Major improvements for Powerboard Tyche despite adversity, but there is still work to be done
The hardware designer who created our Powerboard Tyche worked between April and July on one of the three prototypes, focusing on fixing the board firmware. These fixes required a series of checks to determine if any additional adjustments were needed for the board itself, and a complete analysis of electronic signals was performed. This analysis was provided later in September. The same fixes were applied to the second prototype (we have three prototypes).
Additionally, Max Tretene from ACube Systems was hard at work on our NXP T2080-based DevKit and completed a newer version of U-Boot in May, which finally enabled graphical output on AMD Radeon video cards during booting. You can find the updated source code on our GitLab. Below you can see the new U-Boot in action booting up the NXP T2080-based DevKit.
In August, the hardware designer sent back two prototypes to our firmware engineer. ACube Systems purchased an oscilloscope to continue analyzing signals on the prototypes, since the oscilloscope previously used by the firmware engineer was on loan.
