QSPI Flash Simulation As the title of the post suggests, my intention was to originally write about QSPI (Quad SPI) only, but I would not have likely written about it when everything worked as intended, but as we already know, things are never that simple and the...
The most basic setup of simulating/using PCIe on Xilinx FPGA / SoC devices is having a single endpoint (EP) and a single Root Complex (RC). One may accomplish this by instantiating only the base Hard IP Wrappers (Consisting of Physical Layer, Data Link Layer and...
This time, I have decided to create a small and simple demo in order to show how to simulate PCIe interface (Without any DMA or PCIe bridge) for Xilinx devices as the PCIe is slowly becoming a standardized interface for FPGA in most applications from consumer...
The times when designers used to calculate and adjust manually delays across PCBs to match a device’s requirements (Such as a memory or ADC/DAC interface) for a few megatransfers / second are definitely over nowadays. Even though they are still used on some...
When I started to learn how to write linux kernel drivers, the very first suggestion was to avoid writing them. I dont have the same recommendation for anybody – writing linux kernel drivers requires some additional knowledge, precision and patience, but its not...
Most of newer ADCs and DACs tend to use the JESD204b/c standards simply due to higher performance requirements – the ever growing need for more usable bandwidth, faster ADCs and DACs with increased resolution per sample and multi-channel implementations....
