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

Hi Dan, I cut the number of frequency channels from 2k to 512 this afternoon. When I left the lab the design was still compiling so I won’t know how it fared until morning. I forgot to grab the resource utilization to post here. What’s the best way to get the utilization report anyway?

Hi all, I have implemented a 4 channel 200MHz correlating spectrometer on a ROACH 1 using the Virtex5 SX95T. Currently, I am trying to get this same design to compile and run on a LX110T chip instead. I know that the SX95T is much more DSP intensive and more suitable for this sort of

hi louis, are you running out of memory? dsp48's? slices? if memory, the easiest thing to do is cut back on number of frequency channels. best, dan On Mon, Oct 27, 2014 at 4:59 PM, Louis Dartez louisdar...@gmail.com wrote: Hi all, I have implemented a 4 channel 200MHz correlating

Hi Dan, Slices is what seems to be problem from the error report (which I can send around tomorrow morning when I’m back in the lab). I seem to remember that that the compiler raised an error stating that I was trying to ~80k slices when only ~60k are available. I knew this would be a

Hi louis, I've just checked the spec sheet - 64 multipliers!! I'm guessing you ran out of slices when you (or maybe the compiler) pushed lots of multipliers into logic? (the lx has more slices than the sx) Maybe send around your utilisation summary tomorrow - it sounds like you might need to find
