[Discuss-gnuradio] usrper fails in usb_claim_interface

2005-04-05 Thread Larry Doolittle
Hi - I have an Avnet Virtex 4 evaluation board, intended for projects similar in concept to GNU Radio. It uses the same CY7C68013 chip as USRP. I used USRP as a software reference design, and started splicing in some code of my own. I think that part is in good shape, after coming up to speed o

[Discuss-gnuradio] crude compiler for WaveData

2005-04-15 Thread Larry Doolittle
Guys - I took a first stab at an FX2 WaveData compiler, since I don't touch Microsoft-only software (GPIFTool) with a 3.048 meter pole. This attempt is good enough to recreate the WaveData definition in usrp1_gpif.c from the following "source code": -- cut here -- // GPIF Ctrl Outputs CTL 0

2005-05-09 Thread Larry Doolittle
Hi, everyone! My adaptation of USRP code for a conceptually related (rx-only) project has gone pretty well. I get a reliable 33 MB/s sustained data transfer from the FPGA to the host (same results on an AMD64 desktop and Intel Centrino laptop). The hardware platform is an Avnet Virtex-4 Eval boa
