Board schematics

  • File:SCH-DS-xDM-Rev0.PDF
  • note: FPGA pin annotations ("IO", "SCLK", "PCLK", etc) on the schematics are bogus, instead, trace them to the FPGA pins.
  • note: ENC A is J800, ENC B is J801, ENC C is J900 (schematic name to enclustra name)
  • note: Enclustra special pins: "GC" is "clock capable", "HDGC" is "clock capable", "MGTREFCLK" is MGT reference clocks.
  • board modifications:
    • ethernet mac chip
    • NIM output (no U15, etc)
    • RJ45 wrong pinout (board mod or special ethernet cable)
    • 125 MHz clock mods (TBW)
    • disconnect QSFP0_SEL from SFP_RS0 and QSFP1_SEL from SFP_RS1, these signals are not used by modern SFPs
    • provide SFP i2c modsel to allow SFP and QSFP at the same time on address 0x50

Clock distribution

Simplified:

  • 125 MHz osc -> CLK_XO_125 -> MGTREFCLK0_A -> not used
  • 125 MHz osc -> CLK3_XO_125 -> MGTREFCLK1_B -> SFP RX ref clock, QSFP RX and TX ref clock (this is not final design!)
  • (disconnected) 125 MHz osc -> CLK2_XO_125 -> FPGA AG8,AH8 (GC)
  • 125 MHz osc -> C.C. in1
  • C.C. in0 <- CLK_EXT1 (10 MHz GPS clock)
  • C.C. in1 <- 125 MHz osc
  • (disconnected) C.C. in2 <- CLK_CC_IN <- MGTREFCLK0_D <- SFP RX clock (cannot be used because of uncontrollable phase)
  • C.C. in2 <- CLK2_XO_125 <- FPGA AG8,AH8 (GC) <- SFP RX recovered 125 MHz clock
  • C.C. in3 <- CLK_FB
  • C.C. 125 MHz -> CLK_CC_OUT0 -> MGTREFCLK0_B -> QSFP RX and TX ref clock (final design)
  • C.C. 125 MHz -> CLK_CC_OUT1 -> MGTREFCLK1_D -> SFP TX clock
  • C.C. 62.5 MHz -> VX clock fanout

proposed changes:

  • add C.C. 125 MHz -> new CLK_CC_OUT2 (old CLK2_XO_125) -> FPGA AG8,AH8 (GC)
  • change C.C. in2 <- new CLK_CC_IN <- FPGA AK8,AK9 (non-GC)

Complete:

125 MHz oscillator - U5 fan out -
  q0 -> CLK_XO_125 -> ENC C72,C74 -> FPGA R7,R8 MGTREFCLK0_A (not used)
  q1 -> U6 C.C. in1
  q2 -> CLK3_XO_125 -> ENC C7,C9 -> FPGA J7,J8 MGTREFCLK1_B -> SFP RX reference clock, QSFP RX and TX reference clocks (not final design!)
  q3 -> disconnected on the board, was CLK2_XO_125 -> ENC C151,C153 -> FPGA AG8,AH8 (GC)

U6 C.C (clock cleaner) -

in0 <- CLK_EXT1 (presumably GPS 10 MHz ref clock)
in1 <- 125 MHz oscillator via U5
in2 <- (was: CLK_CC_IN <- ENC B10,B12 <- FPGA D9,D10 MGTREFCLK0_D <- SFP RX clock, 125 MHz)
in2 <- CLK2_XO_125 <- ENC C151,B153 <- FPGA AG8,AH8 (GC) <- mgt_link_data_to_processing.rx_data_clk (SFP RX data clock, 125 MHz)
in3 <- CLK_FB

out0 -> CLK_CCA -> U12 (125 MHz)
out1 -> CLK_CCB -> VX1..6 (62.5 MHz)
out2 -> CLK_CCC -> VX7..12 (62.5 MHz)
out3 -> CLK_FB into in3

CLK_CCA -> U12 (125 MHz fan out) ->

Q0 -> not used
Q1 -> CLK_CC_OUT0 -> ENC C3-5 -> FPGA L7,L8 MGTREFCLK0_B -> QSFP RX and TX reference clocks (final design)
Q2 -> CLK_CC_OUT1 -> ENC B3-5 -> FPGA B9,B10 MGTREFCLK1_D -> SFP TX clock
Q3 -> not used
Q4 -> not used
Q5 -> SMA J9/J10

CLK_TP0 - FPGA N7,N8 MGTREFCLK1_A - ENC C69,C71 - DS-DM SMA J11, J12 (NOT IN CDM PROJECT)

Notes:
* CLK_XO_125 (125 MHz osc) is not used
* 62.5 MHz VX clock does not go into the FPGA
* CLK_EXT0 going to in1 of U5 cannot be used. only permitted frequency is 125 MHz (it drives the MGT reference clocks) and is this frequency is too high for LEMO cables and connectors

Proposed modifications:
- CLK_CC_IN: from FPGA output pin (ENC C142,C144 - FPGA AK8,AK9) to clock cleaner in2 (instead of CLK2_XO_125 pins)
- CLK_CCA -> U12 -> currently unused out3 -> CLK2_XO_125 FPGA pins
- repurpose CLK_EXT0 at GPS 1pps/IRIG input to FPGA

I2C clock builder connection

  • use Silicon Labs USB "Clock builder pro field programmer", www.silabs.com/CBProgrammer
  • connect rainbow jumper cable pins:
    • black - 1-GND to GND on DS-DM
    • white - 3-SCLK to SCL on the DS-DM
    • grey - 7-SDA_SDIO to SDA on the DS-DM
  • power up the DS-DM
  • plug USB programmer into Windows laptop
  • on Windows, run "ClockBuilder Pro"
  • it should report "Field programmer detected", press "EVB GUI"
  • in EVB GUI, press "Config", set I2C address 0x6B
  • press "Scan", it should find Si5394A-A-GM
  • select the "Status" tab, should see real-time status of clock chip

GDM MGT configuration

  • TX configuration:
  • GDM MGT transceivers are configured as "multilane" TX and RX.
  • there is 12 TXes ("lanes")
  • MGT reference 125 MHz clock goes into [2:0]gtreclk00_in and [11:0]gtrefclk0_in
  • one MGT is designated as "master"
  • PLL of master MGT converts reference clock into common TX clock and common tx_user_clk2 which becomes tx_data_clk
  • common tx_user_clk2 aka tx_data_clk goes into all TXes and clocks tx_data.
  • tx_user_clk2 aka tx_data_clk is 125 MHz but not same phase as MGT reference clock.
  • RX interim configuration:
  • there is 12 RXes ("lanes")
  • each RX produces it's own recovered RX clock
  • "multilane" configuration assumes all RX recovered clocks run at the same frequency (TX on the other end are driven by common TX clock, see above), but have different phase
  • one RX recovered clock is designated as "master" (rx_user_clk2 aka rx_data_clk) and a phase-matching fifo/buffer is used to bring rx_data from all 12 RXes to this common rx_data_clk
  • this works because each CDM SFP TX runs on the SFP RX recovered clock which is frequency-locked with the GDM QSFP TX clock.
  • RX final configuration:
  • MGTs permit using the common TX clock (tx_user_clk2 aka tx_data_clk) as the common rx_data_clk (they are frequency locked through the CDM).
  • this permits use of tx_data_clk as the main clock domain in the GDM and removes the need to bring rx_data into the tx_data_clk domain (actually this is done in the MGT RX phase matching fifo/buffer).

Clock path

10 MHz ext clock or GDM 125 MHz oscillator
-> GDM QSFP MGT reference clock 125 MHz
-> MGT PLL -> tx_data_clk 125 MHz (GDM main clock domain) and TX bit clock 2.5 GHz
-> GDM QSFP optic transmitter
-> CDM SFP optic receiver
-> CDM SFP MGT, RX reference clock is CDM 125 MHz oscillator
-> MGT RX recovered clock 125 MHz (CDM main clock domain)
-> CC_CLK_IN -> CDM C.C. -> CC_CLK_OUT1 -> CDM SFP TX reference clock 125 MHz
-> MGT PLL -> tx_data_clk 125 MHz and TX bit clock 2.5 GHz
-> (tx_data phase matching fifo from CDM main clock domain to tx_data_clk)
-> CDM SFP optic transmitter
-> GDM QSFP RX optic receiver (12x)
-> GDM QSFP MGT (RX reference clock is same as TX reference clock)
-> MGT RX recovered clock (12x recovered clocks)
-> in multi-lane configuration, one of them is the "master" recovered clock rx_data_clk
-> (rx_data phase matching fifo from rx_data_clk to GDM main clock domain)

CDM rx_clk mux

when CDM SFP is not connected, there is no SFP recovered clock and a mux is used to switch between clk_cc_out0 (power up default) and rx_clk_mgt (SFP recovered clock)

Test SFP disconnected

note: if I say "--cc-in1", CC seems to lock on the 10 MHz GPS external clock, to prevent this, test sequence includes reloading the CC and the reset of MGT.

Clock domains

GPS

  • no GPS : GDM runs from internal 125 MHz oscillator
  • external 10 MHz clock : GDM runs from external 10 MHz clock and optional 1pps signal (use VME-NIMIO32 NIM outputs)
  • GPS receiver : GDM runs from GPS 10 MHz clock and GPS IRIG serial data
  • LNGS GPS:
    • provides 1pps and serial data over fiber from GPS receiver (master). LNGS xxx box is not used.
    • serial data goes to GDM, decoded, 1pps signal extracted, goes to LEMO output
    • 1pps from GDM is used to train the Rubidium clock which provides a 10 MHz clock

    • CLK_CC_OUT1 - not used (CDM SFP reference clock)
    • CLK_CC_OUT2 - not used

    • ds20k block
  • (in interim design, rx_data_clk is disconnected from tx_data_clk. rx_data_clk is the "multilane master clock" which is one of the 12x RX recovered clocks. inside the MGT, 12x phase matching fifos for RX data from 12x RX recovered clocks to rx_data_clk)

note: all these clocks are frequency locked to 125 MHz

VX

  • everything runs on the VX main 125 MHz clock
  • correct phase of VX to CDM LVDS data is adjusted by scan of CDM VX RX PLL clock phase (VX to CDM link is now established)
  • correct phase of CDM to VX LVDS data is adjusted by scan of CDM VX RX PLL clock phase (link is established after VX to CDM idle data pattern changes from "VX RX data bad" to "good".
  • after good phases are found by scan, they are not expected to change unless cables are changed, CDM and VX modules are changed or CDM firmware is rebuilt. (rebuild of VX firmware should not affect LVDS data phase).
  • if there is excessive link errors, phase scan must be repeated.

Board test plan

To test:

  • Enclustra FPGA board
  • SFP port - SFP_RS0/RS1 connected to QSFP0_SEL/1_SEL is wrong? our Finisar SFP says RS0, RS1 N/C, so probably okey.
  • SW5 CLK_EXT1 NIM works. TTL needs to be tested. flipping SW5 CLK_EXT0 side from NIM to TTL makes CLK_EXT1 go LOS and OOF in the clock chip. R23 and R53 should be removed?
  • BOOT_MODE 0 and 1

Partial:

  • U23 3.3V current meter and thermometer. V1,V2 is current monitor, same as in application note. V3,V4 is thermometer, same in application note, except capacitor C118 is 0.1u instead of 470pF. Tested ok: Tint, VCC, V1, V2, V1-V2. Test failed: TR2 reads 50-something degC instead of same as Tint.

Done:

  • J7A, J7B LEMO outputs EXT_OUT(1), EXT_OUT(2) (NIM/TTL) (tested 23nov2022, K.O.). TTL ???, NIM inverted.
    • TTL out no 50 ohm termination: 0=0V, 1=5V, rise and fall time ~5 ns

  • QSFP i2c tested KO 22jun2023
  • i2c testing complete 22jun2023
  • QSFP rx,tx tested 26june2023. lane0,1,2 ok, lane3 tx not connected, laser is off. qsfp0,1,2,3 all lanes ok.
  • SFP rx,tx tested 26june2023. rx and tx okey. LOS ok, mod_absent ok.

Failure:

  • ethernet: does not connect to alliedtelesys switch. connects to my USB-eth adapter at 100 Mbit speed. uboot mii status reports connection speed oscillating between 1000, 100 and 10. K.O. 16-sep-2022
  • SFP LOS and mod_absent are swapped (in the FPGA pin definitions?)
  • QSFP slot numbering is wrong.

Checklist for newly build boards

  • put new board on workbench
  • check - vme connector present, vme extraction handles present
  • check - standoff are removed from all thru-holes
  • plug Enclustra module
  • check - SW6 both switches are in the "PS" position
  • connect micro-usb cable from linux PC
  • connect ethernet from 1gige capable network switch
  • connect power from lab power supply - GND, +5V and -12V nominal, +5.7V and -12.5V actual
  • power up, +5V current 2.10-2.8A, -12V current 0.05A
  • on linux PC, open a new terminal, run: minicom -D /dev/ttyACM0
  • in minicom window, observe messages about Xilinx first stage boot loader, etc
  • on the ethernet switch, observe network link is 1gige speed (not 10mbit, not 100mbit).
  • if everything boots okey, there will be a login prompt, login as root, password root.
  • busybox devmem 0x80010000 # read firmware version number, i.e. 0xEDAD0A77
  • TBW - test LEMO inputs
  • TBW - test LEMO outputs
  • TBW - test VX connectors
  • TBW - test SFP connector
  • TBW - test QSFP connector

read ethernet mac address from i2c

(this code is copied from uboot command line i2c code)

in uboot sources board/xilinx/common/board.c replace original function with this:

// special code to read ethernet MAC address from the DS-DM-Rev0 board. K.O. Sep-2022

int zynq_board_read_rom_ethaddr(unsigned char *ethaddr)
{
        struct udevice *bus;
	int ret;
        int busnum = 0;

	ret = uclass_get_device_by_seq(UCLASS_I2C, busnum, &bus);
	if (ret) {
           printf("%s: No bus %d\n", __func__, busnum);
           return ret;
	}

        int chip_addr = 0x5B;

        struct udevice *dev;

        ret = i2c_get_chip(bus, chip_addr, 1, &dev);
	if (ret) {
           printf("%s: Bus %d no chip 0x%02x\n", __func__, busnum, chip_addr);
           return ret;
	}

        int dev_addr = 0x98;

        unsigned char data[8];
           
        ret = dm_i2c_read(dev, dev_addr, data, 8);

	if (ret) {
           printf("%s: Bus %d chip 0x%02x read error %d\n", __func__, busnum, chip_addr, ret);
           return ret;
	}

        printf("%s: Bus %d chip 0x%02x addr 0x%02x read: 0x %02x %02x %02x %02x %02x %02x %02x %02x\n", __func__, busnum, chip_addr, dev_addr, data[0], data[1], data[2], data[3], data[4], data[5], data[6], data[7]);

        // see Atmel-8807-SEEPROM-AT24MAC402-602-Datasheet.pdf

        if (data[0] == 0) {
           // eiu-48 chip
           ethaddr[0] = data[2];
           ethaddr[1] = data[3];
           ethaddr[2] = data[4];
           ethaddr[3] = data[5];
           ethaddr[4] = data[6];
           ethaddr[5] = data[7];
        } else {
           // eiu-64 chip
           ethaddr[0] = data[0];
           ethaddr[1] = data[1];
           ethaddr[2] = data[2];
           ethaddr[3] = data[5];
           ethaddr[4] = data[6];
           ethaddr[5] = data[7];
        }

        printf("%s: ethaddr %02x:%02x:%02x:%02x:%02x:%02x\n", __func__, ethaddr[0], ethaddr[1], ethaddr[2], ethaddr[3], ethaddr[4], ethaddr[5]);

        return ret;
}

also this should have worked if i2c_xxx() functions were enabled in uboot:

i2c_set_bus_num(0);
i2c_probe(0x5b);
i2c_read(0x5b, 0x9a, ethaddr, 6);

read ethernet mac address from i2c (SHOULD WORK)

from: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/43637540/is-there-linux-or-u-boot-support-to-read-a-mac-address-from-a-chip-at-startup

#ethernet related setup

read ethernet mac address from i2c (DOES NOT WORK)

this method does not work: inside board/xilinx/common/board.c:int zynq_board_read_rom_ethaddr(unsigned char *ethaddr), uclass_get_device_by_ofnode(UCLASS_I2C_EEPROM, eeprom, &dev) returns ENODEV and read from i2c does not happen. K.O. Sep-2022

Read:

Note:

  • 0x5B is the i2c chip address
  • 0x9A is the data offset inside the chip, see datasheet or i2c read dump above.

description

same thing, in words:

detector
digitizer, 125 MHz
digital filter
digital discriminator
hit map, 64 bits at 125 MHz (could be 250 MHz, filter and discriminator clock)
packetizer, 64 bits -> id, timestamp, 8x 8-bit words, eop
8/10 serializer, 12.5 MHz parallel in, 125 MHz serial out
lvds line to CDM vx_rx
BBB: also VX busy to lvds line to CDM vx_rx, do not want to depend on serial comm for vx busy, do not want to inject async data into the hit map packet stream
--- CDM
lvds line capture in IBUF register, vxN_rx clock, 125 MHz clock, from PLL with adjustable phase, scan phase to find sweet spot
vx rx 10/8 deserializer, vxN_rx clock, stobes out parallel data every 10 clocks at 12.5 MHz
vx rx phase transfer from vxN_rx clock to main CDM clock, have 10 clocks for transfer to happen
from here everything is on the CDM main clock
vx rx packet adapter, 12.5 MHz 8-bit packets to 125 MHz 16-bit packets, internal FIFO to avoid data overrun
sfp tx mux, all VX packet streams into one CDM sfp tx packet stream
BBB: capture VX RX busy to CDM main clock (IBUF register), grand-or becomes vx_rx_busy
sfp tx packetizer (data,eop,vx_rx_busy -> data,k)
sfp tx 16/20 serializer, 16 bit at 125 MHz in, 2500 MHz serial out (20 bits at 125 MHz)
sfp tx fiber link to GDM, 2 Gigabits/sec
--- GDM
qsfp rx deserializer, 16 bit at 125 MHz output on main GDM clock
qsfp rx depacketizer (data,k -> packet data,eop; qsfp_rx_busy)
qsfp rx demux, hit map packets routed to GDM trigger logic block
GDM trigger logic block looks at hit map, generates yes/no trigger decision, encodes it as a trigger packet
TSM generator encodes GPS time data as a TSM packet
qsfp tx mux - trigger packets, tsm packets, etc to qsfp tx packet stream
qsfp tx packetizer (data,eop;trg,tsm,bsy -> data,k)
NB: the same tx data is sent to all 12 qsfp tx ports, to make sure we do not accidentally desync the CDMs.
qsfp tx 16/20 serializer, 16-bit at 125 MHz to 20-bit at 250 MHz to 2500 MHz serial out
qsfp tx fiber link to CDM, 2 Gigabits/sec
--- CDM
sfp rx 20/16 deserializer, 16-bit at 125 MHz
sfp rx depacketizer, (data,k -> data,eop;trg_in,tsm_in,bsy_in)
sfp rx demux (in reality, noop, all packets go to same place, vx tx)
vx tx mux (packets from GDM, packets with simulated waveforms from CDM midas frontend via AXI FIFO)
vx tx packet adapter 16-bit at 125 MHz to 8-bit at 12.5 MHz strobed every 10 clocks. NB: most important, this 10-clock strobe runs in sync between all CDMs!
vx tx phase transfer from main CDM clock to vxN_tx clock, have 10 clocks for transfer to happen
from here we run on the vxN_tx clock
vx txN serializer, 8-bit at 12.5 MHz to 125 MHz serial
vx_txN OBUF register, vxN_rx clock, 125 MHz clock, from PLL with adjustable phase, scan phase to find sweet spot
lvds line to vx
BBB: bsy_in from GDM is converted from pulse to level, goes out lvds line to vx, sync to vxN_tx clock
TTT: trg_in from GDM is a pulse, does out lvds line to vx, sync to vxN_tx clock.
NB: tsm is always a packet, bsy is always a signal (no packet), trg can be a packet or signal.
--- VX
lvds data captured by 125 MHz ADC sampling clock (CAEN base firmware logic)
lvds data connected to Yair's block
10/8 deserializer
depacketizer (data,k -> data,eop) to avoid accidental desync, we do not send any no trg, no tsm, no bsy K-codes.
demux
trigger packets go their way (4x 64 bit words of data go to event header: timestamps, hitmap data)
tsm packets go their way (4x 64 bit words of data go to tsm event header: timestamps, GPS time data)
BBB: bsy from lvds line stops waveform acquisition
TTT: trg from lvds line cause waveform acquisition, same as trg packet, but has no timestamp and other data attached to it.

   wire [15:0]  gdm_veto_extend = register_data_in[32][31:16];

On the GDM:

qsfp_rx_bsy[11..0] are pulses received from the CDMs

qsfp_rx_bsy_or is the grand-or of qsfp_rx_bsy masked by qsfp_mask

if qsfp_rx_bsy_or is high, gdm_bsy goes up and stays up for vx_bsy_extend*2 clocks

gdm_veto = gdm_bsy (bsy of any one VX causes trigger veto to all of them)

gdm_veto transition 0->1 causes gdm_veto_pulse. as long as gdm_veto is high, gdm_veto_pulse is generated every gdm_veto_extend clocks

gdm_veto_pulse is sent to all CDMs.

For this to work right, cdm_bsy_extend should not be bigger than gdm_veto_extend.

Register 33 0x80013084 bitmap of enabled VX ports

   wire [11:0]  vx_mask       = register_data_in[33][11:0];

   wire [15:0]  vx_bsy_extend = register_data_in[33][31:16];

On the CDM:

cdm_bsy is a grand-or of all vx_bsy masked by vx_mask (list of active VXes).

vx_bsy_extend controls how often state of cdm_bsy is sent to the GDM. when cdm_bsy goes 0->1, we send a cdm_bsy_pulse and keep resending it every vx_bsy_extend clocks as long as cdm_bsy stays high.

cdm_bsy_pulse is sent to the GDM.

sfp_rx_veto is the received from the GDM

if sfp_rx_veto goes up, cdm_veto goes up and stays up for gdm_veto_extend clocks.

for this to work right, CDM gdm_veto_extend must be bigger than GDM gdm_veto_extend.

cdm_veto goes to VXes on v1_tx_out[1] which is LVDS input 13.

THESE ARE K.O.'s NOTES FOR CREATING THE PETALINUX DIRECTORY.

THEY DO NOT WORK!

COPY PETALINUX FROM A WORKING PROJECT AND USE "make gdm" and "make cdm" AS DESCRIBED BELOW.

  • git clone git@edev-group.triumf.ca:fw/exp/darkside/gcdm.git
  • #Makefile change VIVADO_SETTINGS_SCRIPT := /opt/Xilinx/Vivado/2022.1/settings64.sh

  • . /opt/Xilinx/PetaLinux/2020.2/tool/settings.sh
  • make petalinux_create
  • make petalinux_rebuild_new_hw_des
  • bomb out: The TMPDIR: /home/olchansk/git/ds-dm-gcdm/PetaLinux_GDM_CDM/build/tmp can't be located on nfs.
  • mkdir /tmp/build_tmp
  • rm -rf /home/olchansk/git/ds-dm-gcdm/PetaLinux_GDM_CDM/build/tmp/
  • ln -s /tmp/build_tmp /home/olchansk/git/ds-dm-gcdm/PetaLinux_GDM_CDM/build/tmp
  • try again
  • grinds, loads a whole bunch of packages...
  • finishes with desire to copy things to /tftpboot
  • make sdcard_cp_to wants to copy files from PetaLinux_GDM_CDM/images/linux/ to SD card

prepare bootable sd card

format the sd card

this only needs to be done once

  • become root
  • cd ~olchansk/git/ds-dm-gcdm
  • use "lsblk" to identify the SD card (should show as 8/16/32 GB block device)/ /dev/sdd in this case
  • make sdcard_format SDCARD_DEVICE=/dev/sdd
  • disconnect sd card, reconnect the sd card (to detect new partition tables, etc)

copy CDM boot files

cd /home/dsdmdev/git/ds-dm-gcdm
make copy

copy boot files to the sd card

  • as root: identify partition labels, run "blkid", should say "BOOT", "rootfs" and "data"
  • mount
mkdir /media/olchansk/BOOT
mkdir /media/olchansk/rootfs
mkdir /media/olchansk/data
mount -L BOOT /media/olchansk/BOOT
mount -L rootfs /media/olchansk/rootfs
mount -L data /media/olchansk/data
cp PetaLinux_GDM_CDM/images/linux/BOOT.BIN /media/olchansk/BOOT/
cp PetaLinux_GDM_CDM/images/linux/boot.scr /media/olchansk/BOOT/

  • xilinx magic load BOOT.BIN from SD card
  • load FPGA form BOOT.BIN
  • load and run u-boot from BOOT.BIN or from image.ub
  • u-boot load environment from ??? probably SD card uboot-redund.env, this includes our bootcmd
  • run bootcmd which run bootcmd_dhcp which does:
  • from /tftpboot:
  • load and run boot.scr.uimg which does:
  • load FPGA image xilinx-dsdm/${ipaddr}.bit
  • run bootcmd_pxe which does:
  • load pxelinux.cfg/default-arm-zynqmp which does:
  • load xilinx-dsdm/Image ### this is the linux kernel
  • load xilinx-dsdm/system.dtb ### this is the device tree
  • start linux kernel
  • linux kernel does dhcp
  • linux kernel does nfs mount /nfsroot/%s,vers=3,tcp ### %s is replaced by the hostname supplied by DHCP
  • userland starts and runs to console and ssh login.

dsvslice integration

VX setup

  • general
    • Start acq from user code = y, all others = n (as of Mar 2023: will start when first trigger received)
    • Use NIM IO = y
    • Use external clock = y
    • LVDS quartet is input = n, y, n, y
    • LVDS quartet mode = User, User, User, User
  • trigger from front panel NIM:
    • Trigger on external signal = y, all others = n
    • connect CDM EXT_OUT(2) to VX "TrigIn"
  • trigger from LVDS "Sync" mode
    • Trigger on LVDS Sync signal = y, all others = n
    • LVDS quartet mode = User, Sync, User, User
  • trigger from LVDS "User" mode
    • Trigger on LVDS pair 12 signal = y, all others = n
    • LVDS quartet is input = n, y, n, y
    • LVDS quartet mode = User, User, User, User

GDM setup

  • GDM is gdm0
  • set inputs to NIM mode
  • set outputs to TTL mode (this GDM has wrong NIM output circuit)
  • use top QSFP slot, connect split cable 1 into CDM01, cable 2 into CDM02
  • connect non-inverted NIM trigger signal to top-LEMO-left EXT_IN_LV(1)
  • connect non-inverted NIM TSM signal to top-LEME-right EXT_IN_LV(2)
  • GDM LEDs: TRIG, TSM, trigger enabled, trigger_out
  • GDM LEMO_OUT: trigger, trigger

CDM setup

  • set CDM LEMO inputs to NIM
  • set CDM LEMO outputs to NIM
  • CDM01 is cdm0
  • CDM02 is cdm1
  • connect GDM fiber links to SFP port
  • connect 1st VX port of CDM01 to VX1
  • connect 1st VX port of CDM02 to VX2
  • connect LEMO EXT_OUT(2) to VX "TrigIn", CDM01 to VX1, CDM02 to VX2
  • power up
  • CDM LEDs: GDM TRIG, GDM TSM, trigger enabled, trigger out
  • CDM LEMO_OUT: gdm_trg, trigger

After power up

  • start the CDM frontend from the MIDAS "Programs" page. To start manually, see the Start Command on the Programs page.
  • CDM frontend should enable the VX clock, disable the trigger
  • from the MIDAS status page, goto the CDM page
  • in the CDM01, CDM02 data table, the 2nd number should read 0x35c08008, if it does not and the last 4 digits randomly change, reset the GDM links:
    • in order GDM, CDM01, CDM02, press "reset1" of each board, then press "reset4", then press "reset0", 2nd number should read as above. if it does not, STOP HERE.
  • start a run
  • CDM frontend will enable the trigger
  • GDM frontend will enable the trigger
  • LEDs on the GDM should flash, LEDs on the CDM should flash, TrigIn and TrigOut of the VX should flash
  • stop a run
  • GDM frontend will disable the trigger
  • CDM frontend will disable the trigger

  1.  Turn the power on (bottom left of the scope)
  2.  Access the waveform generator display by pressing the Gen button (bottom right of the scope)
  3.  The waveform generator display allows you to choose wave type (sine, square, etc.), frequency, amplitude, offset, etc. The display is a touch screen. Make the
waveform you want by using the different options.
  4.  Turn the output on (first option on the display) by pressing on the button. It will go from 0 to 1.

     The settings that we are using right now are:
      Type of waveform: Sine wave
      Offset: 0 V
      Amplitude: 1 Vpp
      Frequency: 50 kHz
      Noise: 0 V

Pls have a look at SCH for new rev. I'd like to send it to mfr next week so if you can comment by early next week. Meanwhile I work on layout and other stuff.

Changes:

New ICs - all powered +5V
U20 - inverters for  RUclk RX/TX
U21 - non inverting line driver for RU-1pps-out (so you don't have to route if via GDM to see it on scope)
U22 - non inverting buffer for ext 1pps input

All Lemo connectors have the same position but they are double lemos now => new panel needed
@Marek Walczak<mailto:mwalczak@triumf.ca> you can print it ahead once pcb is done + update IOGC docs and panel description

J2A/B - Test ports for RU-1pps in and out
J5A/B - inputs for external GPS data and External source of 1pps
J6A/B  - aux in/out for GDM

SW1 - no change - select RX/TX  USB/GDM
SW2 - select latch sensitivity for rising/falling edge
SW3 - select source of GPS data (opto or ext)  AND select source of 1pps input (latch or ext)

p.

PRS-10 Rb clock device

The Rb clock PRS-10 device provides these connections:

RS232 RX input - serial communication, non-standard RS232
RS232 TX output - serial communication, non-standard RS232
10 MHz clock output - coax 50 Ohm high resolution 10 MHz clock
1pps output - 1 Hz clock corresponding to the 10 MHz clock
1pps input - 1pps signal from GPS receiver

Mode of operation:

  • 10 MHz clock is always running
  • 1pps output is always running
  • if 1pps input from GPS received is present, after 256 pulses PRS-10 will sync it's 1pps output with the 1pps input by adjusting the frequency of the 10 MHz clock
  • when unlocked: 1pps output and 1pps input unrelated
  • when locked to GPS: 1pps output and 1pps input always go up and down at the same time

Theory of operation:

  • 10 MHz clock is produced by a high-quality crystal (stable on the scale of seconds)
  • crystal oscillator is synchronized to a Rb cell (stable on the scale of hours and days)
  • Rb cell resonant frequency is synchronized to the GPS 1pps signal (stable on the scale of months and years)

VX busy logic

DS-20K DAQ

Overview

DS-DM, GDM and CDM are key parts of the DS-20K DAQ system:

  • common clock distribution from external clock (atomic clock, GPS) to GDM to per-quadrant CDMs to VX digitizers
  • common trigger distribution from GDM internal algorithm or external input to all VX digitizers
  • run control: GDM, CDM, VX all start recording data at the same time (clock and timestamp reset)
  • collection of trigger data from VX digitizers to per-quadrant CDMs to GDM

Deliverables

  • hardware and firmware for GDM to CDM clock distribution
  • hardware and firmware for CDM to VX clock distribution
  • hardware and firmware for GDM external clock input (atomic clock or GPS)

Technical risk items

this refers to unexpected behaviour and performance of system components, causes big difficulty in implementing the system, prevents delivery of deliverables, and prevents or negatively affects operation of the DS-20K DAQ or of the whole experiment.

(14-sep-2022, list is not sorted by any criterial: severity, probability, ease of investigation)

(stability of course is long term stability, across hours, days, weeks, months, years)

  • stability of Enclustra FPGA modules (crashes/year, failures to boot/year, flash corruption/year)
  • stability of GDM external clock PLL (lock loss/year)
  • stability of CDM recovered clock (lock loss/year, unexpected phase drifts, etc)
  • unexpected failures or bit error rates in GDM-CDM fiber links
  • stability of CDM VX clock outputs (stability of clock cleaner chip)
  • stability of VX internal clock distribution (VX PLL lock loss events)
  • stability of VX CAEN base firmware (different versions of CAEN base firmware have different clock distribution behaviour)
  • strange things in CAEN base firmware (unexpected clocking of LVDS I/O, unexpected phase shifts between clocks, etc)
  • DS-DM and VX hardware problems (incompatible LVSD I/O, incompatible clock signals, etc)

Milestones

(14-sep-2022: at this stage of the project, priority must be given to identifying and retiring (so called) technical risk factors. it is not good to build the complete system only to discover that (for example) some Enclustra FPGA modules require 5 attempts to boot and erase their flash memory contents once a month. Both example are real-life actual problems that caused big difficulties in GRIFFIN/TIGRESS and ALPHA-g experiments).

Development and testing milestones in time reversed order:

  • full DAQ data challenge: all VXes, CDM, GDM, network, FEP, TSP, MIDAS operate as designed
  • one quadrant data challenge: 1 VME crate of VX, CDM, GDM, network, FEP, TSP, MIDAS operate as designed
  • vertical slice data challenge: 1 VME crate, 2 VX, 2 CDM (1 VX per CDM), GDM, etc operate as designed
  • GDM-CDM link finalized (data rate frozen, data packet format frozen, data content permitted to change)
  • CDM-VX serial link finalized (data rate frozen, data packet format frozen, data content permitted to change)
  • run control (timestamp reset) and trigger distribution design agreed upon, frozen (list of possible triggers permitted to change)
  • VX to CDM to GDM data flow design agreed upon, frozen (data contents permitted to change)
  • major technical risk items retired (all hardware and firmware is working as expecred without mysteries and surprises, all problems are identified, investigated, resolved, solutions tested)
  • stable operation of CDM-VX serial links in vertical slice system
  • stable operation of GDM to CDM clock in vertical slice system
  • stable operation of CDM to VX clock in vertical slice system
  • vertical slice system assembled (1 VME crate, 2 VX, 2 CDM, 1 GDM, network, FEP, TSP, MIDAS)
