Introduction of SG2000​

SG2000 is a high-performance, low-power chip designed for various product fields such as edge intelligent surveillance IP cameras, local facial recognition attendance machines, and smart home devices. It integrates H.264/H.265 video compression and decoding and ISP capabilities. It supports various image enhancement and correction algorithms like HDR wide dynamic range, 3D noise reduction, defogging, and lens distortion correction, providing customers with professional-grade video image quality.

The chip also integrates an in-house TPU, delivering approximately 0.5TOPS of computing power under INT8 operations. The specially designed TPU scheduling engine efficiently provides high-bandwidth data flow for tensor processing unit cores. It also offers users a powerful deep learning model compiler and software SDK development kit. Mainstream deep learning frameworks such as Caffe, Pytorch, ONNX, MXNet, and TensorFlow (Lite) can be easily ported to this platform.

Duo Module 01 EVB User Guide​

RISC-V and ARM switching​

The large core of Duo Module 01 EVB can choose to use RISC-V or ARM processor, which can be set through the switch on the board. If you find that Duo Module 01 EVB cannot start normally during use, please first check whether the switch is consistent with the firmware used.

Document Pictures

If the debug serial port is connected, you can see in the first line of the boot log that starting with C means starting from the RISC-V core, and starting with B means starting from the ARM core.

  • RISC-V: 
    C.SCS/0/0.C.SCS/0/0.WD.URPL.USBI.USBW
  • ARM: 
    B.SCS/0/0.WD.URPL.B.SCS/0/0.WD.URPL.USBI.USBW

Usage of USB Type A interfaces​

The USB functions of the EVB USB Type A interface and Type C interface are optional and cannot be used at the same time. The default firmware is configured with the USB network port (USB-NCM) function of the Type C port. If you need to switch to the USB 2.0 HOST port of the Type A port for use with USB flash drives and other devices, you need to execute the following command:

ln -sf /mnt/system/usb-host.sh /mnt/system/usb.sh
sync

Then execute the reboot command or power on again to make it take effect.

For example, after connecting a USB flash drive to the USB A port, you can use ls /dev/sd* to check whether the device is detected.

Mount it to the system to view the contents of the USB flash drive (take /dev/sda1 as an example):

mkdir /mnt/udisk
mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/udisk

Check whether the contents of the /mnt/udisk directory are as expected:

ls /mnt/udisk

Command to uninstall USB flash drive:

umount /mnt/udisk

When you want to restore the USB network (USB-NCM) function of the Type C port, execute:

rm /mnt/system/usb.sh
ln -sf /mnt/system/usb-ncm.sh /mnt/system/usb.sh
sync

Then execute the reboot command or power on again to make it take effect.

tip

Duo Module 01 EVB has an onboard Ethernet interface, so the USB network port (USB-NCM) of the Type C port can be used without switching to the USB 2.0 Host function of the A port.

Fixed ethernet port MAC address​

If you need to assign a fixed MAC address to the Ethernet port of EVB, please execute the following command:

tip

Replace the MAC address in the command with the MAC address you want to set, and please note that MAC addresses of different devices within the same network segment must not be duplicated

echo "pre-up ifconfig eth0 hw ether 78:01:B3:FC:E8:55" >> /etc/network/interfaces && sync

then reboot the board.

UART Serial Console​

Duo Module 01 EVB has a reserved UART debug serial port, which can be used to view the system startup log, or to log in to the console after the system starts and execute some terminal commands.

USB-TTL Serial Cable​

The serial port level of Duo series is 3.3V.

The pin definitions of common USB to TTL serial cables are as follows:

Document Pictures

Connection​

Connect the USB to TTL serial cable as shown below, leaving the red wire unconnected.

Milk-V DouS<--->USB to TTL
GND (pin 6)<--->Black wire
TX (pin 8)<--->White wire
RX (pin 10)<--->Green wire
Document Pictures

The default serial port parameters of EVB are as follows:

baudrate: 115200
data bit: 8
stop bit: 1
parity  : none
flow control: none

WIFI configuration​

Method 1​

Edit the following file and replace ssid and psk with the WIFI account and password to be connected:

/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ap_scan=1
update_config=1

network={
  ssid="wifi_test"
  psk="12345678"
  key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
}

Then execute the following command:

wpa_supplicant -B -i wlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf

You can connect to WIFI. After connecting, you can view the assigned IP address through the ifconfig or ip a command.

If you need to automatically connect to the WIFI when booting, you can put the following command in the /mnt/system/auto.sh file.

interface="wlan0"
max_attempts=100
attempt=0
log_file="/var/log/auto.sh.log"

# Continuously attempt to detect if the interface exists, up to $max_attempts times
echo "start auto.sh" > "$log_file"
while [ $attempt -lt $max_attempts ]; do
    # Check if the wlan0 interface exists
    ip link show "$interface" > /dev/null 2>&1
    if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
        echo "$(date +'%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S') $interface interface exists, starting wpa_supplicant..." >> "$log_file"
        wpa_supplicant -B -i "$interface" -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf >> "$log_file"
        break  # Exit the loop if the interface is found
    else
        echo "$(date +'%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S') $interface interface not found, waiting..." >> "$log_file"
        sleep 1  # Wait for 1 second before checking again
        attempt=$((attempt + 1))  # Increment the attempt counter
    fi
done

# If the maximum number of attempts is reached and the interface still not found, output an error message
if [ $attempt -eq $max_attempts ]; then
    echo "$(date +'%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S') Interface $interface not found after $max_attempts attempts" >> "$log_file"
fi

Fixed WIFI MAC address​

Duo Module 01 EVB WIFI MAC address is randomly assigned. If you need to assign a fixed MAC address to the WIFI of EVB, please execute the following command::

tip

Replace the MAC address in the command with the MAC address you want to set, and please note that MAC addresses of different devices within the same network segment must not be duplicated

echo "MAC_ADDR=11:22:33:44:55:66" > /mnt/system/firmware/aic8800/rwnx_settings.ini && sync

then reboot the board.
