Description
OSM Module
The iesy RPX30 OSM-SF with its 30 mm x 30
mm size is a compact all-rounder. Equipped
with the Rockchip PX30 processor, it covers
many standard functions. In terms of cost, this
module is also very interesting. Like all Open
Standard Modules™, the iesy RPX30 OSM-SF
also has the option of responding flexibly to
requirements.
Baseboard
The basis of our Eval-Kit iesy RPX30 EVA-Mi
is our baseboard. Designed in Mini-ITX format
(170 mm x 170 mm), it is compact and the per-
fect platform for all kinds of tests and demon-
strations. The clou, all iesy OSM™ modules can
be used on this carrier. The usable range of
functions is then specified by the OSM™ mod-
ule used.

3. GENERAL INFORMATION
The Solder-on modules of the Open Standard Modules™ series represent a sensible alternative.
Especially with regard to flexibility and scalability, these can usually score thanks to their modular
approach. Not to be neglected is the possibility of fully automatic assembly (SMT). This also has a
positive effect on quality, as manual assembly steps are no longer necessary.
On the SGET website you can find and download the currently valid OSM specification. Soon you
will find more information and documents there, such as the Carrier Design Guide.

7. COMPONENTS EVAL-KIT
The iesy RPX30 EVA-Mi includes:
▶OSM module iesy RPX30 OSM-SF soldered on baseboard
▶microSD card with iesy demo image
▶Click board ™ MIKROE-1200 (I2C EEPROM) with address changed to 0x54
▶Click board ™ MIKROE-4422 (SPI EEPROM)
▶iesy OSM HDMI adapter
▶Micro USB cable for console port and USB OTG
The design of the base board of the iesy RPX30 EVA-MI already contains functions for future OSM
modules. For the iesy RPX30 OSM-SF these functions are not needed and for this reason not
equipped.
Our hardware and software is continuously improved and is also mostly open-source. For a trans-
parent insight into our design, you can find all errata and possible workarounds of the evaluation
platform on GitHub.

9. GETTING STARTED
Step 1 - Source-Medium
The iesy RPX30 EVA-MI supports boot from microSD and e-MMC on the module. Per default the
system boots from microSD where the iesy Demo Image is already pre-installed. Ensure that the
DIP-Switch is in position ON to select microSD.
Per default the e-MMC does not contain a boot image.
Step 2 - Debug-Console
For accessing the debug console connect a terminal Host to the COM-Port at the USB OTG (Mi-
cro-B). Set up your terminal with the following parameter:
> Baud-Rate 115.200 baud
> 8 bit, no parity/Flow-Control
Step 3 - HDMI and Camera (optional)
To connect a display an external Adapter is used to convert the MIPI DSI signals for HDMI. The
HDMI is optional for boot and running the system.
The monitor must support a resolution of Full HD (1920 x 1080 pixel) with 30 FPS.
Step 4 - Power Supply
Connect a power supply with voltage of 15 V up to 30 V to connectors XB17/XB18 or use a stan-
dard Plug-In power supply on XS3 (2.5 mm Jack). Recommended is a power supply with min. 35 W.
Step 5 - Boot
The system will boot up automatically when power is applied.
Step 6 - Login-Prompt
After Kernel boot login with user root. There is no password needed.

10. BASIC CONFIGURATION
Firmware
To download the latest firmware and BSP visit the iesy GitHub Repositories.
Boot-Configuration
For the iesy RPX30 EVA-MI the boot configuration and selection is done with a single DIP Switch
SH1 (BOOT_SEL0). microSD (ON) and e-MMC (OFF) can be selected.
Documentation on how to setup the boot device can be found within the Wiki pages of the meta-
iesy-osm Repository.
Note that the function of BOOT_SEL1 is not used for this Eval Kit.
Reset
Use TA2 to reset the module and all carrier peripherals. After releasing the reset button the boot
device selection is resampled.
Power-Button
Button TA3 (PWR_BTN) directly controls the Power on of the module. A long press on TA3 will shut
down the system and all internal power supply. After a short press the system will restart.
Recovery-Modus
There are two modes of recovery:
(1) If there is no valid boot information found on e-MMC or microSD the PX30 will run into
Maskrom-Mode. With the Rockchip Firmware Upgrade Tool a boot image can be written to the
boot device over USB OTG. The button RECOVERY# is not needed in this case.
(2) Pressing the button TA1 (RECOVERY#) during power on or Reset release the PX30 runs into
Rockusb-Mode even when a bootable image is found on the selected boot device.
Details for valid commands of the Rockchip Firmware Upgrade Tool can be found on the Wiki
pages of the meta-iesy-osm Repository.
