16:55 | se6ast1an | good evening, meeting in 5 minutes!
| |
16:57 | BAndiT1983|away | changed nick to: BAndiT1983
| |
17:03 | se6ast1an | meeting time!
| 17:03 | vup | is here
|
17:03 | se6ast1an | bluez_[m]: please go ahead
| 17:03 | metal_dent[m] | is present
|
17:03 | bluez_[m] | thanks!... hi everyone
| |
17:04 | bluez_[m] | so this week i spent my time looking for a solution for the driver to work also with the analog switch in the new powerboards
| |
17:04 | Bertl_oO | changed nick to: Bertl
| 17:04 | Bertl | is here ...
|
17:05 | bluez_[m] | initially the plan was to make a separate driver for it... but fortunately i stumbled upon an already existing driver that did that called i2c-mux-gpio
| |
17:05 | bluez_[m] | so i just had to put things together and describe everything in devicetree overlay...and it worked like a charm!
| |
17:06 | bluez_[m] | https://github.com/Swaraj1998/axiom-beta-rfdev
| |
17:06 | Bertl | excellent!
| |
17:06 | bluez_[m] | i added the dt overlays to the repo as well.. and updated readme
| 17:07 | anuejn | is here
|
17:07 | bluez_[m] | m happy that finally the driver works with all the mux/switches... so after all these important things done i can finally focus on the openocd side
| |
17:08 | se6ast1an | nice!
| |
17:08 | bluez_[m] | there have been many unexpected delays ik... this time its for sure...i guess ':D
| |
17:08 | bluez_[m] | so thats it from me!!
| |
17:09 | bluez_[m] | thanks bertl and sebastian :)
| |
17:09 | se6ast1an | many thanks, metal_dent[m] please go ahead
| |
17:09 | metal_dent[m] | hi everyone!
| |
17:10 | metal_dent[m] | last week was pretty good, the communication was already established between the remote and the host PC so i added the sequence number and checksum checking functionalities too
| |
17:11 | metal_dent[m] | the command string (or data) coming from PC already has sequence number and checksum so on the remote side also they are calculated and compared and only then a positive acknowledgement is sent
| |
17:12 | metal_dent[m] | after receiving "ACK" the hex data from the chip is read (or write into, according to the command), so more than majority of the work is done!
| |
17:13 | metal_dent[m] | although there is some delay but mostly due to the obstacles i faced in the last phase
| |
17:13 | metal_dent[m] | that's it from me :)
| |
17:14 | se6ast1an | many thanks!
| |
17:14 | se6ast1an | what are your next steps now?
| |
17:15 | metal_dent[m] | now with the command string the name of the chip and the command (read or write) is sent so accordingly i just have call the methods (the chip selection and read/write methods are already present in the code)
| |
17:15 | BAndiT1983 | don't forget continuous data, which has come through the USB connection, this is not to underestimate
| |
17:16 | metal_dent[m] | oh yes
| |
17:16 | se6ast1an | right! preetimenghwani[ your turn, please go ahead
| |
17:17 | preetimenghwani[ | Hello Everyone
| |
17:17 | preetimenghwani[ | I spent last week debugging the reduced framework, now the framework works as expected.
| |
17:18 | preetimenghwani[ | I have also extended it for two writers
| |
17:18 | preetimenghwani[ | Now i will be starting with the task of doubling the throughput
| |
17:19 | preetimenghwani[ | For that i will be discussing the ideas with Bertl. Thats it from me!
| |
17:19 | Bertl | great!
| |
17:19 | preetimenghwani[ | Thanks!
| |
17:19 | Bertl | how is the status of the alternate remapping?
| |
17:19 | Bertl | i.e. RGRGRG .... / GBGBGB... instead of RGGB RGGB ...
| |
17:20 | Bertl | just curious because we might make good use of that soon if available
| |
17:20 | preetimenghwani[ | okay, so currently i am using RGRGRG...../GBGBGB format
| |
17:21 | preetimenghwani[ | sorry i mean RGGB
| |
17:21 | preetimenghwani[ | We can discuss about the ideas after the meeting
| |
17:22 | preetimenghwani[ | I had a few questions to ask
| |
17:23 | se6ast1an | right, sounds like a good after meeting task
| |
17:23 | se6ast1an | vup/anuejn would you be so kind an tell us about the hackathon progress so far?
| |
17:23 | se6ast1an | vup and anuejn are in vienna for pretty much exactly one week now
| |
17:23 | se6ast1an | working on very interesting AXIOM things
| |
17:23 | anuejn | we have worked on multiple things so far:
| |
17:24 | earabul | joined the channel | |
17:24 | anuejn | we did some development on the usb3 plugin modules / the ft601
| |
17:25 | anuejn | there we did some performance tests which showed that we can transfer about 360Mbytes reliably in one direction (without data loss)
| |
17:26 | anuejn | then we implemented a libusb based rust library to interface with the ft601 to avoid the propriatery lib ftdi provides (https://github.com/apertus-open-source-cinema/ft60x-rs)
| |
17:28 | anuejn | currently we are working with Bertl on integrating that into the beta gateware and writing gateware for the machxo2 on the plugin module
| |
17:29 | anuejn | we also worked on extending our infrastructure that lets us read / write CSRs inside an FPGA to support transport over JTAG
| |
17:29 | anuejn | this will hopefully help us while debugging code in the plugin module or the hdmi digitizer
| |
17:30 | anuejn | the usb3 on the digitizer was also tested (same chip; similiar gateware)
| |
17:31 | anuejn | we now need to configure / use the gigabit transcievers on the HDMI digitizer to make progress on that project
| |
17:32 | Bertl | maybe mithro or _florent_ are interested to help there?
| |
17:32 | vup | furthermore we worked on some fw2.x improvements
| |
17:33 | vup | we added replaced devmem2 with memtool, as the former was producing unexpected behaviour in some cases
| |
17:33 | vup | the script names were renamed to have consistent names between internal usage and user facing usage
| |
17:34 | vup | furthermore we finally merged nctrl and the webui into the main branch of fw2.x
| |
17:35 | vup | with these two, one can now for example plug a wifi stick into the beta and set the exposure time and analog gain from a web interface
| |
17:36 | vup | thats it probably
| |
17:37 | se6ast1an | for testing this with more wifi sticks your help would be appreciated, if you have a wifi stick and a raspberry pi for example and you know the wifi stick works under linux like the raspi AND has soft-ap capabilities please let me know
| |
17:37 | se6ast1an | I will order it and test for compatibility in the beta
| |
17:37 | se6ast1an | many thanks vup/anuejn, a very successful/busy week
| |
17:37 | se6ast1an | quick update from me:
| |
17:38 | se6ast1an | I benchmarked our injection mold heat sink for the axiom beta developer kit
| |
17:38 | se6ast1an | https://cloud.apertus.org/index.php/apps/gallery/s/j5fyMy25r6D8Lgi
| |
17:38 | se6ast1an | and while matching 40x40 fans still need to be ordered I tried a general purpose 60x60 fan for now to see if the temperatures stay within the operation range of the Zynq
| |
17:38 | se6ast1an | which lists 85°C as max operating temperature
| |
17:39 | se6ast1an | which we seem to easily stay below, without fan we get dangerously close to it
| |
17:39 | se6ast1an | but as long as there is a bit of airflow it seems to be working fine
| |
17:39 | se6ast1an | further tests and suitable fans will follow
| |
17:40 | se6ast1an | and comparison to the cnc milled heatsink + 30x30 fan as currently used in the ABDK as requested by Bertl
| |
17:40 | se6ast1an | Bertl would you be so kind and finish us off again? :)
| 17:40 | Bertl | does another special move ... *ba-zing*
|
17:41 | Bertl | well, I spent most of my time with hardware last week
| |
17:41 | Bertl | first, I updated the remote hardware configuration of the remote betas
| |
17:41 | Bertl | so we now have one version of each power board available for testing
| |
17:42 | Bertl | (the PCA9540, PCA9543 and the Analog Switch)
| |
17:43 | Bertl | in this process, I also updated the betas to fw 2.x so that we can test this as well
| |
17:43 | Bertl | I also built myself a minimalistic partial Beta to test the firmware changes for the usb3 interface
| |
17:44 | Bertl | for this, I also updated to vivado 2020.1 and quickly hit a bug/feature there which seems to increase the build time exponentially :/
| |
17:45 | Bertl | there was also some progress on the IMU side, we also have a test setup for that now
| |
17:45 | Bertl | and hopefully we will have some data from the sensors soon
| |
17:46 | Bertl | that's it from my side for this week!
| |
17:46 | se6ast1an | any news on the automatic prober script and new PB assembly?
| |
17:47 | Bertl | not much new there, I did write a few lines on the gcode interface though
| |
17:48 | se6ast1an | ok, I assume after the hackathon we should give that #1 priority again
| |
17:48 | Bertl | yes, that's the plan so far
| |
17:49 | se6ast1an | many thanks!
| |
17:49 | se6ast1an | anyone else with topics to discuss or reports to share?
| |
17:49 | se6ast1an | apoorva_arora: ?
| |
17:51 | se6ast1an | ok then
| |
17:51 | se6ast1an | MEETING CONLUDED
| |
17:51 | se6ast1an | many thanks everyone
| |
17:51 | se6ast1an | keep it up! :D
