Vivado propagates and auto derives the clocks, however if multiple
instances of this components are used the names of the propagated clock
change while the constraint file has fixed name which will match only
the clocks from the first instance letting the second instance of the
clock div without exception.
Use missing MIMO_ENABLE parameter, which will insert
and additional de-skew logic to prevent timing issues coming from
the clock skew differences of two or multiple AD9361.
Observation and RX should never run at the same time.
Given that there is no FIFO on the RX and OBS paths, they will use the higheste performance HP ports, which are HP1 and HP2
For all the Xilinx base design, define three global clock nets, which
are saved in the following three global variable: $sys_cpu_clk, $sys_dma_clk
and $sys_iodelay_clk.
These clock nets are connected to different clock sources depending of
the FPGA architecture used on the carrier. In general the following
frequencies are used:
- sys_cpu_clk - 100MHz
- sys_dma_clk - 200MHz or 250Mhz
- sys_iodelay_clk - 200MHz or 500Mhz
Define a MIMO_ENABLE parameter for the core, which will insert
and additional de-skew logic to prevent timing issues coming from
the clock skew differences of two or multiple AD9361.
Add support for the Arria 10 SoC development kit to the dac_fmc_ebz
project.
This allows to use the following FMC boards on the Arria 10 SoC development
Kit carrier:
* AD9135-FMC-EBZ
* AD9136-FMC-EBZ
* AD9144-FMC-EBZ
* AD9152-FMC-EBZ
* AD9154-FMC-EBZ
* AD9171-FMC-EBZ
* AD9172-FMC-EBZ
* AD9173-FMC-EBZ
Note that the board in its default configuration is not fully compatible with the
mentioned FMC boards and some slight re-work moving some 0 Ohm resistors is
required. The rework concerns the LA01 and LA05 pins, which by default are
not connected to the FPGA. The changes required are:
LA01_P_CC
R612: R0 -> DNI
R610: DNI -> R0
LA01_N_CC
R613: R0 -> DNI
R611: DNI -> R0
LA05_P
R621: R0 -> DNI
R620: DNI -> R0
LA05_N
R633: R0 -> DNI
R632: DNI -> R0
The main differences between AD9144-FMC-EBZ and AD9172-FMC-EBZ are:
* The DAC txen signals are connected to different pins
* The polarity of the spi_en signal is active low instead of active high
* The maximum lane rate is up to 15.4 Gpbs
To accommodate this all 4 possible txen signals as well as the spi_en
signal are connected to GPIOs. Software can decide how to use them
depending on which FMC board is connected.
Note that each carrier has a maximum supported lane rate. Modes of the
AD9172 (and similar) that exceed the carrier specific limit can not be used
on that carrier. The limits are as following:
* A10SoC: 14.2 Gbps
Add a generic project for the AD91xx-FMC-EBZ DAC boards connected to the
ZCU102 and ZC706 carrier boards.
The project is called dac_fmc_ebz as the intention is to support all DAC
FMC evaluation boards with this project since they are sufficiently similar
to be supported by the same design.
This project will successively extended to add support for more boards.
The desired DAC device and JESD operation mode must be selected from the following
file:
./common/config.tcl
This design can support the following FMC boards which are all pin
compatible:
* AD9135-FMC-EBZ
* AD9136-FMC-EBZ
* AD9144-FMC-EBZ
* AD9152-FMC-EBZ
* AD9154-FMC-EBZ
* AD916x-FMC-EBZ
* AD9171-FMC-EBZ
* AD9172-FMC-EBZ
* AD9173-FMC-EBZ
Note that the AD9152-FMC-EBZ only uses the first 4 lanes, whereas all other
boards use 8 lanes.
This project assumes that the transceiver reference clock and SYSREF are
provided via the clock distribution chip that is found on the
ADxxxx-FMC-EBZ board.
In terms of pin connections between the FPGA and the FMC board the
AD9172-FMC-EBZ is very similar to the AD9144-FMC-EBZ.
The main differences are:
* The DAC txen signals are connected to different pins
* The polarity of the spi_en signal is active low instead of active high
* The maximum lane rate is up to 15.4 Gpbs
To accommodate this 5 txctrl signals as well as the spi_en signal are connected
to GPIOs. Software can decide how to use them depending on which FMC board
is connected.
Note that each carrier has a maximum supported lane rate. Modes of the
AD9172 (and similar) that exceed the carrier specific limit can not be used
on that carrier. The limits are as following:
* ZC706: 10.3125 Gbps
* ZCU102: 15.4 Gbps (max AD9172 lanerate)
* SPI and GPIOs to PMOD header support
Connect a SPI interface and some GPIOs to the PL PMOD headers on the zcu102
and zc706 carriers.
This is can be used to control additional external hardware like a clock
chip or an analog front-end.
This is especially useful on FMC boards that do not feature a clock
generator chip.
The pin out is:
PMOD 1: SPI clock
PMOD 2: SPI chipselect
PMOD 3: SPI MOSI
PMOD 4: SPI MISO
PMOD 7: GPIO 0
PMOD 8: GPIO 1
PMOD 9: GPIO 2
PMOD 10: GPIO 3
The GPIOs are mapped at offset 48-51 of the EMIO GPIOs.
Add a clock crossing bridge for the interfaces that runs on a different
clock than the emif_user_clk.
This way we can simplify the main interconnect, and prevent occasional
timing violations.
