UltraScale / TE0802 Data Rate
Last post by faly477a - October 23, 2023, 03:44:30 PM
Hello Guys, my supervisor asked me to test the date rate at communication between TE0802. Is there a specific Software or tool for this test? Or should I write a test programm by myself ?


Thank you ;D

Hello,
Yes, that is possible. The Fmeter is a simple frequency counter that simply calculates the ratio between known and unknown frequencies.

Great  :). Thank you for your quick reply.

Hello,

I would like to know about the Trenz IP "Labtools fmeter" IP Licence terms.
There is no Licence terms in the source files.
Is it possible to use IP in a commercial project without violating any license terms?

Regards

Hi,
I must have overlooked your answer. Sorry.
Voltages are actually measured before delivery. It is strange that it was missing. But I'm glad you were able to solve the problem.

Hi,

Yes I am programming the Si5345 in my baremetal code and the power line is also enabled.
As I mentioned in my reply post, this was due to a hardware fault. I managed to get it working after replacing the resistors.

Cheers.

Hi,
territorial io
you could simply have the HDL code generated for other device and if it is not encrypted, adjust it to be compatible with Spartan 3. The question is whether it is worth the effort. Spartan 3 is EOL anyway, which means you should develop on newer devices.

Thanks for your useful advice :)

QuoteI took the circuit from this post to get the transceiver clock onto normal interconnect and had a look at it with the ILA core and it isn't moving. I don't think a reset issue would do that because the complex ethernet core isn't involved, it's just a couple of buffers
You mean from the other post? Yes, there were only buffers in there. But if you don't connect them properly, you won't see anything.  As far as I can see, he had set the buffers correctly on the other post and then divided CLK down and simply checked whether the counter was working.
The other customer did not comment further on the lack of resistors. We do voltage tests here before delivery, so that should actually be covered.

QuoteIn the end I decided to switch to another board which has multiple RJ45 1G ethernets connected to the PL using RGMII rather than transceivers so I could make progress on the main part of my project.
Ok, I'm sorry I couldn't be of more help. Good luck with your project.
