FYI, the Zotino and Novogorny DAC/ADC EEMs are now funded (Oxford/Freiburg) and
being designed by WUT. They should be ready in ~12weeks. We're planning to
contract M-Labs to provide full support for them.

FYI, the Zotino and Novogorny DAC/ADC EEMs are
HDCI carrier as a short-term solution.

Sébastien,
Given the relatively low cost of the Artix-7 FPGAs, my preference is generally
to go as big and as fast as reasonably possible. I don't want to find that, for
example, we can't fit a hard FPU/fancy servo on Kasli because we saved $50 on
the FPGA. Also, since gateware development is u

Dear all,
The first artiq hardware is now available to buy!
You can now buy the following boards (fully populated and tested, complete with
aluminium front panels):
VHDCI_carrier
BNC_DIO
SMA_DIO
RJ45_DIO
See https://github.com/m-labs/sinara/wiki for more info about these boards.
Note that all
Joe,
I'm still waiting for my Sayma to arrive back from Poland. I'll have a look at
this asap once it arrives, so long as that I'm not blocked by other issues like
ser-wb failures.

Assuming you mean "supporting" in the sense of which bitstreams M-Labs will
build and test, I'm fine with that.

It would be good to get the interpolation running, both to improve spectral
purity and to put the hardware through its paces before we move on to the next
design revision (I'd love to see synchro

Good to know, thanks.

Thanks for clarifying that.

Remind me, for the current design, what's a 1 LSB spur in dBc? How does that
