accessing GPIO low power connector on DragonBoard 410C running Android

QUESTION

accessing GPIO low power connector on DragonBoard 410C running Android

Asked 2020-Sep-13 at 03:51

I'm working with a recently purchased DragonBoard 410C running the Android 5.1 operating system and using Android Studio with Kotlin for generating a sample application that explores some of the hardware such as the 40 pin low power connector.

My question is how to access the 40 pin low power connector with the GPIO pins using Kotlin and Android Studio.

From my research thus far, it appears that the mraa library is the path to success however I have been unable to find any documentation on using the library with Kotlin.

How do I get started with the mraa library with Kotlin to access the 40 pin low power connector?

Or is there a different approach?

My first example is a simple blink the LED application however I have no idea as to how to access pins of the low power connector using Kotlin.

Notes and resources

mraa documentation page

Libmraa is a C/C++ library with bindings to Python, Javascript and Java to interface with the I/O on Galileo, Edison & other platforms, with a structured and sane API where port names/numbering matches the board that you are on. Use of libmraa does not tie you to specific hardware with board detection done at runtime you can create portable code that will work across the supported platforms.

upm library for mraa GitHub repository

The UPM repository provides software drivers for a wide variety of commonly used sensors and actuators. These software drivers interact with the underlying hardware platform (or microcontroller), as well as with the attached sensors, through calls to MRAA APIs.

ANSWER

Answered 2020-Sep-13 at 03:51

After reviewing a number of alternatives, it appears that the easiest approach for accessing the GPIO pins of the DragonBoard 410C running Android 5.1 was to use the legacy sysfs special device files method.

I'm not sure if this is the only workable solution. Using Android Things as well as using libgpiod both seem to require a more recent Linux kernel than Android 5.1 uses.

I have written an article on CodeProject.com providing details about working up this solution. See Using Windows 10 for Development with DragonBoard 410C and Android.
