The reason is when to insert a object, it needs you entering the characters which I don't know. If I know it, I don't have to use the Microsoft Equation. I think the pair is in some font which I need to know. WengArticle: 143476
Prashant, I suggest first you learn how to insert Chipscope using ISE. Then, once you have mastered that, you may then "graduate" to inserting Chipscope using EDK (XPS). Chipscope provides the ability to monitor internal (specified) signals, and as such, is a very hardware-centric debug tool. EDK is a software-centric platform, so it is a bit like asking the programmer to use the logic analyzer (usually the programmer has no clue how to do this -- "not my job."). Which version are you using? There are some small differences between 9.x, 10.x, and the new 11.x. In general, if this is a new project, I always suggest using the latest tools. But, if this is a student project, you are probably told which tools to use. There are a number of helpful links online, the UC Berkeley EECS 150 lab is just one of many.Article: 143477

It looks like IP2Bus_Data is declared 0 to N rather than N downto 0.
This is the signal that goes to the mBlaze, right? How does uBlaze
declare this? Have you checked this in simulation? You should be
able to see what is happening there. But like I said, I believe you
are doing this wrong. You are putting the sign bit in the middle of
the 32 bit word. Is that what you intended? Is uBlaze reading just a
16 bit quanity or do you need to sign extend the value?
What values *are* being seen in the terminal display? Are they all
positive? Do you see *any* negative numbers from this data path?
I also suggest strongly that you replace
use ieee.std_logic_arith.all;
use ieee.std_logic_unsigned.all;
with
use ieee.numeric_std.all;
The conversion functions have different names, but they are easy to
remember. to_integer() works for the types defined in numeric_std
(signed and unsigned). to_signed() and to_unsigned() work for
integer. To convert between integer and SLV you need to use
to_integer, to_signed or to_unsigned to convert between integer and
either signed or unsigned, then you can use "implicit type conversion"
to convert between signed/unsigned and SLV. e.g. std_logic_vector
(signed_signal)
under numeric_std signed, unsigned and SLV are "closely related types"
which do not need a function for conversion. They will be converted
just by connecting the corresponding "wires" (elements of the array)
between the two types. Since closely related types use the same
element types, this is defined without requiring any "conversion"
between them.
The reason that you can't convert directly between integer and SLV is
because that would require a specification of the format somehow. By
converting to unsigned or signed in the middle, the format is
specified clearly.

Article: 143479The last device to have a "inrush" current was the Virtex E, Since then, the parts have no "excess" current requirements. Now, the poster may have a design which is using more power than he is able to supply with his power supply design, so by forcing the part to NOT configure (change mode pins, ground the DIN pin, etc.) they will be able to see if the power supplies can power the part when there is no bitstream. While the part waits for a bitstream, the power is virtually identical to what the power is while loading the bitstream, and what the power is immediately after the bitstream is loaded, before the part starts doing whatever it is that the customer has told it to do.Article: 143480

Can you explain what you mean by this? What does the symbol look like? When I use the Equation editor, I don't need to know *any* characters. It gives a toolbar that has various groups of known math symbols such as a greek epsilon for summation or a pi for products. It also has symbols for set theory which is where I find the term "greatest lower bound" used. That symbol is what I was taught was called "cap" and looks like an upside down U. Is that the symbol you are looking for? RickArticle: 143482

The function drops all data after the decimal point. The character is a 'L' in left side and a mirror image of 'L' along Y aixis is in the right side. Thank you. WengArticle: 143483

If that soft-cpu pushes you UP one FPGA size, it can become expensive quickly. The Vendors, of course, like to avoid mentioning such step-effects, as they WANT to sell you bigger FPGAs !! Then, there is the 'stone soup' aspect of soft-cpu, - the core may be 'free', but you have to get code into it somehow, and now that code memory is not free.... -jgArticle: 143484
Hello all,
I have an ASIC design to be converted to FPGA, I'm using Spartan-3A.
The ASIC uses 60MHz input clock, and divides it to 3 20MHz clocks
inside, the duty cycle is not 1:1 and has phase shifting like below:
|<- 50ns ->|
___ ___ ___
__/ \___.___/ \___.___/ \___.___.
. . . . . . . . . .
_ _ _
_.___._/ \___.___._/ \___.___._/ \___.
. . . . . . . . . .
_ _ _
_.___.___/ \_.___.___/ \_.___.___/ \_.
. . . . . . . . . .
These 3 clocks are the main clocks in the design, so I want to get
them from DCM, but found I can't set duty cycles in DCM.
Now I use logic to divide the clocks and add BUFG after them, but the
skew before BUFG can't be managed.
Is there anyone has a better idea?

As you mentioned above, IP2Bus_Data should be declare N downto 0
rather than 0 to N.....I tried this but got the error message
IP2Bus_Data type can not be declared as DOWNTO .......i didn't have
any simulation for this till now and i just check the received number
in hyperterminal.....
This time i hav used 32 bit instead of 16 bit format(i.e.IP2Bus_Data(0
to 31)<=3Dconv_std_logic_vector(cnt,32)) .........

I tried lots of data types and the conversion function but didn't
get the result what i want......
So iam going to put my problem straight forward to you.......your any
idea will be gr8ly appreciated....
Problem:
1. i need to count the pulses from quadrature encoder , value of count
can be +ve as well as -ve depending upon direction of rotation of
encoder...
2.This value is to be send to uBlaze....
3.I have a code for counting the encoder pulses that is included in
the "user_logic"....
4.I have used "user software register" method of transferring data
from my custom IP to uBlaze..
5.In phase of transferring the value of count from IP to uBlaze, the
value of count must be mapped to IP2Bus_Data in SLV format data
type....
6.Here i had defined "count " that counts value of pulses as integer
and it should be converted SLV while transferring...
7.But this method didn't work as i expected while receiving data in
uBlaze.....
So...Plz suggest me in....
what should be the data type of "count" that support +ve as well -ve
numbers and supports operation count<=3Dcount+1/-1
??
and how -ve values of count are represented in SLV format??

The easiest (IMHO!) is to use the Debug..Debug Configuration menu in XPS - Click the Add Chipscope peripheral button. That walks you through the process to a large extent. Just add an IBA (bus analyser). If you just want to monitor bus transations, it's all done for you in terms of the wiring, and a sensible trigger setup. It also handles wiring up the ICON (the controller) to the IBA (the logic analyser itself - you can have multiple of these). Doing arbitrary signals is also possible via the same route. Make sure the trigger out goes to the debug halt if you want to halt the processor when chipscope triggers.

If you can fit a sledgehammer (sorry, microblaze :) in, why not use it? What is it you're trying to do - just wiggle some port pins, or something more complex? If it's slow pin/signal wiggling, and alternative might be to use Chipscope's VIO block - it's not CLI, but I gather it has some tcl libraries which you could build something with...

I need to read/write a dozen 32 bit registers. However I ultimately want a processor at the outermost control loop.

Hi all, I am doing my final year project on handwritten recognition using FPGA. For the pre-processing part, I am going to do the following: i) skew detection and correction ii) slant detection and correction iii) character segmentation iv) size normalization Then the output will be processed by using Discrete Wavelet Transform and recognition is done using Fuzzy logic. May I know how to do pre-processing part? Some guide to do in VHDL will be very helpful.I had search a lot for VHDL code for pre-processing but to no avail. Please advise me in any sense.

HI, why we can estimate the energy consumption whith a virtex5 and not with a virtex3 or 2 for example? what is this special characteristic? thank youArticle: 143494
Hello, We use several source-synchronous LVDS-based interfaces in several PCB designs, such as a unidirectional interface from several multi-channel ADC devices (TI ADS725x) towards FPGA (Xilinx Virtex4 family, SX subfamily), or a full-duplex interface between high-end DSP devices (ADI ADSP-TS201S) and FPGA (Xilinx Virtex4 family, FX subfamily). In both mentioned cases, we use on-die LVDS termination on the FPGA side, e.g. the LVDS receiver side. The used I/O standard is LVDS25, with the attribute DIFF_TERM set to TRUE. In both cases, the (data)bitrate is about 500 MHz, both using DDR techniques, e.g. the clock-rate is half of this (250 MHz). The data-clock provided by the ADCs to FPGAs has a continous nature, the data-clock provided by the DSPs to the FPGAs is non-continuous, e.g. only active when there are databits (1 or 4 bits) to be transmitted, else in an idle state. In all cases, we have performed SI simulations with IBIS models provided by the vendors (TI/ADI/Xilinx), and the exact transmission line details extracted from our PCB layout, e.g. microstrip/vias/stripline, etc. Of course, the nets have been routed according to the requirements, e.g. with correct differential impedance, matched lengths, etc. etc. SI simulation was succesful, simulated eye-diagrams etc. were OK. Note: the on-die termination resistor (100 ohm) was not included in the IBIS model of the Xilinx LVDS receiver, and needed to be added manually. Based on the good simulation results and the overall lack of available PCB area, we decided to use on-die termination. On the physical target boards however, we encountered difficulties on these LVDS interfaces, and the measured signals do not look good at all. In the time-domain, we are measuring (with Lecroy SDA) RC-like curves on the (data)signals, when they have been stable (either 0 or 1) for a while and when they start switching again (to 1 or 0 respectively). We are aware that the 100 ohm on-die termination "resistor" is in reality not a physical resistor between the P- and N terminal(s) of the LVDS pair(s), at least not in case of FPGA devices. In reality, both terminals have a Thevenin-equivalent circuit, each consisting of two other "resistors", one from the terminal upto the I/O supply voltage, and another downto ground. In reality, these "resistors" are one or more FETs, switched on/off by the FPGA configuration bitstream to achieve the right termination scheme for the chosen I/O standard. We are almost running out of things we can still check, e.g. all FPGA connections, power supply/integrity, decoupling, trace impedances, FPGA configuration, etc. etc. The FPGA vendor is involved since several weeks now, but they seem to be as flabbergasted by our observations as we are ourselves.... ;-) My questions are: - does anybody as a user of FPGA devices (or LVDS in general) recognize the observations mentioned above, preferably from own experience/measurements? - are the assumptions regarding the internal FPGA termination circuits correct? - can it be than any non-linearity of the Thevenin FETs causes these problems? - any other brilliant ideas, hints, etc. Any help is welcome. Best regards, JaapArticle: 143495
hi guys
i've working on a project for ship classification
part of it is the communication to send the processed data to base station
via HF communication.
since controlling the modem doesnt really need the parallel processing, i
decided to design it using C instead of verilog, so logic elements can be
save for other parts
i don't have any problem designing the controller on nios ide.
to control the rs232 i just have to declare it in SOPCbuilder, and to
access it in C nios, i just open it as a file and read & write to it like
this:
FILE * port;
port = fopen("/dev/uart","w+"); // rs232 controller is declared in
// SOPCbuilder as uart
fprintf(port,"testing"); //writing
fscanf(port,"%c",&scan_buffer);//reading
but how am i going to access it through uClinux? Do i need to make any
extra step or it will just be the same as this?
i read some forums that said we have to change the stdout/stdin for uclinux
to be channel to uart instead of jtaguart.Is there any other way?
if anybody has any experience on controlling rs232 on uclinux please help
me.

Hi,
I have a small design in VHDL with black box which i am trying to
synthesize
using Xilinx ISE 11.2.
I get an error when running the command ngdbuild.
ERROR:NgdBuild:604 - logical block 'inst' with type 'my_block' could not
be
resolved. A pin name misspelling can cause this, a missing edif or ngc
file,
or the misspelling of a type name. Symbol 'my_block' is not supported
in
target 'virtex5'.
The design has two files
my_block.vhd ---

end archi;
I am using the commandline to run my commands and not the GUI.
command which generated error:

I am a newbie to XST. So your help is most appreciated. Please explain
all the steps i need to do as i am a newbie to XST.I normally use
command line to run the tools so please send across a solution for
command line.
Thanking you in advance

Thanks Gae for detailed response. This seems to be a big undertaking. One of the issue that I see is that the ASIC design team will be constantly reving the HDL code. I get the feeling that there is a fair amount of time needed to convert the asic design that can work in FPGA. I am not sure if it is easy to keep up with the latest code drop from asic design team. Cadence has emulation hardware called Palladium. ASIC to Palladium netlist conversion seems a bit easier. It does not require big changes to the design - for example replacing latches with flipflops, clocking. Thus asiic to palladium netlist conversion process is able to keep up with the design team code drop updates. Any comments on how this can be as good as Palladium?Article: 143499
Jaap, The waveforms will look different at any point OTHER than across the termination. You can see this for yourself in the simulation, by placing the package element in the simulation (i.e. two short -- 10-20mm t-lines before the termination and IO pin loading model). If you have already done this, then you are aware of where you look influences what you see. Looking directly across the termination is what the receiver sees, so that is what matters. The termination is not a carbon resistor, but it is as good as one when it comes to looking like a resistor, so that is not the issue. Often, the attribute is not set properly, and the resistor is not enabled. Have you checked in FPGA_editor, and do you clearly see the resistor termination enabled? Does the receive voltage appear twice as high as it is indicated in the simulation? (clearly indicating the resistor is not enabled) You do not mention the problem: bad data, occasional incorrect data, bad data when other IOs switch only, etc. As a customer, the magic words are "lines down." If you say this, the case MUST be escalated. If unresolved, it must be escalated again and again, until it gets to the "Fire Marshall" who reports to the Senior VP and CEO on unresolved cases, and their status. Since I invented, implemented, this system, and was the first Fire Marshall, I am very familiar with the system, and it works really well -- use it! A case number is very useful: if you email it to me, I can check on its status, and help get it escalated.
