Hi, In the flow-graphs that use RFNOC blocks for E320 devices, is GRC installed on the Zynq processor on the SOC or a separate PC/host? Thanks Chintan ___ USRP-users mailing list USRP-users@lists.ettus.com http://lists.ettus.com/mailman/listinfo/usrp-us

Re: [USRP-users] How to debug timed commands on FPGA side?

2020-06-10 Thread Chintan Patel via USRP-users
Lukas, There are two broad approaches to debug FPGAs, including the B210: 1. Instantiate chipscope/ILA in the Xilinx tool, and use JTAG to monitor signals. 2. Instrument the code, with debug signals (for e.g, a counter that increments when the fault condition happens) and connect the debug signa

Hi, On the B210 devices which use the AD9361, what is the granularity on the sample rate supported? I know the max sample rate is 61.44MHz, and that the BBPLL that drives the ADC sample clock allows for a varying rates, but I am trying to find what are the values that are actually supported. In ot
