Edukit ATECC608B & AWS IOT & UiFlow

gabrielgc75

@ajb2k3 Thank you for your reply, but in UIFlow I can add it like a unit, in port I select custom (SDA/TX:21,SCL/RX:22), with this the DEMO1 in the UNIT ID works ok. In the Demo2 it crashes and it restarts.

In UiFlow these are the available blocks for the ID unit (ATECC608B):
WAKE UP:
wake up

READ:
get info
read config zone
serial number
revision number
confi lock status
data otp lock status
slot0 lock status
public key 64 bytes
signature
random min, max
config zone
key config
slot config

Write:
generate public key
write config zone
lock config
create new key pair
lock data and OTP
lock data slot0
create signature data
veify signature message
sha256
update random 32 bytes

The problem is that I can not find more information about how to use these blocks.

ajb2k3

Sorry, I wasn't aware there were blocks for the ATECC

OK just tried it my self and getting

@ajb2k3 Thank you for validating it, now the question is where could I find the documents that explain how to use this blocks to connect to aws iot core, instead of downloading the certificates from amazon console.

ajb2k3

Look me up on Amazon (Adam Bryant), I have a crappy getting started book about AWS and UIFlow

gabrielgc75

@ajb2k3 Thank you, I found your book at amazon store, but in the description it doesn't say anything regarding how to use the ATECC608B with UiFlow. I have done examples subscribing my edukit to aws iot core, but I have downloaded the certificates directly from AWS, the question is how to use ATECC608B with uiflow. Do you have a book that I could buy with this topic?
Regards

ajb2k3

Ah no, I'm actually working on adding that to V2 of the book at the moment following your request.

gabrielgc75

@ajb2k3 Great! Thank you!, please let me know when it is done.

Just a little update but no matter what I try, as soon as I try to access the I2C bus with the ATECC608, I get a kernel panic and restart.

Hello guys

I did some tests with the AWS bottom:

When I stack the AWS bottom to an M5Core2 (using @gabrielgc75 trick with the ID unit and custom pins 21/22) I get a crash - something about I2C master not being initialized.
However when I stack the AWS bottom to an M5Stack Basic (again using an ID unit but this time with default Port A) it works and I can access the ATECC608.

Thanks
Felix

@ajb2k3 It's super buggy. I tried getting this ATECC608 chip working with Arduino code and had very inconsistent results, kernel panics and crashes. The only way I've seen it run consistently is by running the RTOS code in the AWS edukit tutorials.

ajb2k3

@felmue @greenleaf I've reached out to M5Stack to see if they have a solution.

ajb2k3

Interesting, It seams that the I2C master bus is not being initialised.

OK getting somewhere, every time you get a guru or kernel panic you need to hard shut down the core two for 5 seconds or the bug remains in memory.

ajb2k3

And there is the Issue:
0_1659771847735_Screenshot 2022-08-06 at 08.43.41.png

The code is not getting run in the correct order!

1 Set forward.

ajb2k3

1 Step Forward!

from m5stack_ui import *
from uiflow import *
import i2c_bus
import machine
i2c = machine.I2C(scl=machine.Pin(22), sda=machine.Pin(21), freq=133000)

screen = M5Screen()
screen.clean_screen()
screen.set_screen_bg_color(0xFFFFFF)

label0 = M5Label('label0', x=15, y=43, color=0x000, font=FONT_MONT_14, parent=None)

print('Scan i2c bus...')
addresses = i2c.scan()
print(i2c.scan())
label0.set_text(str(i2c.scan()))

So the code get run out of order and crashes the i2c bus.

felmue

Hello @ajb2k3

are you doing multiple i2c.scan() calls on purpose? When I try that I only get an empty list. However doing only one scan works for me.

I went through older M5Core2 UIFlow firmware versions and all of them crash on me when using the ID unit with custom values for I2C (e.g. 21, 22) in order to access the ATECC608 in the AWS bottom. And UIFlow firmware 1.7.5 doesn't support the ID unit.

BTW: The ATECC608B has a sleep mode and when it is in that mode it will not show up during an I2C scan.

Thanks
Felix

ajb2k3

@felmue I'm doing multi scans because I'm not sure how do make one and pass the results to both the Label and print functions.

Yeh found out about the sleep mode, you have to hard reset the base plate to wake it up before running an i2C scan.
I'm running 1.10.2 and found the issue is in the i2C setup function.

addresses = i2c.scan()
Is just a left over function of what I was testing earlier.

ajb2k3

And more progress!
I have stable access to the Core2 AWS' ATECC608b
