nPM1300 one button example on custom board

[backstreet.devisor]

Hi.

I'm testing the "nPM1300 One Button" example, but I'm having some problems. 

When setting up the npm1300_ek.overlay file, I specify that pin P0.15 is the interrupt pin on my custom board (nRF52840) and GPIO3 is the interrupt initiator pin on the PMIC, but I keep getting a warning that pin 3 is already in use in the device tree.

npm1300_ek.overlay -->

custom_board_nrf52840.dts -->

When I start an application, the LED connected to pin P0.03 on my board lights up (although it shouldn't). The interrupt does not work and the board does not respond to button presses on the nPM1300 EK.

Can you please advise me why this is happening and how to fix it?

Also by default there are problems in the overlay file related to pin 2 on the EK. Is there any way to fix them or will they not affect correct operation?

Thanks.

Hi 

I presume your custom board is based on the 52840dk? 

You can do the following in your overlay

/{
    leds {
        status = "disabled";
    };
}
You can remove the 'leds' node altogether by using /delete-node/. The LED nodes are being referenced by the aliases, so those need to be removed as well.



/ {
    aliases {
        /delete-property/ led0;
        /delete-property/ mcuboot-led0;
        /delete-property/ bootloader-led0;
    };

    /delete-node/ leds;

};

Hi Runar. Thank you for your response.

My board is based on the nRF52840 (it's not a DK). If I understand you correctly, if I disable the leds node, I can no longer use LEDs in my application? I don't want to do that because the LEDs on my board play an important role. 

We need to find another solution to this problem.

Why does the pmic-int-pin = <3> property configure the pin to nRF52840 and not nPM1300?

[runsiv]

I agree, if that is the case I would not disable the leds. 

Could you post your overlay so I can have a look at it?

Thanks

When I look at the samples it looks like the npm1300 is defined in the overlay to the board. Not the npm1300. If you look at the zephyr dts in the build folder. Is the PMIC config included there? I will hopefully have an EK tomorrow and test myself

Interruptions still don't work. Here is a screenshot from the logic analyzer (GPIO3 and SHPHLD button behavior). It might be of some help to you.

Thanks.

[Andy Sinclair]

Hi, from your logic analyser trace the rising edge on GPIO3 shows that the interrupt from the PMIC is being generated as expected by the falling edge on SHIPHOLD (NPM1300_EVENT_SHIPHOLD_PRESS).

The interrupt will only be cleared once it is detected by the host and the event registers are cleared by I2C.

Do you see the event detected on the console?

If not, can you check the state of P0.15 when the interrupt is active?
You should be able to so this by reading the pin state with code or a shell command.

[backstreet.devisor]

Hi, Andy. Thanks for answering.

I will check the status of P0.15 and give an answer shortly.

Do you happen to know why the pmic-int-pin property affects not only the pmic pin, but also the nRF52 pin?  The zephyr website says this property only applies to pmic.

Thanks.
