Thu May 6 17:25:14 BST 2021
This board has been supported in the ar71xx.
Links:
* https://mikrotik.com/product/RB912UAG-2HPnD
* https://openwrt.org/toh/hwdata/mikrotik/mikrotik_rb912uag-2hpnd
Hardware:
* SoC: Atheros AR9342, 1 core, 600MHz, MIPS, code name "Wasp"
(like AR9341, AR9344, AR9350),
* RAM: DDR 64MB,
* Storage:
* 64KB SPI NOR: chip Winbond 25X05. With Mikrotik first-stage Bootloader
and hardware config (Ethernet MAC addr, wireless calibration data, etc).
Driver: upstream m25p80/spi-nor.
* 128MB NAND: chip Winbond W29N01GV. With Mikrotik second-stage Bootloader,
kernel, initramfs, rootfs and user data. Driver: ad-hoc rb91x-nand,
since Mikrotik guys doesn't use a SoC NAND controller on this board and
controls NAND chip through gpio lines multiplexed with data lines by a
latch,
* Ethernet: x1 10/10/1000 port with POE, MAC is embedded in SoC and is
managed by upstream ag71xx driver. PHY is on the separate chip AR8033,
connected through RGMII and MDIO and controlled by upstream at803x driver,
* Wi-Fi: 802.11bgn, MAC in SoC, driver: ath9k, wireless calibration data
is in SPI NOR flash in hard_config partition (offset 0x1000),
* PCIe: host controller embedded in SoC. Driver: ar724x. On PCIe there is
only USB 2.0 ECHI host controller, connected to USB port and mPCIe slot,
that can be used for LTE cell modem. Only one can be powerd at the same
time.
* SoC GPIO: 23 lines, driver: ath79-gpio,
* SPI bus: SPI controller is embedded in SoC. 3 nCS lines. Devices:
SPI NOR flash (nCS 0) and a Shift Register (see below, uses gpio line as
nCS). Driver: ath79-spi.
* Shift register: 8-bit, on SPI bus, chip 74HC595, driver: 74x164,
nCS is on gpio line,
* Latch: 8-bit latch, chip NXP LVC573A. Used for multiplaction of
NAND control and data lines (NAND connected to SoC GPIO lines).
Several lines of the latch, that is not used for NAND control lines,
are used for power LED and user LED and nCS of a shift register,
* Button: controlled by ???
* Beeper/buzzer: controller by SoC gpio line ???
* LEDs: 5 general purpose LEDs connected to the shift register,
power LED and user LED, connected to the latch. All them can be
controlled by software. Ethernet phy LED,
What is working:
* Gigabit Ethernet (should be tested more under load),
* SPI NOR and NAND flash (sysupgrade can be used),
* 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi ('iw dev wlan0 scan' is working),
* LEDs,
What is not working:
* USB port and mPCIe slot,
* Beeper,
* Button,
You can flash image by sysupgrade utility or load it by net
(by DHCP/TFTP, hold the button while booting).
