Table 1.1 Chapter Summary Board See 3-Stack Platform “About the 3-Stack Platform System” on page 3 CPU “CPU Board” on page 6 Debug “Debug Board” on page 7 Personality “Personality Board” on page 10 About the 3-Stack Platform System Freescale introduces the 3-Stack Platform System, which you use to develop multimedia and connectivity applications using the i.M31 Applications Processor and the MC13783 Audio and Power Management device. The 3-Stack Platform System decreases the time between first development and final product release by providing you (as the system designer) with a near-to-final product design, which you can use as a development platform for software and hardware. There are two Board Support Packages (BSP) for the 3-Stack Platform System, with one BSP for WinCE and one BSP for Linux operating systems. These BSPs contain drivers optimized for multimedia operations using the i.MX31 and MC13783 devices. Freescale's 3-Stack Platform System consists of three small boards: CPU, Debug, and Personality. • A CPU board contains the i.MX31 CPU, memories and the MC13783 Power Management IC (PMIC). • A Debug board provides the debug interfaces (like JTAG), and also has a CPLD that implements an external Ethernet and serial controller for debug purposes. • The Personality board implements the functionality of the 3-Stack board system, and contains hardware for WiFi connectivity, FM receiver, and so on. The Personality board can be modified to meet your specific requirements without the need to modify the other two boards (CPU, Debug). The Personality board was designed to support common multimedia applications, and has a 2.8-inch VGA display, image sensor i.MX31 3-Stack Quick Start Guide for Linux 3StackQS_Linuxbeta.book Page 4 Wednesday, January 16, 2008 1:58 PM About the Boards About the 3-Stack Platform System camera, WiFi 802.11g/b, FM receiver, SD Card connector, USB OTG, USB Host, 2.4 QVGA smart display panel connector, ATA connector and TV-Out connector. As the 3-Stack Platform continues to evolve, more Personality boards will be created to meet new multimedia requirements. Table 1.2 describes the 3-Stack Platform features in detail.

To use the SD Card, follow these steps: 1. Insert the SD Card in the SD Card slot, which is located in the lower part of the personality board, just below the USB connectors. The system displays an SD card image in the left side of the display, and mounts the card in the /mnt/mmcblk0p1 folder. If the mmcblk0p1 folder is not there, then the card may not have the correct format. If so, then enter the following command: mx31#fsdisk /dev/mmcblk • For partition, use the n command. • For type (extended or primary), use p for primary. • Accept the default options provided by the prompt. • To save the changes, apply w. The SD card will now be mounted in /mnt. 2. Notice the multimedia file locations. By default, the multimedia files are stored in the / mnt/flc/directory. There are three folders: one for pictures, one for music and one for video. • mx31#cp /mnt//mnt/flc/Pictures • mx31#cp /mnt/ /mnt/flc/Music • mx31#cp /mnt/ /mnt/flc/Video 3. Copy the content on the SD card to those folders, storing the picture files to the Pictures folder, audio files to the Music folder, and video files to the Video folder. The files are now visible to the multimedia applications. i.MX31 3-Stack Development Kit Quick Start Guide 28 3StackQS_Linuxbeta.book Page 29 Wednesday, January 16, 2008 1:58 PM Using the Linux Demo Image Running the Applications Using a USB Mass Storage Application If the SD card is plugged and detected by the system, then you can run the USB Mass Storage application, which allows the system to be seen by a PC as an external hard disk driver that contains the content stored on the SD card. This allows you to transfer information from the PC to the system and from the system to the PC. The information transferred from the PC to the system is stored on the SD card. You can send multimedia files from the PC to the system, store them in the SD card, and then copy them to the /mnt/flc directories To use a USB mass storage application, follow these steps: 1. Make sure the SD card is plugged in and detected. 2. Connect a B-type to mini-AB cable from the USB mini-AB port (which is the OTG port in the Personality board), to a USB port in the PC. 3. Select the Mass Storage mode. 4. Click on the Launch button. The application is launched, and the PC will detect an external mass storage device. Typically, the drive is seen as Drive F. Now the system can load information to this drive as if it were a regular mass storage device. After the files are stored in the SD card, repeat the steps in the previous section, Using an SD Card, to make the files visible to the Multimedia applications. Running the Applications Now that the system contains the multimedia files, you can run the applications. First, see “Supported Codecs” for a description of the software packages supported by the system. Running the Video Application The Video application enables you to view video files. To use the Video application, follow these steps: 1. In the Multimedia Menu, select the VideoPlayer application. 2. Click on the arrow that is located in the top of the display in the right corner (near the cross button). A menu displays video options such as Open File, Playlist, and About. 3. Select Open File.
