The laser driver contains the axi_pulse_gen's IP and an additional
register map which controls/monitor the laser driver enable control line
and the over temperature warning line (OTW).
It also contains an interrupt logic, which allows to generate an
interrupt in function of the generated pulse or incoming OTW signal.
The IPs register maps looks as follow:
0x00 - axi_pulse_gen register map
0x80 - axi_laser_driver register map
0x80 - DRIVER_ENABLE
0x84 - DRIVER_OTW
0x88 - EXT_CLK_COUNTER
0xA0 - IRQ_MASK
0xA4 - IRQ_SOURCE
0xA8 - IRQ_PENDING
0xAC - SEQUENCER_CONTROL
0 - SEQUENCER_ENABLE
1 - AUTO_SEQUENCER_ENABLED
0xB0 - SEQUENCER_SYNC_OFFSET
0xB4 - AUTO_SEQUENCE
[ 1: 0] - CHANNEL_SEL_0
[ 5: 4] - CHANNEL_SEL_1
[ 9: 8] - CHANNEL_SEL_2
[13:12] - CHANNEL_SEL_3
0xB8 - MANUAL_SEQUENCE
[ 1: 0] - MANUAL_CHANNEL_SEL
Current interrupt sources scheme is:
- bit 0 : pulse (triggered by the level of the pulse)
- bit 1 : OTW_N enter (triggered by positive edge of the OTW_N)
- bit 2 : OTW_N exit (triggered by the level of the pulse)
Generate a reset signal before the pulse which can be used to reset
various IP's of the data path (eg. pack/cpack). This can help to clear out the
internal buffers and registers of these IP, starting clean at the moment when
the actual pulse arrives.
The sequencer has an auto and a manual mode, and can be set to custom
sequences of the TIA channel selection lines sate.
The sequencer in auto mode is synchronized to the pulse, it will change
its state before a generated pulse which will drive the lasers. The
offset between the sequencer beat and the laser driver pulse can be
modified through an AXI register.
- add missing false paths
- change the bus skew constraint to a false path, for some reason the
tool does not change the path's requirement after a set_bus_skew
constraint
Our internal repository was changed from phdl to ghdl. Update the
adi_env.tcl scripts and other scripts, which depends on the $ad_ghdl_dir
variable. This way the tools will see all the internal IPs too.
Add additional synchronization FIFOs to several interfaces of the
axi_spi_engine module, to prevent metastability and timing issues in
case when the system clock and the SPI clock are asynchronous.
There are devices where the SDO default state, between transactions, is
not GND, rather VCC.
Define a parameter, which can be used to set the default state of the
SDO line.
Move the subtraction outside of the always block. In this way we're not adding
an additional delay element on to the output of the differentiator,
which brakes the transfer function of the filter.
This patch will fix the following warning:
[Synth 8-689] width (16) of port connection 'up_axi_awaddr'
does not match port width (12) of module 'up_axi'
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.
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.
Let the measured transfer length to be cleared at the end of each
transfer, other case in cyclic mode the counter will overflow and will
not present any useful information.
Once xfer_request is set the DMA must accept samples in the same clock
cycle if the fifo_wr_en signal is asserted.
If the req_valid asserts faster than the ID gets synchronized over the
the xfer request asserts without being ready to accept data.
This can lead to overflow assertion when using a FIFO like interface.
This patch addresses the following issue:
In case of transfers with multiple segments, if TLAST asserts on the last
beat of a non-last segment while more descriptors are queued up,
the completions for the queued segments may be missed causing timeout in
processes that wait for transfer completions.
This patch addresses the following issue:
In 2D mode when consecutive partial transfers occur, and the latter is
very short, will interfere with the completion mechanism of the first
transfer leading to uncompleted segments and unreported partial
transfers.
The tb_base.v verilog files does not contain a full module definition,
just some plain test code. In general the files is sourced inside the
test bench main module. As is, defining a timescale in these files will
generate an error, because timescale directive can not be inside a
module.
Delete all the timescale directive from these files.
When only one converter is used there is no need for concatenation and
slicer cores. In that case the TPL will connect to port 0 from the
application layer.
These parameters must be overwritten when the link is at 15Gbps.
The parameters have a GTY4_ prefix since the same parameters are shared
between GTY4 and GTH4 having different default values.
The interrupt controller from Microblaze based projects requires that
all its inputs have attributes which define the sensitivity of the
interrupt line. Other case it defaults to EDGE_RISING which is not the
case for DMAC, leading to incorrect interrupt reporting and handling in
case of such projects.
Out of Context constraints are needed for timing driven synthesis as for
avoiding critical warnings due clock queries.
The memory from the FIFO is inferred in different ways for high clock
speeds. Assume the highest frequency for all projects.
Fix library makefiles dep list using generic vendor info reg
Combine adi_int_bd_tcl with adi_auto_fill_bd_tcl procedure.
This change will simplify the process of generating makefiles for each library.
Removing the bd.tcl script from the adi_ip_files list will remove it from the
make dependency list.
Having a bd.tcl script in every IP is redundant.
adi_ip.tcl:
- add adi_init_bd_tcl - creates a blanch bd.tcl and a
parameters temporary_case_dependencies.mk when compiling an IP.
Its main purpose is to generate the bd.tcl, which will be included in
the IP's file-set.
- adi_auto_fill_bd_tcl will populate the empty bd.tcl based on the
top IP parameters and the presence of these parameters in
auto_set_param_list and auto_set_param_list_overwritable lists.
This task can not be performed by the first described procedure since
the file-set is not yet defined.
adi_xilinx_device_info_enc.tcl:
Split auto_set_param_list_overwritable from auto_set_param_list. As
the name states, some of the parameters are overwritable, this will help
when generating the bd.tcl script.
library.mk:
Include the temporary_case_dependencies.mk if it exists in the
IP root folder. The mentioned *.mk file contains non generic
dependencies for makefiles like targets to clean.
Common basic steps:
- Include/create infrastructure:
* Intel:
- require quartus::device package
- set_module_property VALIDATION_CALLBACK info_param_validate
* Xilinx
- add bd.tcl, containing init{} procedure. The init procedure will be
called when the IP will be instantiated into the block design.
- add to the xilinx_blockdiagram file group the bd.tcl and common_bd.tcl
- create GUI files
- add parameters in *_ip.tcl and *_hw.tcl (adi_add_auto_fpga_spec_params)
- add/propagate the info parameters through the IP verilog files

Xilinx:
When calling adi_auto_fpga_spec_params in the x_ip.tcl, parameters like
- FPGA_TECHNOLOGY
- FPGA_FAMILY
- SPEED_GRADE
- DEV_PACKAGE
- XCVR_TYPE
- FPGA_VOLTAGE
will be automatically detected and constrained to predefined pairs of values
from adi_xilinx_device_info_env.tcl
The parameters specified in the blobk diagram of the IP(bd.tcl), will be
automatically assign when the IP is added to a block design.
The "adi_auto_assign_device_spec $cellpath" is called in the init
hook (bd.tcl).

Intel:
Info parameters are set in the VALIDATION_CALLBACK according to
adi_intel_device_info_env.tcl
Fix the following warning:
WARNING: [Synth 8-2611] redeclaration of ANSI port up_es_reset is not allowed
Also make sure, that in all configurations, the register has a diver.
Add support for 8 bit resolution for the transport layer.
Fix parameter BITS_PER_SAMPLES propagation to all the internal modules, in
several cases this variable was hard coded to 16.
The axi_pulse_gen is a generic PWM generator, which can be configured
through an AXI Memory Mapped interface.
The current register map look like follows:
0x00 - VERSION
0x04 - ID
0x08 - SCRATCH
0x0C - IDENTIFICATION - 0x504c5347 which stands for 'PLSG' in ASCII
0x10 - CONFIGURATION - contains reset and load bits
0x14 - PULSE_PERIOD
0x18 - PULSE_WIDTH
Also update all the other modules, which instantiate the util_pulse_gen.
To prevent the case, when after an invalid configuration, the generated
output PWM signal is constant HIGH, change the counter to a
down-counter. In this way the pulse will be placed at the end of the
PWM period, and if the configured width value is higher than the
configured period the output signal will be constant LOW.
Write code to pipeline data path for better DSP utilization on the
color space conversion.
In the old method the addition operations were performed outside the
DSPs
The FIFO functions in 'first fall through' mode, adjust the fifo level
generation so it take into account the valid data which sits on the bus,
waiting for ready, too.
