HDMI is not connected

Former Member
Former Member over 9 years ago

Hi everyone! 

 

I have a PicoZed Development Kit and when I connect the HDMI cable the DS1 is not switch on. Other LEDs are switch good.

 

The leds that are on are:

DS8 (power) - red;

DS7 - blue;

D3 (SOM) - green;

D4 (SOM) is switch off, so Zynq PL is configured.

 

I'm connecting a monitor (VGA) through HDMI-VGA adapter. 

 

What could be the problem?

    Initially, you were able to power up and power the SOM:

    DS8 (power) - red;
    DS7 - blue;
    D3 (SOM) - green;
    D4 (SOM) is switch off, so Zynq PL is configured.

     

    But now, you don't even see D3 (SOM) light up, indicating that it's not powering up successfully.

     

    Is that correct?

     

    P8 position should not matter. Are you saying that when Vadj is set for 3.3V the system powers up? (D3 SOM illuminates?)

     

    Thanks for clarifying. I want to make sure we debug first things first.

    "P8 position should not matter. Are you saying that when Vadj is set for 3.3V the system powers up? (D3 SOM illuminates?)"

     

    In first time the board didn't work. Then I change P8 to 3.3V and all LEDs lighted up correctly (except HDMI). Then the board didn't work again. After that when I checked the board with ohmmeter something was "wrong" and all necessary LEDs lighted up correctly again. Now ohmmeter don't help me any more =)

    I checked if the power comes to the SOM. This is true. When I checked the capacitor C205 on the SOM then something is again short-circuited and all LEDs are lit correctly (except HDMI). Progress did not last long - if you turn off the board then it will not be work again.
    If the power goes to the SOM then something else is the problem. Perhaps this is HDMI (it's only HDMI's LED is not lit).

    That's what I read on my terminal when I short-circuited the SOM and all LEDs lighted up correctly (except HDMI):

     

    "ALSA device list:

    #0: HDMI monitor

    #1: ZED ADAU1761"

     

    When linux booted I didn't see any errors. But HDMI monitor is not working.

    Something else when booting linux:

     

    " * Setting up X directories...  [OK]

       * STARTDISTCC is set to false in /etc/default/distcc

       * /usr/bin/distcc not starting

       * Starting IIO Daemon iiod   [OK]"

     

    As I know this problem may be in "STARTDISTCC" then not started. 

    The rest of the Linux boot normally but only through the terminal to the PC. Monitor in not working. VGA-HDMI adapter may be the problem.
