Extracting samples after CFO correction
Hello,
I am currently trying to extract the samples after the CFO correction out of Verilog to the processor and to print them to a console or similar. I am using the Zedboard with AD-FMCOMMS3. My first question is, if there is already an easy way to extract those samples? Maybe there is already an interface which I overlooked?
If there is not an interface, what would you consider the easiest way to accomplish my goal?
In Vivado I already created the outputs for everything and connected an AXI DMA:
You can see that I created tdata_rotated, tvalid_rotated and so on. However, I struggle to find an easy way to read the registers on the AXI DMA with C.
I also thought about connecting the newly created pins to the already existing AXI DMA and to change the sdr.c accordingly. But before I try this or more, I would like to hear your opinion about my questions.
The "rotate" instance inside sync_long.v does the CFO correction on IQ sample. You need to consider taking the output of that instance.
Thank you for your answer. I tried adding a AXI DMA in the hardware design with the exact configuration. The DMA is in the device tree of linux and the IRQs are getting registered by the xlnx_dma driver.
So far so good.
However, the interrupts by the new AXI DMA I added are not received by linux (I know for sure that I configured the interrupts in a right way in Linux and the concat block). Through debugging I determined that the configuration of the S_AXI_LITE connection is probably wrong.
So my follow up question is: Where do you set the values for the S_AXI_LITE connection for the DMAs? They are coming out of the axi_interconnect1 block but where are you setting them in your code? I haven't been able to find it.
You can find what have done for the side_ch (fpga module and driver for side channel to extract information from FPGA). You mean the interrupt number in Linux? I do not remember clearly. There might be a fixed offset. You need to check the Zynq ARM manual, and check the relationship of our existing design, such as tx_intf, rx_intf, side_ch. They all have AXI DMA and interrupt.
If you are talking about the base address of registers you add via S_AXI_LITE, you can check/change them in the Vivado block diagram design window. Again, you can learn/check our existing modules.
