Purpose
MokoForesight is an independent hardware lab inside Openmoko to scout, analyze, and write proof-of-concept drivers for new open source chips/modules. It will accept tasks from Openmoko product teams or from the community, and maintain its own priorities.
People
- Matt Hsu (Software)
- Shawn Lin (Hardware)
Gear
- R&S CMU 200 x 3
- R&S Audio Analyzer
- R&S Vector Signal Generator SMU200A
- R&S FSP Spectrum Analyzer
- Tektronix TDS 7254 Digital Phosphor Oscilloscope
- Anechoic Test Chamber
- Agilent E5071B Network Analyzer
- Agilent E4440A Spectrum Analyzer
- HP 16702A Logic Analysis System
Current Tasks
- U-boot porting to GTA03EVB (Matt) ONGOING
- The core can run at 533 MHz with 133MHz SDRAM (Done Aug.12.2008)
- SIMCOM 3G MODEM Research (Shawn) ONHOLD
- GTA03EVB Hardware Verification (Matt & Shawn) ONGOING
- Starts when GTA03EVB is in office (AUG.11.2008)
- voltage, power consumption, RF characteristics (finished by end of AUG.22.2008)
- Siemens MC 75i EDGE MODEM
- u-blox 5 Antaris GPS (Done Aug.12.2008)

---|---|---|---|---|
SIMCOM5210 | All docs can be opened under the letter of authorization Aug 8.13 | Teenie says it's OK. | Good (Shawn Aug.7.2008) | [1] |
WiFi and BT Combo Module (AR6002+BC6) | Not Checked | Not Checked | Good (Shawn Aug.7.2008) | [2]WIFI[3]Bluetooth |
Wavecom WMP100 | AT docs open, ability to program new AT commands for everyone with a "free"(ly available) SDK. | Order quantity? | Component is fine, but only supports Class10 GPRS unfortunately (Shawn Aug.11.2008) | No idea, see wavecom.com (sort of) |
Wavecom Q26 Ultra | same as wmp100 | Order quantity? | GPRS cl10, EDGE cl10, WCDMA, but thick (40x32x6.55mm) | No idea, see wavecom's website |
UC864 (3.5G modem) | Detailed documentation on Web. Can get even for more documentation from reseller. | Any Qty is good. Price depends strongly on the qty. | First impression is good. UC864G includes all known bands and GPS receiver (saves more space & complications) | UMTS/HSDPA |
