Talk:Teensy++ 2.0

Permanent install notes

• When reading the nor not a problem, because nor pins are output pins driven by the nor. When writing to the nor, pins are input pins driven by southbridge.. not enough current to drive the led
  • The solution is to remove the led, alternativelly to cut his trace, or temporally disconnect D6 wire

NANDway

• Solder 3.3V regulator on Teensy (and cut 5V pad)
• Flash the HEX to the Teensy
• Solder all control + I/O wires + Ground
• Crash it (it will beep and blink red led), press power button to have a solid red led
• Make sure to use the right nand id for nandway.py
• Dump it

Onboard Regulator alternatives

On PJRC they recommend/sell the MCP1825, a SOT223 package lowdrop regulator of 500mA with fixated 3.3V output. If for some reason you want another fixated SOT223, but with a bit more current (ofcourse maximum power is limited by the bus used for feeding, e.g. one USB 2.0 port is normally limited to 2.5W), you might consider these:

• 3.3V / 1000mA
  • MCP1826S-3302E/DB or MCP1826T-3302E/DC
  • MIC37100-3.3WS

External Powering Notes

<judges> nand powered with 3.3v by atx doesnt work
<judges> nand powered by teensy requires huge delays to work kind of reliable
<judges> teensy powered by usb, nand powered by external psu with 2v works like a charm..
<judges> thats why nandway worked for me.. it's slow. my own version is almost twice as fast and only worked on my first nand. second one always gave errors..
<judges> powered by teensy seems to be right on the edge of whats still working
<judges> but only with 10ms delays between page reads..
<judges> current power draw is 1.13amps at 2v
<judges> nand control lines are pulled high by starship and teensy isnt able to pull them low
<judges> 2v-2.5v works fine
<judges> stops working at 2.8v

<judges> it seems to be kind of variable.. <@eussNL> 1.5Amps at 2.5V is more than enough, right judges ?
<judges> using my version of nandway you'll need [email protected]
<judges> using the original one you'll need [email protected]
<judges> my version drives i/o lines differently
<judges> also original doesnt even work at 2.5V
<judges> 1.7V still works fine for both versions and only takes max 1.2A
<judges> as i said, original version doesnt work at 2.5v
<judges> 2.2v max

1.65V / 1.8V / 2.5V - 1.5A regulators

NORway Mac OS-X patch

if you are on Mac OS-X and having problems with timeouts:

<MikeM64> hahaha, it's a dirty fix, but it seems to work XD
<MikeM64> lemme compile diffs, I got perfect writes happening on my mac now
<MikeM64> 10 writes and 2 timeouts; not bad. better than 20 timeouts / write
