Running AD2 on Raspberry pi 3 B

[jody]

Hi,

i have been trying to run waveforms on my Raspberry Pi 3 B but keep getting errors either by getting power from USB Port on Raspi (Overcurrent, although i checked the current limit to to 1A) or by using a power supply (5V, 2,5A), which is giving me under voltage error.

I read somewhere in the digilent forum that these power problems do occur in the older versions of Raspberry Pi (up to 3 B+) because of the USB 2.0, and have been sorted out as the Raspberry Pi 4 was released.

Had someone actually been able to run the AD2 on Raspberry Pi 3 B without problems? Any response is very much appreciated!

Thanks!

Hi @jody

The Analog Discovery is working with Raspberry PI 4 B and many other single board ARM computers.
It is not working with Raspberry PI 1, 2, 3 B It looks like there is incompatibility between USB controller and this.

thank you for the answer @attila i've been using the RPi 4 now and waveforms is working well.

Hi @jody

Unfortunately, depending on the capture rate you may notice communication errors (erc 0x02) after hours or days of continuous usage.
