*Dear CASPER Community,*
I am following up on my previous message with an update on my progress with the *RFSoC ZCU216*. I have successfully set up the development environment, compiled a baseline spectrometer design, and verified the real-time output waveforms on the hardware. Now that the basic spectrometer functionality is working and verified, I am looking to advance this design into a full *Spectropolarimeter*. Could anyone provide guidance or point me toward standard practices within the CASPER toolflow for: 1. Implementing the cross-multiplication/polarimetric logic (computing Stokes parameters) efficiently on this platform? 2. Integrating multiple ADC channels simultaneously to handle the multi-polarization inputs required for a polarimeter setup? Any advice, reference designs, or relevant documentation to help me bridge the gap between a standard spectrometer and a spectropolarimeter would be highly appreciated.
