This is test report 3 in the series of tests on the “BBB doesn’t boot” issue, discussed here on the BBB mailing list.
The present test is accompanying this specific post in the discussion thread.
The goal of the test is to establish under which conditions the U15.2 (1A) input provides a stable boot experience. The four test subjects are a strong pull down of 990 ohm and 0 ohm, and voltage divider circuits using 0 ohm and 1k ohm fixing the voltage at respectively 3.3V and 0.58V.
The strong pull down of 990 ohm and 0 ohm on B_UART0_RX doesn’t prove successful, as was also the case with the weaker pull down of 45k2 ohm in test report 2, and the factory mounted pull down of 100k ohm.
But providing a stable 3.3V or 0.58V using a voltage divider with resistor values 0 ohm and 1k ohm results in a booting BBB in every test case!
This is analogous with the result of test 2 in test report 2, which established the same fact, but for B_UART0_RX = 1.81V using a 82k5 ohm resistor.
The second picture below shows an easy and safe way to establish the condition of test 3 as a permanent fix on the backside of the BBB pcb. It places an insulated wire between VDD_3V3B from terminal 5 on the non-populated P2″CTI JTAG, DNI” header and the B_UART0_RX signal on J1 (UART0 Serial Port) pin 4.

Connect cable Mini-B male to DUT USB Mini-B female. Insert PSU into mains socket. Test boot capability of DUT by inserting the cable's USB A connector into the PSU while keeping the USB Mini-B connector inserted into the DUT. Then verify that the power led (D1) light up, and note whether boot succeeded or failed by watching if USR0-USR3 leds (D2-D5) lights up indicating boot. Then remove the A connector from the mains adaptor inserting it immediately repeating the test. Results can be seen in section Test Results. ** Interpretation Test 1 failure rate= 2 fails/60 boots= *3.33%* Test 2 failure rate= 3 fails/60 boots= *5.00%* Test 3 failure rate= 0 fails/100 boots= *0.00%* Test 4 failure rate= 0 fails/60 boots= *0.00%* The tests 1 & 2 shows that forming first a strong pull down (replacing 100k with 9k1) and then a short forcing 0V on B_UART0_RX, doesn't prevent the failure to occur. Whereas test 3+4 shows that forming a voltage divider which fixes the voltage instead of just pulling up/down indeed makes the system boot at every power up. Overall this indicates that the flickering of U15's output 1Y could be caused internally in U15 by a spurious input signal on input 1A during power up. This can't be elleviated by inserting pull-up/downs, but creating a stable input signal on 1A by a voltage divider does solvs the boot issue, disregarding whether this voltage is low (0.58V) or high (3.3V). ** Test results | Boot no. | Test 1 | Test 2 | Test 3 | Test 4 | | 1 | boot | no boot | boot | boot | | 2 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 3 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 4 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 5 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 6 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 7 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 8 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 9 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 10 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 11 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 12 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 13 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 14 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 15 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 16 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 17 | boot | no boot | boot | boot | | 18 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 19 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 20 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 21 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 22 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 23 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 24 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 25 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 26 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 27 | no boot | boot | boot | boot | | 28 | boot | no boot | boot | boot | | 29 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 30 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 31 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 32 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 33 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 34 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 35 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 36 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 37 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 38 | no boot | boot | boot | boot | | 39 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 40 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 41 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 52 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 53 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 44 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 45 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 46 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 47 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 48 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 49 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 50 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 51 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 52 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 53 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 54 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 55 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 56 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 57 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 58 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 59 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 60 | boot | boot | boot | boot | | 61 | ------- | -------- | boot | ------- | | 62 | | | boot | | | 63 | | | boot | | | 64 | | | boot | | | 65 | | | boot | | | 67 | | | boot | | | 68 | | | boot | | | 69 | | | boot | | | 70 | | | boot | | | 71 | | | boot | | | 72 | | | boot | | | 73 | | | boot | | | 74 | | | boot | | | 75 | | | boot | | | 76 | | | boot | | | 77 | | | boot | | | 78 | | | boot | | | 79 | | | boot | | | 80 | | | boot | | | 81 | | | boot | | | 82 | | | boot | | | 83 | | | boot | | | 84 | | | boot | | | 85 | | | boot | | | 86 | | | boot | | | 87 | | | boot | | | 88 | | | boot | | | 89 | | | boot | | | 90 | | | boot | | | 91 | | | boot | | | 92 | | | boot | | | 93 | | | boot | | | 94 | | | boot | | | 95 | | | boot | | | 96 | | | boot | | | 97 | | | boot | | | 98 | | | boot | | | 99 | | | boot | | | 100 | | | boot | | | | | | ------ | |
Investigating further on the BBB boot issue described in this earlier post and following discussion in the mailinglist, here is a test of another BBB modification trying to remedy this.
This time the modification is done on the non-cpu side of U15 (75LVC2G241 buffer/driver), where the buffered uart0 input (B_UART0_RX) is kept stable using a voltage divider. B_UART0_RX is already pulled low by a 100k resistor, but adding another 82k5 ohms pulling against 3,3v makes up a voltage divider, keeping input 1A on U15 stable at all times at approx. half (~55%) of the voltage between VDD_3V3B and DGND. At stable 3,3V that voltage will be 3.3V*100k/(82k5+100k)= 1.81V (EDIT: first edition of this post erroneously stated the voltage drop of ~1.4V over the pull up as the B_UART0_RX’s voltage level).
Beware that this modification might affect the functionality of uart0 rx capability. I’ll probably test this some time soon (TM) when I got access to my TTL<->USB converter.
These results are summed up in this post on the BBB mailinglist.
Providing a stable B_UART0_RX at 1.8V results in a booting BBB in every test case!
The third picture below shows an easy and relatively safe way to make this a permanent fix on the backside of the BBB. It places a resistor (this one is 82k5 ohm ) between VDD_3V3B from terminal 5 on the non-populated P2 header marked as “CTI JTAG, DNI” and the B_UART0_RX signal on J2 (UART0 Serial Port) pin 4.
Mocked up voltage divider keeping B_UART0_RX stable. Test equipment and setup. First attempt at a more robust modification on the solder side of the PCB.

I’ve been hit by the “periodic boot failure” issue of the Beaglebone Black (aka BBB) reported by quite a few on the net. For most users this is an inconvenient annoyance, but for people, like me, using the platform in embedded applications, this issue causes a serious stability issue of the whole system, when 100% reliable boot is not achievable.
After having hunches about instability caused by the intermittent experiences during development, where the board was seen failing boot on power on, and not getting much more help from the net than “try the recommended power supply” (which btw. I can’t use because I live in a country where main sockets are non-US, even a bit non-European standard) I decided to make a systematic test to get the basic facts straight.
I settled on trying to establish some reasonable statistics about the error’s frequency on plain BBBs to have a reference against testing whether a theory put forward on the mailinglist (here and here) about the uboot bootloader being confused by noise being interpreted as valid data on UART0_RXD (pin E15) of the AM3358x (see near U15 page 4, of the BBB REV B schematics) as the cause of the failure.
This is the results (test report detailed below), I’m posting a writeup in the Beagleboard mailinglist (Edit: my post here), so hopefully you’ll find further discussion about this issue there soon.
The two differing Element14 branded BBB products I have access to, but both PCB REV B6, exhibits a somewhat varying boot failure rate. But overall the boards fail to boot in almost 4 of 100 boots.
Investigating the theory relating to noise on UART0_RXD seems to have paid off, as first removing U15 (SN74LVC2G241: Dual Buffer/Driver With 3-State Outputs) for the purpose of adding a pull down on its pad 6 (which is connected to UART0_RXD) alleviated the problem altogether. But also the experiment of removing the pull down and redo the test, showed that the act of removing U15 itself caused the boot to always succeed.
Unfortunately, in hindsight, I was too quick to grab the soldering iron, because I should have verified and quantized the occurrence of the failure on the actual board being modified. A shame It didn’t occur to me before modification, but I’ll be more than willing to try to remove U15 on DUT#2, which has had the highest failure rate, if discussions prove that it is a reasonable theory of the root cause of the failure. That is why I continued testing it through to 120 boots, to get more samples for improving statistics in the event that I pull U15 from it later.
The success of removing U15 could be caused by the now floating AM3388 input UART0_RXD (pin E15) which presumably has a default weak internal pull up/down (the AM335x TRM says reset value is pad-dependent (register conf_uart0_rxd in Table 9.7 p. 1366 and Section 9.3.1.50 p. 1420), which I haven’t yet figured out the exact meaning of) stabilizing the signal
The activity when U15 is in place is somehow exhibited on output 1Y (pin 6) , probably because it is not stable, and thus has an erratic state, during the first moments of the chips power up sequence. This erratic behaviour can in fortunate/unfortunate circumstances be interpreted as valid bits and resulting bytes by the uart rxd cirtcuitry, which also can happen to be latched into the uart fifo rx buffer, waiting for uboot to read them when its code is executed looking for a user interrupt.
I’ll put in the disclaimer on this thesis, that I haven’t yet studied U15 in detail, but it is advertised as both a level converter, ESD protection and power live-insertion/partial-power-down suggesting it does something in reaction to it’s power condition.
Also the recommendation on page 1 of its datasheet; “To ensure the high-impedance state during power up or power down, OE (active low) should be tied to VCC through a pullup resistor, and OE (active high) should be tied to GND through a pulldown resistor”, seems not to be followed in the BBB circutry, as the OEs are hardwired in to be always active (opposite of the recommendation in the power up/down condition). If this is actually a problem, I need to do further analysis to establish.
* BBB boot lockup test report ** Device under test #1: Modified Beaglebone Black produced by CircuitCo (PCB REV B6, serial 007142901445, marked "beaglebone"+ beagle logo and "beagleboard.org"). Modified by adding hard pulldown resistor on TI AM3358 pin E15 (uart0 rx). Specifically U15 was removed and terminal pin 6 (1Y=UART0_RX) was shorted to J1 pin 1 through a 82k5 ohm resistor. ** Device under test #2: Unmodified Beaglebone Black (BBB) produced by Element 14 (PCB REV B6, serial EM-400524+XA6001961, marked "Element 14"). ** Device under test #3: Unmodified Beaglebone Black (BBB) produced by mbest (PCB REV B6, serial EM-400441+XA3001688). ** Power supply Jentec Technologies CF1805-E, output 5V 3A. Danish plug. Sourced from a D-Link DUB-H7 USB 2.0 HUB. ** Test 1 procedure Each Beaglebone was tested by consequtively applying power by inserting the plug into the mains socket while keeping the DC barrel connector inserted and verifying that the power led light up, and then noting whether boot from SD-card succeeded or failed. Then removing the PSU from the mains connector waiting 5 seconds and repeat. The power supply and SD-card used was the same for all three DUTs.
