Re: MiSTer Not In A Shell Static Shock From My Finger Fried It

Hey, just wanted to say that I found a possible solution. It worked in my DE10, and because your problem was very similar to mine, it is worth the shot. Please check out here: viewtopic.php?t=6432

Re: Modify MiSTer Main to bring broken DE10 back to life

I now understand what you meant before. Yeah, it was my fault. I used GPIO17 as an abbreviation of GPIO-1 Pin 17. Sorry for the confusion, I will try to start using the correct terminology from now on. I don't think I have seen such abbreviation used anywhere else in the forum or the documentation.

Re: Modify MiSTer Main to bring broken DE10 back to life

I have a question: Where are these mentions of GPIO13, 15 and 17? This is plainly wrong. They should be referred as J7 Pins 13, 15 and 17 or GPIO-1 Pins 13, 15 and 17. The information is coming from the DE10-Nano User Manual: 1) Figure 3-20 - GPIO Pin Arrangement (Page 28) 2) Table 3-10 - Show all Pin Assignment of Expansion Headers (Page 29) I th...

Re: Modify MiSTer Main to bring broken DE10 back to life

Ok, so here is what I did. Sorry for the delay, work and life got in the way :( I was failing to identify any clear reference to GPIO pin 17 in the code or the diagrams, as 'thorr' clearly suggested in one of the comments. Until I saw this image: 20-pin_header_pin-out.png Here, the reset button connected to GPIO17 is actually referred to as GPIO_1[...

Re: Modify MiSTer Main to bring broken DE10 back to life

So this weekend I had a breakthrough, my dead DE10 is alive and kicking again! I will report the findings and how I did it later today.
Thanks everyone for the help, I couldn't have done it without your insights!

Re: Modify MiSTer Main to bring broken DE10 back to life

Yes, I did look at the circuit board but couldn't find anything that could indicate what is broken/burnt. About the resistor or something that might be causing the problem, it is a really good idea but I don't know where to start looking in the board and not sure how to test that with the multimeter. I am assuming that different components should b...

Modify MiSTer Main to bring broken DE10 back to life

Hi everyone! I need some assistance from MiSTer devs to modify and compile Main code in order to bring back to life a dead DE10 Nano. TL;DR: DE10 Nano has shorted GPIO17 (Reset), confirmed via multimeter Board behaves as if the reset button is constantly pressed, preventing the load of MiSTer Need help to modify MiSTer Main to prevent reading the r...

Re: MiSTer Not In A Shell Static Shock From My Finger Fried It

I experienced the same issue a year ago: https://misterfpga.org/viewtopic.php?t=2050 Same symptoms, mister won't run at all but the mister fusion and de10 sd card work fine. I was even able to run the fpga demos from the de10 linux image for fast Fourier transform and blinking lights fine. I bought a new de10 nano but the old one is still collectin...

Re: Static electricity discharge in reset button killed DE10?

Sadly no, I have not found or fixed the problem during these last few months. A new DE10 arrived and after replacing it, using the same SD card, 128MB SDRAM and 6.1 IO Board and adding a really cool acrylic case (from MiSTerFPGA.co.uk), I forgot about it and left the broken DE10 collecting dust in a shelf. In the mean time, I got a 32MB SDRAM and I...

Re: Static electricity discharge in reset button killed DE10?

Thanks for the fast reply! Yes, I removed both the I/O board and the 128MB Memory Module SDRAM and MiSTer still doesn't boot. However, this only applies to MiSTer, the MiSTer installer and the dev kit from the DE10 boot up and work ok (image shows up via HDMI). Assuming that this is what happened: static electricity killed de10-nano GPIO pin and ma...

Static electricity discharge in reset button killed DE10?

Hello everyone! I think that my DE10 Nano is partially broken and was hoping to identify the source of the problem and fix it if possible. TL;DR: I felt a small static electricity discharge when pressing the IOBoard reset button. After that MiSTer didn't work anymore. After debugging and checking a lot of things, I think that the reset button in th...
