XO4 A2 ECOs
These are recommended engineering change orders (ECOs) to the A2 prototype of the XO-4 laptop. This is NOT a list of changes from A2 to B1, that is located elsewhere.
Fixing +3.3V_SOC
This fixes a problem where +3.3V_SOC doesn't quite turn on.
- Change PR79 to a 10K resistor
Fixing EC Programming by the SOC
This fixes the inability of the SOC to reprogram the EC.
- Add a 3K pullup resistor to +3.3V_NAND to EC_EDI_DO
Pulse JTAG Reset at start of day
Marvell added a requirement to assert JTAG reset only at the start of day.
- Add a small schottky between EN_+1.35V_DDR3 and PRI_TRST#. The cathode of the diode should be connected to EN_+1.35V_DDR3.
- Remove the 100K resistor from R335.
- Populate R334 with a 100K resistor.
Fix MMP3 B0 errata 1.15
- Replace R45 with a 10 ohm resistor
- Place three diodes in series between +1.8V_SOC_AVDD_FE and GND, with the cathode connected to GND.
Changing to a +1.8V SPI Flash
Until we get the voltage translator working at SPI Flash speeds, we are disabling it and using a +1.8V 1 MByte SPI Flash ROM for U17.
- Depopulate R280 (0 ohm)
- Populate R281 with a 0 ohm resistor
- Populate R246 with a 120K resistor
- Replace U17 with a +1.8V SPI Flash
- Short Q27, pins 1 and 3
- Short Q28, pins 1 and 3
- Short Q29, pins 1 and 3
- Short D4, pins 1 and 2
Fixing SOC/EC Communications
This removes much of the voltage translation circuitry which was added to support an eventual change of masters in the EC/SOC SDI (SPI) bus. It fixes a reliability problem when talking to the EC.
- Remove the resistors from the following locations: R94 (3K), R98 (3K), R253 (3K), R258 (3K), R372 (1.2K), R373 (1.2K), and R375 (1.2K).
- Replace D18 with a 3K resistor.
- Remove Q38, and place a 3K resistor between pins 1 and 3
- Remove Q36, and place a 3K resistor between pins 1 and 3
- Add a 3K pullup resistor to +3.3VSUS_EC (or +3.3VSUS) to EC_SDI_MISO (Q37, pin 3).
- Add a 3.6K pulldown from SDI_MOSI (D18 anode) to GND
- Add a 3.6K pulldown from SDI_CLK (Q36.1) to GND
- Add a 3.6K pulldown from SDI_CS# (Q38.1) to GND
Alternate
An alternate fix for this problem was done to most boards:
- Add a 3K pullup resistor to +3.3VSUS_EC (or +3.3VSUS) to EC_SDI_MISO (Q37, pin 3).
- Add a 68 pF capacitor between Q36 pin 1 and GND
