Errata/Known issues

Issue #	Status	Subject

Dahlia carrier Board 1.1A
HAR-3672	Known Issue	CTRL_FORCE_OFF_MOCI# has pull-down instead of pull-up resistor
Description: The CTRL_FORCE_OFF_MOCI# input on the Dahlia carrier board features a 1MΩ pull-down resistor instead of a pull-up resistor. In the Verdin family definition, the CTRL_FORCE_OFF_MOCI# signal is specified as open-drain signal that is 5V tolerant. The pull-up resistor is supposed to be on the carrier board. Without this pull-up resistor, the CTRL_FORCE_OFF_MOCI# remains low and therefore is asserted all the time. The CTRL_FORCE_OFF_MOCI# signal is permanently pulling down the kill input of the power button IC LTC2954 (IC10). The LTC2954 ignores the kill input for the first 512ms after turning on. After this internal timer is expired, the kill signal will power off the system. This means pressing the power button on the Dahlia carrier board will turn on the power only for 512ms. Workaround: Removing R96 disables the CTRL_FORCE_OFF_MOCI# signal on the Dahlia carrier board. However, this disables the “kill-feature” entirely. Therefore, after a shutdown, the main supplies are not turned off. For turning off the main power rails, the power button needs to be pressed for >7s. Besides this inconvenience, the modification is compatible with all Verdin module versions.
Backlog
HAR-3284	Known Issue	SD_1_CD# circuit is pulled up to wrong rail
Description: The power for the MicroSD Card cannot be turned off. This is not fully compliant with the SD card specifications. Workaround: A public workaround is not needed, a hardware patch has been implemented on the product to solve this issue.
HAR-3351	Known Issue	Cypress USB-C PD detection chip does not behave as expected on Type-A to Type-C cables
Description: Because of the unexpected behaviour of the Cypress USB-C PD detection chip, the Dahlia board is turning on even with an improper USB power source. Workaround: Use the Dahlia Carrier board only with suitable USB power sources. Alternatively, USB Type-A to Type-C cables or adapters without a pull-up resistor on CC line can be used.
HAR-3302	Known Issue	System doesn't boot with Verdin DSI to LVDS Adapter attached
Description: When using Verdin DSI to LVDS Adapter inserted to X17, Carrier Board with the 10.1” LVDS display attached to the adapter will fail if it is powered from the 5V power source. Workaround: Use USB-C PD power supplies with at least 9V or power the board over the barrel connector with at least 9V. Use a good USB cable. The quality of the cables has an impact on the +V_SUPPLY_FILT voltage stability.
