Dear katADC users,I am trying to synthesize a simple design using the katadc block (see screen capture in the attachments). This is my tool set in a Windows XP machine: ISE 10.1, SysGen v.10.1.1134, MATLAB R2007b, v7.5.0.342, latest CASPER libs (today's git clone http://casper.berkeley.edu/git/mlib_devel.git).
I am getting an exception in xst for iic_adc0: ...EXCEPTION:Xdm:FileReader.c:428:$Id: FileReader.c,v 1.36 2004/09/15 20:29:16 jdl Exp $ - Xdm_Exception::UnsupportedFileFormatVersion The Xdm_Model File Format version 'V1.5e' is not supported.
...The explanation of this issue is available in the Xilinx answers database AR#33915 (http://www.xilinx.com/support/answers/33915.htm). This problem is caused for version incompatibility of the software that generates some netlist of the CASPER libs and my toolset version.
I tried to find all the "iic" things related to katadc in the libs, and generate the netlist using my Xilinx core generator. I started with kat_iic_controller_v1_00_a, I generated the {op,rx}_fifo modules, and I am getting the same exception error from xst.
Then I moved to kat_adc_iic_controller_v1_00_a with not success. Apparently the coregen project uses the FIFO generator v5.3, the latest version that I have is v.4.3.
So, my questions are: - Am I seeing the problem in the right way?- Can I generate the netlists of {fab,cpu}_op_fifo and rx_fifo using v4.3 and synthesize the design? If so, can I use the same parameters of the XCO files? - Do I have to migrate to ISE/SysGen ver. > 11.x? (I planning to do this in the future...)
Thanks! -- Luis Quintero, Arecibo Observatory
