Differences between Element 14 Sabrelite and Boundary Devices SabreLite

badger16437

Hello,

 

I've been working with the SABRE Lite BSP offered now with WEC2013.

 

We have 4 of the Element 14 SABRE Lite boards and have successfully booted WinCE 2013, however we have struggled to get HDMI working and some of the board peripherals.

 

Development platform for i.MX 6Quad - Built to Freescale SABRE Lite design

 

 

I recently contacted Boundary Devices about the problems we were having:

 

"Hi Steve,

The element14 board is not the same SABRE Lite.  We did the original design for Freescale, but the files were public at the time so element14 took the files and manufactured their own version. 

 

We have made notable improvements on the SABRE Lite design so I cannot comment on how our software will work with the element14 board.

 

 

 

 

Boundary Devices Inc"

 

And then went on to say:

 

"HI Steve,

Per my previous email, you should buy one of our boards so you can run our software on it. 

 

The Adeneo BSP is the one we are using and it is designed for the latest SABRE Lite boards.

 

 

 

Boundary Devices Inc"

 

http://boundarydevices.com/product/sabre-lite-imx6-sbc/

 

Could someone clarify if this is the case ? As from what we can gather the element14 board isn't compatible with the iMX6Q SABRE Lite supplied with WEC2013 bsp.

 

I've also noticed the two boards mentioned on Timesys who produce the shipped Linux demo image with the element14 board:

 

LinuxLink Development Center for Freescale i.MX 6 Series Processor | Timesys Embedded Linux

 

The software version numbers listed appear identical.

 

 

 

Kind Regards

 

Steve Jones

    element14 board isn't compatible with the iMX6Q SABRE Lite supplied with WEC2013

    The wince is configures for a particular board,  requires reconfiguration if board differs.

    you can give a try to opensource BSPs, android & linux.

    Hi,

     

    I have built and booted a WEC2013 image for the Element14 board using the reference BSP supplied by Microsoft (Adeneo) and HDMI.

     

    If you select HDMI in the default catalog in platform builder you will notice that the LVDS panel is still included.This is because the LVDS panel is hard coded as enabled in C:\WINCE800\platform\iMX6Q_SABRE_Lite\imx6q_sabre_lite.bat.


    Remove SET BSP_DISPLAY_10_1_HANNSTAR=1 in the above file to get it working.

     

    I have explained a bit more here: https://community.freescale.com/thread/335835

     

    Hope this helps - let me know if it does!

     

    Mark

    Hi Steve,

    I have started a new discussion about the memory bandwidth of these 2 boards:

    http://www.element14.com/community/thread/42682/l/embest-sabre-lite-memory-bandwidth-vs-boundary-devices-sabre-lite

    Embest board seems rather limited.
