Certain board revisions are known to have specific hardware issues.
- Daughterboard external precision R resistor R6, which is not populated by default, must not be populated to avoid spurious illegal ISR entries. This is applicable to all revisions in which R6 (connected to GPIO19) is present, as well as to any and all designs which utilize the external R functionality.
- Board revision E1 has the following issues. Later board revisions, such as revision A, do not have these issues.
- Known Hardware Issues
- Resistor R108 is known to have a value of 2.4kΩ. This is incorrect, and should be 1kΩ. This causes the OCP limit of the external OCP circuit to increase from the designed value (~9.42A) to approx. 21A.
- In this revision, J14 (motor temp external sensor connector) is present, and J14 (Isolated UART connector) is not. To utilize the UART signals on J17, an external isolator must be used.
- Known Software Issues
To utilize revision E1, the pre-defined symbol TIEVM_MTR_HVINV_REV_E1 must be added. Without this pre-defined symbol, current sensing of the U and W legs are swapped, and the motor cannot run.
