Humpback DDS

MQTT-controlled 4-channel DDS signal generator using Urukul, Humpback and STM32 NUCLEO.

Nix commands

Start nix shell before anything.

nix-shell

(For users who had completed the networking setup) Flash firmware onto STM32 NUCLEO-H743ZI2 using OpenOCD.

openocd -f openocd/openocd.cfg -f openocd/main.cfg

(For users who had completed the networking setup) Alternatively, an equivalent Nix command can also do the work.

openocd-flash

Networking Setup for First-time User

Provide them to setup Humpback-DDS:

  • IP Address of Humpback-DDS
  • Bit length of the LAN prefix
  • MAC Address of Humpback-DDS
  • IP Address of MQTT broker
  • Device name of Humpback-DDS

Note:

  • IP/MAC address of Humpback-DDS should be unique inside a local area network.
  • Device name should be unique among all Humpback-DDS connected to the same MQTT broker.
  • The MQTT broker must accept TCP connection at port 1883.

Use the following Nix command.

openocd-flash-customised <client_cidr_ip_addr> <mac_addr> <broker_addr> "<name>"

Parameters:

  • client_cidr_ip_addr: IP address for the Humpback-DDS device, in CIDR notation
  • mac_addr: MAC address for the Humpback-DDS device
  • broker_addr: IP address for the MQTT broker
  • name: Device name of the Humpback-DDS

Example

openocd-flash-customised 192.168.1.200/24 AC:6F:7A:DE:D6:C8 192.168.1.125 "Urukul"

The device will be named Urukul.
It has 192.168.1.200 as IPv4 Address, inside a /24 network, with AC:6F:7A:DE:D6:C8 as MAC address.
It will connect to a MQTT broker at 192.168.1.125:1883.

MQTT Broker

Mosquitto is within the Nix package. Starting a Mosquitto MQTT broker can be as simple as the following line.

mosquitto

The MQTT broker will be started locally, at port 1883.

To enable feedback from the device, subscribe to all subtopics under Urukul/Feedback on a separate terminal.

mosquitto_sub -h <broker ip address> -t Urukul/Feedback/#

Note that subscription to the feedback topic is completely optional.

Publishing MQTT messages through Mosquitto

Controlling Humpback-DDS can be achieved by sending specific MQTT commands through Mosquitto. The device will listen to all publishes that are under the Urukul/Control or /Urukul/Control topic. A MQTT message can be published by the following command.

mosquitto_pub -h <broker ip address> -t <topic> -m <message>

For example, to publish a local MQTT broker, with the topic of Foo/Bar and Baz as the message, enter this command.

mosquitto_pub -h localhost -t Foo/Bar -m "Baz"

Note that MQTT topics are case-sensitive.
Alternatively, the following nix command provided by the shell simplify the syntax.

publish-mqtt <topic> <message>

This will send the MQTT message to a local MQTT broker at port 1883, with specified topic and message. The example above can be simplified into:

publish-mqtt Foo/Bar "baz"

List of Commands

All currently supported commands are listed below.
Note: The following table only lists the subtopic. To make a full topic, add Urukul/Control/ in front of all subtopics.

Reset the device

  • Topic: Urukul/Control/Reset
  • Message: (Don't care)

The Reset command resets the device. The effects are:

  • Turn off all RF switches.
  • Set attenuations to be 31.5 dB for all attenuators.
  • Set Urukul clock source to be the internal oscillator, with 100MHz.
  • Set Urukul clock divider to 4.
  • Reset all 4 DDS chips.

Example

publish-mqtt Urukul/Control/Reset

This resets the device.

RF Switch

  • Topic: Urukul/Control/Channel<ch_num>/Switch
    • ch_num: The channel number, from 0 to 3.
  • Message: <off/on>

This command turns off/on an RF switch of a channel.

Example

publish-mqtt Urukul/Control/Channel0/Switch "on"

This turns on the channel 0 RF switch.

Attenuator

  • Topic: Urukul/Control/Channel<ch_num>/Attenuator
    • ch_num: The channel number, from 0 to 3.
  • Message: <atten> [dB]
    • atten: Attenuation of the attenuator of the specified channel. The unit dB is optional. Valid attenuation is within [0, 31.5] (inclusive) in decibel.

Example

publish-mqtt Urukul/Control/Channel0/Attenuator "20 dB"

This sets the attenuation of the channel 0 attenuator to be 20 dB.

Urukul Clock Tree
