SoC Linux Dojo [Part 8] How to create remote PWM control, motor control, and startup scripts with network applications

 

 

Recent embedded products are increasingly equipped with Linux® due to the sophistication of their functions.

 

In this "SoC Linux Dojo", we will target Macnica 's Helio board equipped with Altera Cyclone V SoC, and first we will write a pre-built SD card binary image to the SD card and confirm that Linux starts.

After that, prepare a compilation environment (Linux machine + cross-compiler), obtain and compile the Linux kernel source code, create a custom driver, add a user circuit to the SoC FPGA, check the operation of PWM control, etc. We will explain the basic development method in all 8 times.
