Duplex variant of MMDVM_HS_Hat DB9MAT DF2ET DO7EN
This PCB uses the MMDVM_HS by Andy CA6JAU. It has two ADF7021 onboard and allows for duplex operation with two time slots on DMR.
Initial release.
LEDs D4 and D5 interchanged to align with scan order. Solder jumper JP1 was added. It can be closed if the board is used on Raspberry Pi only. It ties BOOT1 to GND. BOOT0 is controlled via GPIO. The 2x3 pin header can be unpopulated in this case to save space. We placed two coils on U1 and U2 for experiments with extended VCO. These are L11 and L12 and they are optional and do not need to be inserted for UHF use. Testpoints TP1 and TP2 on backside allows the demodulator output SNR to be measured with #define TEST_DAC compiled firmware.
This version is not recommended for (re-)production!
An accidentially deleted 3v3 wire has been added back to the PCB layout. BOM, Mouser cart and stencil stay the same as for rev1.1.
STlink header has been refactored to have the same pinout as the MMDVM_HS_Hat boards. OLED and STlink header have been exchanged. JP1 has been slightly moved. C44, C45 and C46 have been relocated nearer to the STM32F1 CPU. A table was added to the bottom silkscreen to show which TCXO is installed. This is important to the firmware. BOM and Mouser cart are still the same. The stencil has slightly changed. If you manually solder C44-C46 you can still use the old one.
Mouser cart for rev1.0 is here.
This is the Mouser cart for rev1.1. L11 and L12 are optional.
The device can be used on top on a RPi attached via the GPIO port or standalone and connected via USB. Both variants require different handling of compiling and uploading the firmware. The USB connection requires firmware with bootloader support whereas the GPIO version does not.
For USB connection a bootloader has to be installed initally. This requires STlink connection. After that is done the MMDVM_HS firmware upgrade can be done via the USB connection. The STlink connection can be used as fallback if wrongly configured firmware was installed for example.
If you want to use the device via USB port you have to install a bootloader and build the firmware with bootloader support. As the raw device cannot be used with USB you have to use a USB-serial adapter or STlink device. Using STlink this can be done as follows:
user@host:/opt/MMDVM_HS$ make stlink-bl

The device should now be usable as /dev/ttyACMx.
If you want to update the MMDVM_HS firmware itself later on via USB you can use the dfu upload method. The settings in Config.h are:
#define MMDVM_HS_DUAL_HAT_REV10
#define ENABLE_ADF7021
#define DUPLEX
#define ADF7021_14_7456
or #define ADF7021_12_2880
for boards with 12.288MHz TCXO.
#define STM32_USB_HOST
#define ENABLE_SCAN_MODE
Optionally:
#define SEND_RSSI_DATA
#define SERIAL_REPEATER
Compile the firmware with "make bl" and then:
user@host:/opt/MMDVM_HS$ sudo make dfu devser=/dev/ttyACM3
././STM32F10X_Lib/utils/linux64/upload-reset /dev/ttyACM3 750
././STM32F10X_Lib/utils/linux64/dfu-util -D bin/mmdvm_f1bl.bin -d 1eaf:0003 -a 2 -R -R

Resetting USB to switch back to runtime mode
For specific details about the firmware installation, check these instructions. The process is similar to the installation on the ZumSpot Pi. You can make use of the preconfigured scripts in MMDVM_HS. Editing Config.h by hand requires these settings:
Enable the following settings in Config.h:
#define MMDVM_HS_DUAL_HAT_REV10
#define ENABLE_ADF7021
#define DUPLEX
#define ADF7021_14_7456
#define STM32_USART1_HOST
#define ENABLE_SCAN_MODE
Optionally:
#define SEND_RSSI_DATA
#define SERIAL_REPEATER
And for 12.288MHz TCXO equipped boards
#define ADF7021_12_2880
instead of the 14_7456 option.
Build the firmware:
make
Make sure the two BOOT jumpers are set as follows:
BOOT0: completey removed
BOOT1: set to BOOT 1 -
And finally upload the firmware to the MMDVM_HS_Dual_Hat:
sudo make mmdvm_hs_dual_hat
PiStar contains a binary that allow for flashing precompiled binary firmware to the MMDVM_HS_Dual_Hat. To update the firmware within PiStar execute the following commands:
$ rpi-rw
$ pistar-mmdvmhshatflash hs_dual_hat
If you have a board equipped with 12.288MHz TCXO you have to flash the according firmware type using:
$ pistar-mmdvmhshatflash hs_dual_hat-12mhz
