\section{General Description}
The 4410/4412 DDS Urukul card is a 4hp EEM module part of the ARTIQ Sinara family.
It adds frequency generation capabilities to carrier cards such as 1124 Kasli and 1125 Kasli-SoC.
It provides 4 channels of DDS at 1GS/s.
Output frequency from \textless 1 to \textgreater 400 MHz are supported.
The nominal maximum output power of each channel is 10dBm.
Each channel can be attenuated from 0 to -31.5 dB by a digital attenuator.
RF switches (1ns temporal resolution) on each channel provides 70 dB isolation.
4410 DDS Urukul comes with AD9910 chips, while 4412 DDS Urukul comes with AD9912 chips instead.

The RMS voltage of a 4410 DDS Urukul channel at different amplitude scale factor is measured.
The DDS channel is directly connected to an oscilloscope with a 50\textOmega~termination.
The reported values are obtained from the oscilloscope.

The expected RMS voltage is described by the linear function $V_\mathrm{rms,exp}(\mathrm{ASF})=\frac{V_\mathrm{rms}(0.1)}{0.1}*\mathrm{ASF}$.
The measured RMS voltage divided by the full scale expected RMS voltage (i.e. $V_\mathrm{rms,exp}(1)$) is shown below.

\section{Urukul Mode Configurations}
Mode of operation is specified by a DIP switch.

\section{Urukul 1-EEM/2-EEM Modes}
4410/4412 DDS Urukul can operate with either 1 or 2 EEM connections.
It is in 1-EEM mode when only EEM0 is connected, 2-EEM mode when both EEM0 \& EEM1 are connected.
2-EEM mode provides these additional features in comparison to 1-EEM mode.
\begin{itemize}
\item 1 ns temporal resolution RF switches \\
Without EEM1, the only way to access the switches is through the CPLD using SPI. \\
With EEM1, RF switches can be controlled as a TTL output through the LVDS transceiver.
1 ns temporal resolution is achieved using the ARTIQ RTIO system.
\item SU-Servo (4410 DDS Urukul feature) \\
SU-Servo requires both EEM0 \& EEM1 to control multiple DDS channels simultaneously using the QSPI interface.
\end{itemize}
\newpage
\section{Example ARTIQ code}
The sections below demonstrate simple usage scenarios of the 4410/4412 DDS Urukul card with the ARTIQ control system.
They do not exhaustively demonstrate all the features of the ARTIQ system.
The full documentation for the ARTIQ software and gateware is available at \url{https://m-labs.hk}.
\subsection{10 MHz Sinusoidal Wave}
Generate a 10MHz sinusoid from RF0 with full scale amplitude, attenuated by 6 dB.
Both the CPLD and the DDS channels should be initialized.
By default, AD9910 single-tone profiles are programmed to profile 7.
\inputcolorboxminted{firstline=11,lastline=18}{examples/dds.py}
If the synchronization feature of AD9910 was enabled, RF signal across different channels of the same Urukul can be synchronized.
For example, phase-coherent RF signal can be produced on both channel 0 and channel 1 after configuring an appropriate phase mode.
\inputcolorboxminted{firstline=28,lastline=43}{examples/dds.py}
Note that the phase difference between the 2 channels might not be exactly 0.25 turns, but it is a constant.
It can be negated by adjusting the \texttt{phase} parameter.
\newpage
\subsection{Periodic RF pulse (AD9910 Only)}
This examples demonstrates that the RF signal can be modulated by amplitude using the RAM modulation feature of AD9910.
By default, RAM profiles are programmed to profile 0.
\inputcolorboxminted{firstline=53,lastline=91}{examples/dds.py}
The generated RF output of the above example consists of the following features in sequence:
\begin{enumerate}
\item A 5 MHz RF pulse for 2 microseconds.
\item No signal for 1 microseconds.
\item A 5 MHz RF pulse for 1 microseconds.
\item No signal for 3 microseconds.
\item Go back to item 1.
\end{enumerate}
The expected waveform is plotted on the following figure.
Note that phase of the RF pulses may drift gradually.
Urukul was operated with a 50$\Omega$ termination to produce the waveform.

\end{tikzpicture}
\subsection{Simple Amplitude Ramp (AD9910 Only)}
An amplitude ramp of an RF signal can be generated by modifying the \texttt{self.amp} array in the previous example.
\inputcolorboxminted{firstline=95,lastline=98}{examples/dds.py}
The generated RF output has an incrementing amplitude scale factor (ASF), increasing by 0.1 at every microsecond.
Once the ASF reaches 1.0, it drops back to 0.0 at the next microsecond.
The expected waveform over 1 cycle is plotted on the following figure.
Note that phase of the RF pulses may drift gradually.
Urukul was operated with a 50$\Omega$ termination to produce the waveform.
\begin{tikzpicture}[
declare function={
func(\x)= and(\x>=0, \x<1) * (0) +
and(\x>=1, \x<2) * (0.05*cos(deg(10*pi*\x))) +

\newpage
\subsection{RAM Synchronization (AD9910 Only)}
Multiple RAM channels can also be synchronized.
Similar to the 10 MHz single-tone RF signals, specify \texttt{phase} when calling \texttt{dds.set()} in \texttt{configure\char`_ram\char`_mode}.
For example, set phase to 0 for the channels (\texttt{phase=0.0}).
\inputcolorboxminted{firstline=116,lastline=116}{examples/dds.py}
Then, replace the \texttt{run()} function with the following.
\inputcolorboxminted{firstline=122,lastline=134}{examples/dds.py}
Two phase-coherent RF signal with the same waveform as the previous figure (from either RAM examples) should be generated.
\subsection{Voltage-controlled DDS Amplitude (SU-Servo Only)}
The SU-Servo feature can be enabled by integrating the 4410 DDS Urukul with a 5108 Sampler.
Amplitude of the DDS output can be controlled by the ADC input of the Sampler through PI control, characterised by the following transfer function.
\[H(s)=k_p+\frac{k_i}{s+\frac{k_i}{g}}\]
In the following example, the amplitude of DDS is proportional to the ADC input from Sampler.
First, initialize the RTIO, SU-Servo and its channel.
Note that the programmable gain of the Sampler is $10^0=1$, the input range is [-10V, 10V].
\inputcolorboxminted{firstline=10,lastline=17}{examples/suservo.py}
Next, setup the PI control as an IIR filter. It has -1 proportional gain $k_p$ and no integrator gain $k_i$.
\inputcolorboxminted{firstline=18,lastline=25}{examples/suservo.py}
Then, configure the DDS frequency to 10 MHz with 3V input offset.
When input voltage $\geq$ offset voltage, the DDS output amplitude is 0.
\inputcolorboxminted{firstline=26,lastline=30}{examples/suservo.py}
SU-Servo encodes the ADC voltage in a linear scale [-1, 1].
Therefore, 3V is converted to 0.3.
Note that the ASF of all DDS channels are capped at 1.0, the amplitude clips when ADC input $\leq -7V$ with the above IIR filter.
Finally, enable the SU-Servo channel with the IIR filter programmed beforehand.
\inputcolorboxminted{firstline=32,lastline=33}{examples/suservo.py}
A 10 MHz DDS signal is generated from the example above, with amplitude controllable by ADC.
The RMS voltage of the DDS channel against the ADC voltage is plotted.
The DDS channel is terminated with 50\textOmega.
\begin{center}
\begin{tikzpicture}[
declare function={
func(\x)= and(\x>=-10, \x<-7) * (160) +
and(\x>=-7, \x<3) * (16*(3-x)) +
and(\x>=3, \x<10) * (0);
}
]
\begin{axis}[
axis x line=middle, axis y line=middle,
every axis x label/.style={
at={(axis description cs:0.5,-0.1)},
anchor=north,
},
every axis y label/.style={
at={(ticklabel* cs:1.05)},
anchor=south,
},
minor x tick num=3,
grid=both,
height=8cm,
width=12cm,
ymin=-5, ymax=180, ytick={0,16,...,160}, ylabel=DDS RMS Voltage ($mV_{rms}$),
xmin=-10, xmax=10, xtick={-10,-8,...,10}, xlabel=Sampler Voltage ($V$),
]
\addplot[very thick, blue, samples=21, domain=-10:10]{func(x)};
\end{axis}
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{center}
DDS signal should be attenuated.
High output power affects the linearity due to the 1 dB compression point of the amplifier at 13 dBm output power.
15 dB attenuation at the digital attenuator was applied in this example.
\section{Ordering Information}
To order, please visit \url{https://m-labs.hk} and select the 4410 DDS Urukul in the ARTIQ Sinara crate configuration tool.
The default chip is AD9910 (4410 DDS Urukul), which supports more features.
If you need the higher frequency resolution of the AD9912 (4412 DDS Urukul), leave us a note when placing the order.
To enable SU-Servo feature between 4410 Urukul and 5108 Sampler, specify that SU-Servo is to be integrated into the gateware when placing the order.
The cards may also be ordered separately by writing to \url{mailto:sales@m-labs.hk}.
