'ODROID-N2' on this page refers to the ODROID-N2 series (N2, N2+, N2L).

Power Off and Wake Up using GPIO Key Button

  • This section is based on the ORDOID-N2.
  • But It also works on the ODROID-C4.

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.

  1. Connect a tab button to the pin port you want to use
  2. Set GPIO number using boot.ini



Here is an example.

We use following items.

A reference of circuit connections with the button is as following.

  • Please consider suitable series resistance values with your LEDs.
  • For example, 100 ohm for a standard red led (1.2V/20mA).

For this example, we will use Pin#11 of 40pin expansion connector.

The pin is assigned to GPIOX.BIT3 and its GPIO number is #479.
Connect the red line to Pin#11.

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 (ex:Pin#9).

Function N2 Pin Assign C4 Pin Assign GPIO Number
Button GPIO #11 (GPIO) #11 (GPIO) 479
Button Active #9 (GND) #9 (GND) -
LED Positive #1 (3.3V) #1 (3.3V) -
LED Negative #6 (GND) #6 (GND) -

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.

[ Known Issue ]

  • Some ports those default level is pull-down are not available with the latest release version.
  • Pin#5 and Pin#28 don't work normally for wake-up after poweroff because of the default level (1.1V).

Just add the three lines in the above example in to your boot.ini file.
The latest boot.ini file

To wake-up after power off, long-pressing over 2 seconds is needed.

For LED heartbeat action, you need to modify this dtsi file, build dtb image again and replace meson64_odroidn2.dtb in /media/boot.

ex) GPIOX.BIT12, Pin#8

	leds {
		compatible = "gpio-leds";
		blueled {
			label = "blue:heartbeat";
			gpios = <&gpio GPIOX_12 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
			linux,default-trigger = "heartbeat";
		};
	};

Function N2 Pin Assign C4 Pin Assign GPIO Number
Button GPIO #11 #11 479
Button Active #9 #9 -
LED Positive #8 #8 488
LED Negative #6 #6 -

Install device-tree-compiler first.

target
root@odroid:~$ sudo apt-get install device-tree-compiler

Backup your original dtb file.

target
root@odroid:~$ sudo cp /media/boot/meson64_odroidn2.dtb /media/boot/meson64_odroidn2.dtb.backup

Check the current leds node.
The original led gpio is GPIOAO_11 and it's used as heartbeat blue led.

target
root@odroid:~$ fdtget /media/boot/meson64_odroidn2.dtb /leds/blueled gpios
24 11 0

Now, change the node.
For this example, new led gpio is GPIOX_12.

target
root@odroid:~$ fdtput /media/boot/meson64_odroidn2.dtb /leds/blueled gpios 26 78 0
target
root@odroid:~$ fdtget /media/boot/meson64_odroidn2.dtb /leds/blueled gpios
26 78 0

Then, do system reboot.

target
$ sudo reboot

There are 3 arguments in 'gpios'.

gpios = <&gpio_ao  GPIOAO_11  GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;

1st argument

It can be one of &gpio or &gpio_ao.

&gpio 26
&gpio_ao 24

2nd argument

3rd argument

It can be one of GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH or GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW.
