Did you check the latest RPi CM5 Module devheads-feedRaspberry Pi Compute Module 5 — the new standard for embedded computing, on sale now from $45.. Would like to know how you all see the difference when compare to other Linux running devices. Is it just a regular upgrade or something special?

melta101OP•11/29/24, 5:50 AM

i did see the reviews/specs
it's a good upgrade from prior version but nothing fancy.
higher BW, higher version of USB, PCle
i thought of buying one but then i realized that i have a lot of unused SBC

,

i had noticed few people stating that it overheats a lot and would require an active cooler

and the most amazing thing is i got to know to, is about pi gen micro(https://github.com/raspberrypi/pi-gen-micro) during the release.

segfaultdev.elf•11/29/24, 7:42 AM

it has multiple core with different different architecture

segfaultdev.elf•11/29/24, 7:42 AM

I wonder how it communicates between them

99% are normally done using mailbox

melta101OP•11/29/24, 7:47 AM

every company adds thier own flavour to it

Mmelta101 99% are normally done using mailbox

segfaultdev.elf•11/29/24, 7:47 AM

so mailbox and semaphore works fine

segfaultdev.elf•11/29/24, 7:47 AM

:excusemewhat:

melta101OP•11/29/24, 7:47 AM

that is why OpenAMP is coming to clutch to bring them all together

have to order one nowwwwww

melta101OP•11/29/24, 7:47 AM

mailbox is a protocol

Mmelta101 mailbox is a protocol

segfaultdev.elf•11/29/24, 7:47 AM

I know that

segfaultdev.elf•11/29/24, 7:48 AM

like one core puts some messages in a memory location in id:value pair

segfaultdev.elf•11/29/24, 7:48 AM

and other one reads that with the id

segfaultdev.elf•11/29/24, 7:48 AM

It was something like that as far as I can remember from my OS course

Ssegfaultdev.elf and other one reads that with the id

melta101OP•11/29/24, 7:49 AM

yep,
That's the gist

Mmelta101 yep, That's the gist

segfaultdev.elf•11/29/24, 7:50 AM

I thought about buying milk v duo

segfaultdev.elf•11/29/24, 7:50 AM

but only reason for not buying is I thought both of it cores are risc-v

I am working on this remote instrument , this instrument is to be desinged to be set up in remote location (stand alone) . So its battery powered , i am planning to use 4g gsm module to upload the data on the cloud , but i am facing power consumption issue . As the device is designed to send data every 1hr , it will be on sleep mode majority of the time , but when i need to send data , gsm has to booted up . But during the boot time the gsm is pulling a lot of current ( came to know its a common issue with gsm ) . Is there any alternative iot solution that i can use ?

As we don't know how many sensors and interfaces you need for this application, I'd like to know if ur planning to use a 4g gsm module with an MCU or just a module. You'll find some modules with support for low-power modes + basic peripherals support with interrupts (wake-up) on the radio module itself

Umesh Lokhande•11/30/24, 4:21 PM

What I understood is that signal conditioning is taken care by the existing sensor circuit which is powered over 1.5 VDC batteries. The best way is to run GSM module with its dedicated batteries. And, as per the power reality of 4G module goes. You can try get best out of handling interface (basic to read data) and sending to cloud. Browse quectel's portfolio. If you are in Pune, give a call to Millennium Semiconductor and speak to their FAE to find out which gsm module will serve your needs.

Hello @here, @ZacckOsiemo @Umesh Lokhande @undefined.elf I have been working on the design and implementation of an energy meter. So far, I have been able to read my AC voltage and current successfully using differential amplifiers, calculate the power, and also get my energy in kWh. I am currently working on connecting the device to a server using GPRS, specifically, I am using the sim800C gsm module to do this. I have written the drivers for the UART and tested the sending and receiving functions, i made some pushes to github, here is the link, you can please check it out and let me know your thoughts
