extending driver mrf24j40

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all,

I'm using 2 lowpan transceivers on a Raspberry Pi namely openlabs at86rf233 and microchip mrf24j40ma. I found that the latter one seams to be somewhat _incomplete_, that is it doesn't support handles for _reset_ and _wake/sleep_ gpio-pin configuration. Further, this makes connecting the mrf24j40ma to the RasPi pinout inconvenient (IMHO). On the other hand the atmel driver (at86rf230)[1] does support these functions, so I'd like to _port_ the reset and sleep functionality into the mrf24j40 driver[2]. 

Is anybody working on this, and if not: do you think it is useful/worth while doing so? I'm willing to work on that and implement these extension, maybe also restructure/clean up the driver code a little bit in this process.

So any thoughts on this and/or hints, comments ...

Thanks, best
  Sebastian
