This repository contains the Pine64 fork of Bouffalo Lab's SDK for their BL602
Wi-Fi/BLE Combo RISC-V SoC. Documentation, including upstream documentation,
translations, mirrored technical documentation, and original reverse engineered
documentation is at bl602-docs <https://github.com/pine64/bl602-docs>_, which
is cloned as a submodule of this repository at docs. Use git submodule update --init to initialize the submodule.
This repository is the central focus of Pine64's
Nutcracker Challenge <https://www.pine64.org/2020/10/28/nutcracker-challenge-blob-free-wifi-ble/>_.
The main task is to reverse engineer the following files:
- `components/bl602/bl602_wifi/lib/libbl602_wifi.a <https://github.com/pine64/bl_iot_sdk/blob/master/components/bl602/bl602_wifi/lib/libbl602_wifi.a>`_
- `components/network/ble/blecontroller/lib/libblecontroller.a <https://github.com/pine64/bl_iot_sdk/blob/master/components/network/ble/blecontroller/lib/libblecontroller.a>`_
- `components/stage/atcmd/lib/libatcmd.a <https://github.com/pine64/bl_iot_sdk/blob/master/components/stage/atcmd/lib/libatcmd.a>`_
This is being done at bl602-re <https://github.com/pine64/bl602-re>_.
Documentation
You can find a lot of documentation on PINE64 Documentation Website <https://pine64.github.io/bl602-docs/>_
and PINE64 Documentation Repository <https://github.com/pine64/bl602-docs>_,
where you can find Datasheets, Reference Manuals and various other documentation
materials.
Quick Start
In order to build sample apps, you need to set a few environment variables::
export BL60X_SDK_PATH=/path/to/this/repo
export CONFIG_CHIP_NAME=BL602
In order to build all sample apps simply call make, for example::
make
To only build the sample app of interest, go to the directory of the app,
then call make, for example::
cd customer_app/bl602_boot2
make
Call
::
make CONFIG_TOOLPREFIX=riscv64-linux-gnu-
if you wish to bypass the bundled cross-compiler and using your distribution's own cross-compiler.
There is a linker script (written in python) at image_conf/flash_build.py.
To run this, you need to specify the application and the target, for example::
python3 flash_build.py bl602_boot2 bl602
Note: If you decide to copy any project outside of the customer_app folder,
you will need to define a few variables in order to compile it::
export BL60X_SDK_PATH=/path/to/this/repo export CONFIG_CHIP_NAME=bl602
Docker
To set up a development environment in Docker, and do a full build of all the example projects, using the bundled toolchain::
docker build -t bl602sdk -f Dockerfile.bundled
docker run -t -i --rm bl602sdk
# make
Hardware
BL602 is a 32-bit RISC-V based combo chipset supporting Wi-Fi and BLE (Bluetooth
Low Energy). The chip is made by Nanjing-based Bouffalo Lab <https://www.bouffalolab.com/bl602>_
for ultra-low-power applications. In terms of price range and feature set, the
chip is competing against Espressif ESP8266 <https://www.espressif.com/en/products/socs/esp8266>.
The RISC-V core is based on SiFive E24 <https://www.sifive.com/cores/e24>.
At the moment there are mainly three development boards:
PineCone <https://www.pine64.org/2020/10/28/nutcracker-challenge-blob-free-wifi-ble/>: USB-C evaluation board by Pine64 (datasheethere <https://www.cnx-software.com/pdf/schematics/Pine64%20BL602%20EVB%20Schematic%20ver%201.1.pdf>), RGB LED, CH340N USB-to-UART chipDoi.am DT-BL10 <https://www.cnx-software.com/2020/10/25/bl602-iot-sdk-and-5-dt-bl10-wifi-ble-risc-v-development-board/>_: micro USBOfficial BL EVB <https://twitter.com/nnn112358/status/1321289916249235457>_ (Sipeed early adopter program): mini USB, FTDI chip?
