Hi Louis, You can grab the report from the terminal, but it's also at the top of the map report file, at compile-directory/XPS_ROACH_base/implementation/system_map.mrp Cheers, Jack On 29 October 2014 03:31, Louis Dartez louisdar...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Dan, I cut the number of frequency

Hi Jack, Dan, et al, I’ve linked to two .mrp files in this message. The first is here https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwvomAqfDQ2DNFZJOEZnS2NUZHd0QV9GamN4S3F6dkl6MXpj/view?usp=sharing and contains the utilization report for the spectrometer logic on a SX95T chip. The second, this one

Hey guys, The CASPER community has been a great help to me in the past few years. People have asked for my libraries and due to JPL policy, I've always had to turn them away. Thanks to help from Bob Jarnot, Jonathon Kocz and others, I'm now free to open-source some of my designs/libraries. For

Hey Ryan, This sounds great. I've just got a 312mhz design for a project in Cambridge to meet timing (broadly similar to what you're describing, but 10 single pol antennas and only 4k channels over 5ghz bw). Whilst I don't have any particular requests, I would be very interested in hearing about

Hi Ryan, That does look cool! You don’t mention which ADC you plan to use. Is it this one? https://casper.berkeley.edu/wiki/ADC1x5000-8 Just to mention in case it proves useful that our group at Submillimeter Array (SMA) and Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) has been working on a correlator /

Hi Ryan, Thanks for the response. To answer your question we use 2^15 = 32 k FFTs operating on 8 bit real time samples, to channelize our visibility spectrum to 2^14 = 16k complex points. There is a pair of these 2^15 point PFBs on each Virtex 6, one for each 5 Gsps ADC input. We’d
