedom. This also involved work improving Arduino module for Zephyr since MicroBlocks uses Arduino APIs. I will now go over using MicroBlocks on Beagleconnect Freedom. What is MicroBlocks? MicroBlocks is a free, Scratch-like blocks programming language for learning physical computing with educational microcontroller […]
