Was able to connect to the nalu scientific board using the NaluScope software (manual, download).

Here are the steps I did on Windows 10:

  1. Make Hardware connections
    1. Connect Nalu's HDSoCv1 evalr2 board to the FMC of a Nexys Video A7 board (you can follow the quickstart guide for this step)
    2. Connect a USB to microUSB cable to the Nexys Video A7 board PROG port.
    3. Connect a USB to microUSB cable to the Nexys Video A7 board UART port.
    4. Connect the 12V power adapter to the board's power input.
    5. Switch the board on. You should see lights on both boards (the Nexsys and HDSoC).
  2. Open Vivado to upload bitstream
    1. Go to hardware manager
    2. Autoconnect to the device, you should see something like xc7a200t_0. This is the Nexys board.
    3. Click program device. Select the bitstream (Firmware) downloaded from the manual page, or this link will download it too.
    4. You should see some lights change on both boards, you can see what they mean in the quickstart guide
  3. Open the NaluScope software for use
    1. Choose a working directory
    2. Select model hdsocv1_evalr2
    3. Leave "Use Hardware Server" and "Connect to Board" checked
    4. Under "Connect to Board", select FTDI
      1. There should be 2 devices listed, one for the programming USB and one for the UART usb. Pick the one that has UART in it's name (mine was named AV0KR3DC or something)
    5. Click "Connect" wait ~1 minute
    6. Once you see "Startup successful" click "Continue" at the bottom. A new window should appear

Well, I'm sure I'm connected to the board because I was able to generate these pedestal plots with in naluscope software

They obviously just look like noise centered around some pedestal. I'm currently trying to figure out how to just trigger on some noise so we don't need to input a signal for some testing

11/11/2024 22:22

By setting the trigger source to external, I was able to start a run and activate the autotrigger, which just triggers on a set interval. I generated some events:

In short, things are working so far.

The linux install was much less straightforward due to needing to install the USB to UART drivers.

Here are the steps I followed to reproduce the behavior we had on windows:

  1. Make Hardware connections

    1. Connect Nalu's HDSoCv1 evalr2 board to the FMC of a Nexys Video A7 board (you can follow the quickstart guide for this step)
    2. Connect a USB to microUSB cable to the Nexys Video A7 board PROG port.
    3. Connect a USB to microUSB cable to the Nexys Video A7 board UART port.
    4. Connect the 12V power adapter to the board's power input.
    5. Switch the board on. You should see lights on both boards (the Nexsys and HDSoC).

  2. Open Vivado to upload bitstream

    1. Go to hardware manager
    2. Autoconnect to the device, you should see something like xc7a200t_0. This is the Nexys board.
    3. Click program device. Select the bitstream (Firmware) downloaded from the manual page, or this link will download it too.
    4. You should see some lights change on both boards, you can see what they mean in the quickstart guide

  3. Install NaluScope for Linux

    1. Download latest Linux version off nalu's website
    2. Extract naluscope tar -xzvf naluscope*.tar.gz
    3. Download dependencies:
    sudo apt update
sudo apt install libxcb-cursor0 libxcb-icccm4 libxcb-keysyms1 libxcb-render-util0 libxkbcommon-x11-0
    sudo apt update
sudo apt install libxcb-cursor0 libxcb-icccm4 libxcb-keysyms1 libxcb-render-util0 libxkbcommon-x11-0

    1. Download USB to UART Driver (D2XX Driver)

      1. I had to follow the video install guide to get it to work

    2. The NaluScope Manual suggests installing under home as root, so just mv nalu/ $HOME.

  4. Open the NaluScope software for use

    1. ./$HOME/nalu/nalu (It may complain about not having D3XX Driver, this driver is for USB3 and isn't supported on linux anyways)
    2. Choose a working directory
    3. Select model hdsocv1_evalr2
    4. Leave "Use Hardware Server" and "Connect to Board" checked
    5. Under "Connect to Board", select FTDI
      1. There should be 2 devices listed, one for the programming USB and one for the UART usb. Pick the one that has UART in it's name (mine was named AV0KR3DC or something)
    6. Click "Connect" wait ~1 minute
    7. Once you see "Startup successful" click "Continue" at the bottom. A new window should appear

Was able to connect to the board within python using the naluexamples repository.

Here is how one is able to clone the examples, install the repository, then open a jupyter notebook to view it.

git clone https://github.com/NaluScientific/naluexamples.git
cd naluexamples
sudo apt update
sudo apt install python3-pip
pip3 install jupyter
pip3 install naludaq
pip3 install .
jupyter notebook
git clone https://github.com/NaluScientific/naluexamples.git
cd naluexamples
sudo apt update
sudo apt install python3-pip
pip3 install jupyter
pip3 install naludaq
pip3 install .
jupyter notebook

From there I tried running examples/basic_uart_readout.ipynb. I had to change the following line

model, ser_no, baud = 'aodsoc_aods', 'B308B', 2_000_000 # AODS version
model, ser_no, baud = 'aodsoc_aods', 'B308B', 2_000_000 # AODS version

to

model, ser_no, baud = 'hdsocv1_evalr2', 'AV0KR3DC', 2_000_000 # AODS version
model, ser_no, baud = 'hdsocv1_evalr2', 'AV0KR3DC', 2_000_000 # AODS version

and I was able to initialize the board

I ran into an error relating to:

        ControlRegisters(BOARD).write('testmode', False)
        ControlRegisters(BOARD).write('testmode', False)

claiming a key error; I.e. I don't think this board has a "testmode" control register. I'll need to do some digging to find the appropriate registers for the board.

For some reason connection over UART is very finnicky on Linux. The UART connection will randomly dissapear. To regain it I have to unplug the connectiona and plug it back in. Then do

sudo rmmod ftdi-sio
sudo rmmod usbserial
sudo rmmod ftdi-sio
sudo rmmod usbserial

After this it will appear as an option when naludaq tries to find it.

I modified the readout function in naluexamples basic_uart_readout.ipynb:

def readout_buffer(windows=2, lookback=2, amount=2, testmode=True) -> bytearray:
    """Readout data by filling the buffer and then reading it.
    
    This means reading out more data that the serailbuffer can hold will be discarded.
    
    Args:
        windows (int): Number of windows to readout.
        lookback (int): Number of windows to lookback.
        amount (int): Number of events to readout.
        testmode (bool): If True, readout will readout ASIC test pattern.

    Returns:
        bytearray: Data readout.
    """
    if amount > 10:
        print("amount too large, setting amount to 10")
        amount = 10
    _rc = get_readout_controller(BOARD)
    _bc = get_board_controller(BOARD)
    with BOARD:
        print("Control Registers:", ControlRegisters(BOARD).list())
        print()
        print("Digital Registers:", DigitalRegisters(BOARD).list())
        print()
        #ControlRegisters(BOARD).write('testmode', False)
        #DigitalRegisters(BOARD).write('enabletestpatt', testmode)
        while BOARD.connection.in_waiting:
            BOARD.connection.reset_input_buffer()
        _rc.number_events_to_read(amount)
        _rc.set_readout_channels(list(range(4)))
        _rc.set_read_window(windows=windows, lookback=lookback, write_after_trig=16)

        _bc.start_readout(trig='imm', lb='forced', readoutEn=True, singleEv=True)

        time.sleep(1*amount)

        _bc.stop_readout()

        print(f"Bytes in buffer: {BOARD.connection.in_waiting}")
        _data = BOARD.connection.read_all()
    return _data
def readout_buffer(windows=2, lookback=2, amount=2, testmode=True) -> bytearray:
    """Readout data by filling the buffer and then reading it.

    """
    if amount > 10:
        print("amount too large, setting amount to 10")
        amount = 10
    _rc = get_readout_controller(BOARD)
    _bc = get_board_controller(BOARD)
    with BOARD:
        print("Control Registers:", ControlRegisters(BOARD).list())
        print()
        print("Digital Registers:", DigitalRegisters(BOARD).list())
        print()
        #ControlRegisters(BOARD).write('testmode', False)
        #DigitalRegisters(BOARD).write('enabletestpatt', testmode)
        while BOARD.connection.in_waiting:
            BOARD.connection.reset_input_buffer()
        _rc.number_events_to_read(amount)
        _rc.set_readout_channels(list(range(4)))
        _rc.set_read_window(windows=windows, lookback=lookback, write_after_trig=16)

        _bc.start_readout(trig='imm', lb='forced', readoutEn=True, singleEv=True)

        time.sleep(1*amount)

        _bc.stop_readout()

        print(f"Bytes in buffer: {BOARD.connection.in_waiting}")
        _data = BOARD.connection.read_all()
    return _data

Note that I commented out

        #ControlRegisters(BOARD).write('testmode', False)
        #DigitalRegisters(BOARD).write('enabletestpatt', testmode)
        #ControlRegisters(BOARD).write('testmode', False)
        #DigitalRegisters(BOARD).write('enabletestpatt', testmode)

as no such registers exist for the HDSoC board.

Then we call the function like so

_data = readout_buffer(windows=2, lookback=2, amount=2, testmode=True)
_data = readout_buffer(windows=2, lookback=2, amount=2, testmode=True)

This way it doesn't error out:

Bytes in buffer: 0

But I end up readout 0 bytes. The line

        _bc.start_readout(trig='imm', lb='forced', readoutEn=True, singleEv=True)
        _bc.start_readout(trig='imm', lb='forced', readoutEn=True, singleEv=True)

is supposed to force a trigger, but it doesn't seem to be working(?). I think sending some message to nalu would be useful.
