|
|
|
|
### Generic OHCI USB 1.1 Controller
|
|

|
|
|
|
- Full Speed (12 Mbps)
|
|
|
|
- Low Speed (1.5 Mbps)
|
|
|
|
### Generic EHCI USB 2.0 Controller
|
|
There are two controller of this type. This controller is Host only controller that is compatible with USB 2.0. The controller shared port with
|
|
[Generic OHCI USB 1.1 Controller](#generic-ohci-usb-11-controller) therefore any USB 1.1 device connected to the port, will be automatically
|
|
routed to [Generic OHCI USB 1.1 Controller](#generic-ohci-usb-11-controller).
|
|
Supported speed:
|
|
|
|
- High Speed (480 Mbps)
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Synopsys DesignWare USB 3.0 Dual-Role Device Controller

There are two controller of this type. This controller support On-The-Go /Dual Role which mean it can be configured as Host and also Device.
|
|
Supported speed:
|
|
|
|
- Super Speed (5 Gbps)
|
|
|
|
- High Speed (480 Mbps)
|
|
|
|
- Full Speed (12 Mbps)
|
|
|
|
- Low Speed (1.5 Mbps)
|
|
|
|
The controller is connected to Rockchip Type-C PHY.
|
|
|
|
## USB on Helios64
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
One of EHCI Controller (and OHCI Controller) is connected to M.2 socket.
|
|
|
|
The first USB 3.0 Dual-Role Device Controller is connected to USB Type-C connector and configured as OTG with help of [FUSB302](https://www.onsemi.com/products/interfaces/usb-type-c/fusb302).
|
|
|
|
The second USB 3.0 Dual-Role Device Controller is connected to USB Hub 3.1 Gen 1 and configured as Host only.
|
|
|
|
### Power Budget
|
|
|
|
Each of external USB port is protected by Power Distribution switch with following current limit.
|
|
|
|
| Port | Voltage | Maximum Current | Remarks |
|
|
|------------|-------|------------------|---------|
|
|
| USB 3.0 Upper Back Panel | 5V | 900 mA | |
|
|
| USB 3.0 Lower Back Panel | 5V | 900 mA | |
|
|
| USB 3.0 Front Panel | 5V | 900 mA | |
|
|
| Type-C | 5V | 1200 mA | PDO source only |
|
|
|
|
|
|
## USB Type-C Functionality on Helios64
|
|
|
|
To simplify the cabling, Helios64 is designed to maximize USB Type-C usage.
|
|
|
|
Helios64 employ High Speed multiplexer on USB 2.0 signal, by default the USB 2.0 signal is routed to USB Serial console.
|
|
The multiplexer can be override using [Jumper](/helios64/hardware/#jumpers)
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
When Helios64 connected to PC using USB cable, there will be 2 device connected. FTDI FT232 USB Serial on USB 2.0 and Helios64 or
|
|
Unknown Device (if USB gadget is not configured yet, see below) on USB 3.0.
|
|
|
|
On Windows PC using [USB Device Tree Viewer](https://www.uwe-sieber.de/usbtreeview_e.html) to visualize the USB tree,
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
In this case, Helios64 is connected to a USB 3.1 Gen 1 Hub port 1.
|
|
|
|
USB Serial Converter (FTDI FT232 USB Serial) connected under port 1 of the USB 2.0 side of the Hub and
|
|
RK3399 USB 3.0 (configured as USB Mass Storage Device) connected under port 1 of the USB 3.0 side of the Hub.
|
|
|
|
On Linux PC using [USBview](http://www.kroah.com/linux-usb/) to visualize the USB tree,
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
In this case, Helios64 is connected to a USB 3.1 Gen 1 Hub port 1.
|
|
|
|
FTDI FT232 USB Serial connected under port 1 of the USB 2.0 side of the Hub and
|
|
RK3399 USB 3.0 (configured as USB Mass Storage Device) connected under port 1 of the USB 3.0 side of the Hub.
|
|
|
|
|
|
!!! info
|
|
Every USB hub connected to USB 3.0 port or higher will create a sibling device, USB Hub 2.0, from host point of view.
|
|
|
|
USB 2.0 device connected port 1 of the USB 3.0 Hub, it will appear on USB 2.0 Hub port 1.
|
|
If USB 3.0 Device connected to same physical port it will appear on USB 3.0 Hub port 1.
|
|
|
|
### Serial Console
|
|
|
|
Serial Console of Helios64 is connected to FT232 USB Serial converter and the USB 2.0 signal of the FT232 is connected to USB 2.0 signals of USB Type-C Port.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### DisplayPort Alternate Mode
|
|
|
|
Using USB Type-C to DisplayPort cable or USB Type-C to HDMI dongle, Helios64 can be connected to monitor to display Linux Desktop or other GUI application.

|
|
|
|
|
|
!!! note
|
|
- DisplayPort Alternate Mode is NOT supported on U-Boot.
|
|
|
|
- USB Type-C to HDMI cable might not work if it employ HDMI Alternate Mode
|
|
|
|
|
|
### USB Host
|
|
|
|
Using OTG cable such as,
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Helios64 can act as USB host and can be connected to various USB device.
|
|
|
|
### USB Device
|
|
|
|
Helios64 can be used as Direct Attached Storage (DAS) with proper configuration and kernel module. Refer to [Helios64 as Direct Attached Storage (DAS) device](#helios64-as-direct-attached-storage-das-device)
|
|
|
|
Helios64 can also used as "USB eMMC reader/writer" for OS recovery purpose. Refer to [USB OTG Port (USB Type-C)](#usb-otg-port-usb-type-c)
|
|
|
|
|
|
## USB under U-Boot
|
|
|
|
### USB Host Port
|
|
|
|
USB Host support in U-Boot is quite minimal, it only support USB storage and USB ethernet.
|
|
|
|
### USB OTG Port (USB Type-C)
|
|
|
|
USB Type C port is configured as USB device mode as USB Mass Storage connected to eMMC.
|
|
This function can be activated by pressing Recovery Button.
|
|
This is to serve as a way to (re)install OS to eMMC.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## USB under Linux
|
|
|
|
### Helios64 as Direct Attached Storage (DAS) device
|
|
|
|
Helios64 can be used as Direct Attached Storage (DAS) device with help of Linux USB Gadget kernel module.
|
|
|
|
The kernel moodule only export the underlying block device NOT the filesystem layer. Therefore if the block device is formatted with filesystem unique to Linux,
|
|
the exported disk may not readable by computer that has Helios64 connected to.
|
|
|
|
For example, the block device is formatted with EXT4 filesystem and Helios64 connected to Windows PC as DAS,
|
|
the Windows PC will not be able to read the disk content unless 3rd party software/driver installed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
!!! warning
|
|
Do NOT access Helios64 simultanouesly as DAS and NAS, as the filesystem is not managed by system and can lead to data corruption.
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### Individual Disk Exported as Separate Disk
|
|
|
|
To export all SATA disks that has been identified as /dev/sda ... /dev/sde, run the following command on Helios64.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
sudo modprobe g_mass_storage file=/dev/sda,/dev/sdb,/dev/sdc,/dev/sdd,/dev/sde iSerialNumber=1234567890 iManufacturer="Kobol Innovations" iProduct=Helios64
|
|
```
|
|
|

#### RAID device exported as One Disk
|
|
|
|
Assuming the RAID already created and identified as /dev/md/md-raid6, run the following command on Helios64 to export the RAID block device as USB Mass Storage
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
sudo modprobe g_mass_storage file=/dev/md/md-raid6 iManufacturer="Kobol Innovations" iProduct="Helios64" iSerialNumber="1234567890"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The following screenshot, Helios64 connected with 5x 120GB SATA drive and configured as RAID 6 so total space of the block device is ~360GB (3x 120GB). The block device then formatted with NTFS.
