Power Off and Wake Up using GPIO Key Button
This section describes how to set up GPIO key button for power off and wake up purpose.
The brief set-up flow is as following.
- Connect a tab button to the pin port you want to use
- Set GPIO number using boot.ini
- Compiling and flash the modified kernel dts : This part is only needed on ANDROID.
1. Hardware Set-Up
First, You need to prepare a tab switch that are connected to two lines.
Red line is for Power Button and another Gray line is for the active level line (Ground or 3.3V Power).
For example, we will use Pin#29 of 40pin expansion connector.
The pin is assigned to GPIOX.BIT0 and its GPIO number is #228.
Connect the red line to Pin#29.
Its default pin pulled status is high and switch active will be Low, so you should connect the gray line of tab switch to Ground (GND), Pin#30.
Pin Number (Red Line) | GPIO Number | Active Level (Gray Line) |
---|---|---|
29 | GPIO#228 | Active Low (Pin 30) |
2. Available Keys
Here are the available key examples using 40-pin connector and 7-pin connector.
You can find the pin assign examples for Red Line and Gray Line.
(1) J2 - 2×20 pins
Active Level (Gray Line) | GPIO Number | Pin Number (Red Line) | Pin Number (Red Line) | GPIO Number | Active Level (Gray Line) |

Expansion Connectors
3. SW Set-up (1) - Ubuntu
- Ubuntu : The release version should be 3.14.79-107 (Feb 26, 2017) or higher.
(1) Setting boot.ini
You can assign GPIO number with env gpiopower in boot.ini.
- target
## gpio power key : J2 (2x20) Pin#29 , GPIOX.BIT0 setenv gpiopower "228" ... ... ## Add gpiopower like "setenv bootargs ${bootargs} gpiopower=${gpiopower}" setenv bootargs "root=UUID=e139ce78-9841-40fe-8823-96a304a09859 rootwait ro ${condev} no_console_suspend hdmimode=${m} ${cmode} m_bpp=${m_bpp} vout=${vout} fsck.repair=yes net.ifnames=0 elevator=noop disablehpd=${hpd} max_freq=${max_freq} maxcpus=${maxcpus} monitor_onoff=${monitor_onoff} disableuhs=${disableuhs} mmc_removable=${mmc_removable} usbmulticam=${usbmulticam} ${hid_quirks} gpiopower=${gpiopower}"
(2) Setting Power Button Action for Power Off
When you turn the board off using power button, you need to change the power key action pattern.
- Open Power Management Preferences : [System] → [Preferences] → [Hardware] → [Power Management]
- and then Select [General] tab
(3) Wake up Action
To wake-up after power off, long-pressing over 2 seconds is needed.
