Proton Calorimetry/Meetings/2020/08/05

Minutes for UCL Proton Calorimetry Meetings, 5th August

Simon Jolly, Saad Shaikh, Raffaella Radogna, Fern Pannell

Working on FIFO interface between DDC232 data and UART transmitter.
- Using Xilinx FIFO Generator IP but need to debug.
Then need to instantiate processor for DMA from FIFO.
- Tutorial about Vivado IP integrator should give details about processor instantiation and workflow with Vitis.

Managed to simulate FPGA response for blinking LED tutorial
Now on the UART interface tutorial.
Started looking and running Saad's code
Had a meeting with the head of physics department at Sussex university
- Sussex is happy to support fellowship applications for Royal society URF and also suggested to try STFC ERF
- Need to understand with Ruben if UCL will support the URF application
