Which Vivado project base is to be used for custom filters on the FPGA? #107
Comments
Current development is done on the The
For now 16k-sample buffers are used, DMA access to main memory will take some time to code properly. There are Jupyter applications for generator and oscilloscope, they are not fully tested, since their main purpose is testing HW and the API (written entirely in Python for now). Regarding ADC/DAC interfaces. If you have a look at the
Both use the AXI4-Stream protocol. For he ADC the TVALID signal is active all the time for DAC the TREADY signal is active all the time. For now there will be not much more then the code itself as documentation. Later we plan to write demo projects, where this streaming interfaces will be available in the Vivado block design editor, and it will be possible to connect them directly to other Xilinx streaming IP.

Thanks for your fast response! Why I asked is because we are doing our bachelor thesis with your FPGA board and thus are depending on it. Since we are reliant on your provided software framework & FPGA framework I was kinda shocked to find that few resources to a Project that was launched 2013, partly because I expected to have a kinda big userbase doing FPGA stuff. But all I really found was a Tutorial on how to get an LED to blink and some brief description of the Verilog components. Maybe I am just not good enough at Google ;) I have no troubles reading through the sources, even tho I am not savy of Verilog, but using it analogous to VHDL I am sure I will be able to understand enough. As a head start it would be nice if I knew HOW unstable the mercury branch is and or it's even worth planning for the old code. We are going to need the ADC in the first place, including it's Triggering logic. So my specific question here is: is that part of the code stable and/or can we use it? I have no troubles implementing part of the needed functionality myself but since you have a framework for closed hardware I am kinda hesitant and I would be very glad if you could give me some pointers. Also on the 16kS part: I guess I could easily upsize the buffer right? I guess I wouldn't even have to fiddle with the device tree but rather just some constants in the Verilog code? Using Jupyter is a great pleasure, even tho I will implement a Scope App using ES6, WebGL and WebAudio in the end. So I will be looking forward to use your Jupyter Demos & Tests! Kind regards from Switzerland |
Hi!
As the title states, I am unsure with what project base I should start.
There is quite a palette of different choices:
http://redpitaya.readthedocs.io/en/latest/fpga/fpga.html#fpga-sub-projects
But the statements made here:
#88
Say that the buffer is quite small. I mean 16kS is NOTHING.
With what project should I start?
Also is there a better explanation somewhere on how to interface ADC/DAC code other than the source files and the really short explanations in the wiki?
Best regards
Yatekii
