A driver for a selfmade cheap BT8xx based PCI GPIO-card (bt8xxgpio)
|
|
===================================================================
|
|
|
|
For advanced documentation, see http://www.bu3sch.de/btgpio.php
|
|
|
|
A generic digital 24-port PCI GPIO card can be built out of an ordinary
|
|
Brooktree bt848, bt849, bt878 or bt879 based analog TV tuner card. The
|
|
Brooktree chip is used in old analog Hauppauge WinTV PCI cards. You can easily
|
|
find them used for low prices on the net.
|
|
|
|
The bt8xx chip does have 24 digital GPIO ports.
|
|
These ports are accessible via 24 pins on the SMD chip package.
|
|
|
|
|
|
How to physically access the GPIO pins
|
|
======================================
|
|
|
|
The are several ways to access these pins. One might unsolder the whole chip
|
|
and put it on a custom PCI board, or one might only unsolder each individual
|
|
GPIO pin and solder that to some tiny wire. As the chip package really is tiny
|
|
there are some advanced soldering skills needed in any case.
|
|
|
|
The physical pinouts are drawn in the following ASCII art.
|
|
The GPIO pins are marked with G00-G23::
