Nov 1, 2025November 2025 monthly summary for D-Robotics/rdk_doc focusing on X5 Documentation Enhancements and PWM updates. Implemented clear documentation that X5 boards do not support character terminal login mode and expanded PWM documentation to cover PWM0–PWM2 with configurable options. Corrected PWM frequency range and adjusted duty-cycle/period limits to reflect hardware capabilities. All changes linked to RDK-966, RDK-1020, and RDK-1054 to ensure traceability and validation.

Oct 1, 2025Monthly Summary – 2025-10 Key features delivered: - Serial baud rate configuration documentation: Clarified that baud rate is configured in /boot/boot.cmd during kernel boot and provided steps to regenerate boot.scr after modifications to ensure accurate serial communication setup. (Linked commits: e4d147429cda915f358d8ca8d5c09528975252fd; RDK-891) - X5 CPU overclocking limitations documentation: Documented which X5 variants support overclocking and warned about risks and stability issues to inform proper procedures before attempting overclocking. (Linked commits: 9e47d5482d00d09eb04d4146f7ac517b8091bc0a; RDK-931) Major bugs fixed: - No major code-level bugs fixed this month; primary focus was documentation updates to correct and clarify hardware configuration steps (RDK-891). These changes reduce misconfigurations and support time. Overall impact and accomplishments: - Improved hardware configuration reliability and faster onboarding for developers and customers by providing precise boot-time and overclocking guidance. - Strengthened risk management and change traceability through documentation linked to RDK-891 and RDK-931. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - Firmware boot process understanding (kernel boot, boot.cmd, boot.scr), technical writing quality, risk communication for hardware features, version control discipline with issue-linked commits.
