1 Introduction

  • The NEO-Hub is a plug & play extension board.The NEO-Hub communicate with the NanoPi NEO/AIR via its I2C interface. It acts as an interface between the NanoPi NEO/AIR and various external modules. The NEO-Hub has 3 I2C interfaces,3 analog interfaces,2 UART interfaces and 4 digital interfaces (among which D3 and D5 support PWM).All the BakeBit modules can be connected to the NEO-Hub with a 4-pin cable.
  • The NEO-Hub can be mounted on the NanoPi NEO/AIR with male connectors.The NEO-Hub communicates with various external modules via its I2C, serial and A/D interfaces.
  • The NEO-Hub has 3 I2C interfaces,3 analog interfaces,2 UART interfaces and 4 digital interfaces (among which D3 and D5 support PWM).

BakeBit - NEO Hub Interface
  • Each BakeBit interface is a 2.0mm pitch 4pin connector. Here is its specification:
  • I2C Interface

There three 5V I2C interfaces on the top row. The first pin on the left is SCL and the second pin is SDA.

Pin Name Description
1 SCL SCL
2 SDA SDA
3 5V 5V supply voltage
4 GND Ground
  • Analog Interface

There are three analog interfaces on the second row. The first pin on the left is An and the second pin is An+1. For example A0/A1 stands for the first pin A0 and the second pin A1 on the left. Usually it is abbreviated as A0.

Pin Name Description
1 An Analog An
2 An+1 Analog An+1
3 5V 5V supply voltage
4 GND Ground
  • UART Interface

The NEO-Hub has two UART interfaces. When you connect the NEO-Hub to the NanoPi NEO/AIR the first UART on the third row is directly connected to the NEO/AIR's UART1. The second UART is the UART populated from NEO-Hub's chipset and this UART can be used as D0/D1.

Pin Name Description
1 Rx Receiver
2 Tx Transmitter
3 5V 5V supply voltage
4 GND Ground
  • 数字接口引脚定义

其余的接口为4个数字引脚接口,左侧第1个引脚为Dn,第2个引脚为Dn+1。例如丝印为D2/D3的端子,表示左侧第1个引脚为D2,第2个引脚为D3,习惯上为我们把这个接口简称为数字端子D2。

5个数字引脚D2-D6中,引脚D3、D5、D6引脚可以作为PWM引脚使用。

引脚 名称 描述
1 Dn 数字引脚Dn
2 Dn+1 数字引脚Dn+1
3 5V 电源5V
4 GND

3 使用方法

BakeBit - NEO Hub连接NanoPi NEO的使用方法参考以下链接:BakeBit - NEO Hub连接NanoPi NEO的使用方法

4 支持的模块

可以和BakeBit - NEO Hub连接使用的模块如下:

5 升级NEO Hub固件

升级BakeBit固件的实质是,将新版本的固件文件(名为bakebit_firmware.hex)烧写到NEO-Hub的芯片内,下面的内容是具体的步骤:
先在NanoPi NEO上安装 avrdude:

apt-get install avrdude

再用vi编辑配置文件 /etc/avrdude.conf,在文件最末尾加入如下内容:

# Linux GPIO configuration for avrdude. 
# Change the lines below to the GPIO pins connected to the AVR. 
programmer 
  id    = "nanopineo"; 
  desc  = "Use the Linux sysfs interface to bitbang GPIO lines"; 
  type  = "linuxgpio"; 
  reset = 67; 
  sck   = 66; 
  mosi  = 64; 
  miso  = 65; 
;

然后进入Firmware目录,执行firmware_update.sh脚本上传固件:

cd ~/BakeBit/Firmware 
./firmware_update.sh

根据脚本的提示选择y, 固件更新成功的提示如下所示:

正如你所见,固件是一个名为.hex的二进制文件,你可以使用脚本 new_fw_search.sh 在线检查一下官方是否有新版本。

6 使用Arduino IDE编译固件

1) 先在电脑上安装Arduino IDE,Arduino IDE到这里下载:
https://www.arduino.cc/en/Main/Software

2) 把BakeBit/Firmware/Source/下的FastLED-FastLED3.1目录复制到Arduino IDE安装目录下的libraries子目录,在macOS下该路径为: /Applications/Arduino.app/Contents/Java/libraries/

3) 用Arduino IDE打开BakeBit项目文件:
BakeBit/Firmware/Source/bakebit_v1.0.0/bakebit_v1.0.0.ino

4) 在Arduino上进入Tools菜单,把Board的类型改为Arduino Nano:
BakeBit-ArduinoBoardType.jpg
5) 在Arduino上进入Sketch菜单,选择 Export Compliled Binary,Arduino将执行编译。

6) 编译成功后,在源代码目录下, 会生成一个名为bakebit_v1.0.0.ino.eightanaloginputs.hex的二进制文件,将其更名为 bakebit_firmware.hex,上传到NanoPi NEO上并覆盖BakeBit/Firmware/下的同名文件,用上一章节介绍的方法,执行firmware_update.sh脚本重新烧写固件即可。
