Cpu minimum frequency ? Topic is solved

[boguslaw]

How can be set the minimum frequency of 480Mhz ? I need it for reliable reading db18s20 Dallas temperature sensor.

How can be set the minimum frequency of 480Mhz ? I need it for reliable reading db18s20 Dallas temperature sensor.

Depends on the device, but this should do it:

Code: Select all

echo 480000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq

Thank you, I'm using Orange Pi Zero. I found that sometimes I cannot read from /sys/bus/w1/devices/28*/w1_slave and it is probably due to low frequency of cpu causing bug in temperature computation.

Is there any other workaround to make readings from Dallas ds18b20 1-wire thermometer reliable all the time ?

Wish I could help, but I have absolutely no idea, sorry. Hopefully someone else with experience can chip in here.

I have similar issues with FriendlyArm's NanoPi NEO Air: http://www.friendlyarm.com/Forum/viewto ... f=47&t=393

It's still a workaround: Whenever reading the DS18B20 (in my case every 60 seconds), i start a second process which consumes cpu time. The python code can be found here: https://github.com/thomaspfeiffer-git/r ... /DS1820.py

Additionally i ordered a 1-wire to I2C device (DS2482-100). This might be a working work-around as well.
