Hi,?We have two B210 usrp board but i can't connect to the FPGA via jtag
connector in any other board.Is there any setting that must be perform before
using jtag?
Thanks?

It should work with JTAG fine straight from the factory. What are you trying to
do, and what is the exact issue you see?

Message-ID:

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"
Hello,I am trying to read a binary file saved in file_sink in Gnu_radio, using
C.I have tried using 32bit int variable as 1st 32 bit is in-phase and the next
32 bit is quad-phase for a complex number and repeat until eof. However, it
didn't give me good resutls.
Can anybody tell me how the GNU radio stores complex numbers in the bin file
and how they are read using C?Any help is greately appriciated!Thanks and
regards,Awantha

Subject: [USRP-users] Using Xilinx CORDIC 4.0 on USRP N210 FPGA
Message-ID:
<[email protected]>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
On the N210 FPGA, I'm passing the baseband samples through a Xilinx FFT IP core
and am looking to take the magnitude of that output. I've found the CORDIC 4.0
core. This core requires the input samples to be between the range of -1 and 1
with 2 bits for the integer portion of the fixed point samples. I was wondering
if anyone has had any experience with this and if so what a recommended scale
back factor is OR if there is another way to capture the magnitude of the FFT
without using the CORDIC core.

Hi Awantha,
in principle, you're right. GNU Radio stores away the complex numbers
just as they are in memory -- 32bit real, 32bit imag, 32bit real ...
Maybe you've got the data type wrong. What is the type of your file
sink? Most things in GNU Radio work with 32bit float complex, not 32bit
integer complex.
Best regards,
Marcus

Subject: [USRP-users] USRP N210 DDC Sample Data Format
Message-ID:
<[email protected]>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Hi,
I've been assuming the data format of the sample out from the DDC on the N210
FPGA is an integer 16Bit Complex (sc16, I(16bits), Q(16bits)). Is this correct?
What does setting the cpu_format and wire_format (fc64, fc32, sc16, sc8) in
the Host UHD driver do if anything to this? Does it change the format in the
packet router or VITA RX Chain?
Respectfully,
Patrick DaSilva

The CPU format is entirely on the host side--the USRP knows nothing
about it.
The wire format changes "stuff" in the FPGA just before (as I recall)
its injected into the VITA framing.

Has anyone done any benchmarking pulling data off the E310 in network
mode? I can only get about 4 Mbps (1 MSps 16bit complex) off the device
without dropping data and getting overflows. On the E310 itself, the
usrp_e3x0_network_mode process pegs the cpu pretty quickly with sample
rates of 2 MSps and above.
Any plans to optimize this? I'd like to use the E310 in a similar fashion
as the N210 and saturate the NIC bandwidth at around 25 MSps.
Thanks.
Jason

Good luck with that ...
Pure synthetic benchmark of the zynq show barely 500 Msps (ethernet
used from linux, 1496 bytes packets).
And that's with it dedicating the entirety of the CPU just to send
fake data in a loop.
Cheers,
Sylvain

of course I meant 500 Mbps ...

Hi Jason,
that already is pretty optimized. The architecture of the network
interface on the E310 doesn't allow for higher rates, really.
Network mode is a diagnostic tool; a lot of work has gone into getting
it to work at these rates.
Best regards,
Marcus
