At the time of writing, the latest software/firmware version for TIDA-050043 is 3.0.1_3, which can be
verified using a simple Linux command.
root@timx6y:~# fw-version
firmware version : 3.0.1_3
There are many other Linux functions and commands that are useful for testing the power supplies and
consumption of TIDA-050043, and the next section provides some examples.
3.1.2.2 Example Linux Commands for Testing TIDA-050043
To figure out which I
2
C devices are on the bus, where "0" means I am looking for I
2
C devices on channel 0
(because the TPS6521815 should be here at 0x24):
root@timx6y:~# i2cdetect -y -r 0
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 a b c d e f

To verify dynamic voltage scaling is working for the PMIC with respect to the CPU frequency of the
processor, where 792 MHz corresponds to DCDC1 = 1.275 V while 900 MHz corresponds to DCDC1 =
1.325 V:
root@timx6y:~# echo userspace > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
root@timx6y:~# echo 900000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_setspeed
root@timx6y:~# echo 792000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_setspeed
To run a current sensor application and measure the current on any rail coming out of the TPS6521815
PMIC, where "1" in the first prompt is current sensor IC #1, "1" in the second prompt is channel 1, and
"
curr1_input " returns a value of 248 mA that is being used by the VDD_ARM and VDD_SOC rails:
root@timx6y:~# test_currentsensor
Enter current sensor no[1-2]: 1
Enter voltage Level[1-3]: 1

Alternatively, software has been written to set up the LCD screen and use it to display the real-time
current monitoring information in addition to displaying the time configured in the real-time clock (RTC)
supplied by the coin cell battery and the always-on power supply.
Figure 32 shows the LCD screen during
power-up, running color configurations tests, and displaying real-time current monitoring with labels and
converted values.
