\section { General Description}
2021-12-02 13:29:35 +08:00
The 4410/4412 Urukul card is a 4hp EEM module part of the ARTIQ Sinara family.
2021-11-30 14:17:02 +08:00
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.
2021-12-02 13:29:35 +08:00
4410 Urukul comes with AD9910 chips, while 4412 Urukul comes with AD9912 chips instead.

\section { Example ARTIQ code}
The sections below demonstrate simple usage scenarios of the 4410 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}
2021-12-06 11:53:45 +08:00
Generate a 10MHz sinusoid from RF0 with full scale amplitude, attenuated by 6 dB.
2021-11-30 14:17:02 +08:00
Both the CPLD and the DDS channels should be initialized.
2021-12-07 16:29:35 +08:00
By default, AD9910 single-tone profiles are programmed to profile 7.
2021-11-30 14:17:02 +08:00
\begin { minted} { python}
@kernel
def run(self):
self.core.reset()
self.cpld.init()
self.dds0.init()
self.dds0.cfg_ sw(True)

self.dds0.set_ att(6.*dB)

self.dds0.set(10*MHz)
2021-11-30 14:17:02 +08:00
\end { minted}
If the synchronization feature of AD9910 was enabled, RF signal across different channels of the same Urukul can be synchronized.
2021-12-07 16:20:14 +08:00
For example, phase-coherent RF signal can be produced on both channel 0 and channel 1 after configuring an appropriate phase mode.

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.

The generated RF output of the above example consists of the following features in sequence:
\begin { enumerate}
2021-12-22 17:12:42 +08:00
\item A 5 MHz RF pulse for 2 microseconds.
2021-12-06 11:52:31 +08:00
\item No signal for 1 microseconds.
2021-12-22 17:12:42 +08:00
\item A 5 MHz RF pulse for 1 microseconds.
2021-12-06 11:52:31 +08:00
\item No signal for 3 microseconds.
\item Go back to item 1.
\end { enumerate}
The expected waveform is plotted on the following figure.
2021-12-22 17:14:57 +08:00
Note that phase of the RF pulses may drift gradually.
Urukul was operated with a 50$ \Omega $ termination to produce the waveform.

\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.
\begin { minted} { python}
def prepare(self):
# Reversed Order
self.amp = [1.0, 0.9, 0.8, 0.7, 0.6, 0.5, 0.4, 0.3, 0.2, 0.1, 0.0]
self.asf_ ram = [0] * len(self.amp)
\end { minted}
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 ))) +

\subsection { RAM Synchronization (AD9910 Only)}
2021-12-07 16:26:25 +08:00
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} ).
\begin { minted} { python}
2021-12-22 17:12:42 +08:00
dds.set(frequency=5*MHz, phase=0.0, ram_ destination=RAM_ DEST_ ASF)
2021-12-07 16:26:25 +08:00
\end { minted}
Then, replace the \texttt { run()} function with the following.
\begin { minted} { python}
@kernel
def run(self):
self.core.reset()
self.core.break_ realtime()
self.cpld.init()
self.init_ dds(self.dds0)
self.init_ dds(self.dds1)
self.dds0.set_ phase_ mode(PHASE_ MODE_ TRACKING)
self.dds1.set_ phase_ mode(PHASE_ MODE_ TRACKING)
self.configure_ ram_ mode(self.dds0)
self.configure_ ram_ mode(self.dds1)
\end { minted}
2021-12-22 17:17:03 +08:00
Two phase-coherent RF signal with the same waveform as the previous figure (from either RAM examples) should be generated.
2021-12-07 16:26:25 +08:00
2022-01-05 16:19:16 +08:00
\subsection { Voltage-controlled DDS Amplitude (SU-Servo Only)}
The SU-Servo feature can be enabled by integrating the 4410 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].
\begin { minted} { python}
@kernel
def run(self):
self.core.reset()
self.core.break_ realtime()
self.suservo.init()
self.suservo.set_ pgia_ mu(0, 0) # unity gain
2022-01-07 16:54:29 +08:00
self.suservo.cplds[0].set_ att(0, 15.)
2022-01-05 16:19:16 +08:00
self.channel.set_ y(profile=0, y=0.) # Clear integrator
\end { minted}
Next, setup the PI control as an IIR filter. It has -1 proportional gain $ k _ p $ and no integrator gain $ k _ i $ .
\begin { minted} { python}
self.channel.set_ iir(
profile=0,
adc=0, # take data from Sampler channel 0
kp=-1., # -1 P gain
ki=0./s, # no integrator gain
g=0., # no integrator gain limit
delay=0. # no IIR update delay after enabling
)
\end { minted}
Then, configure the DDS frequency to 10 MHz with 3V input offset.
At input offset voltage, the DDS output amplitude is 0.
\begin { minted} { python}
self.channel.set_ dds(
profile=0,
offset=-.3, # 3V with above PGIA settings
# Note the inverted sign
frequency=10*MHz,
phase=0.)
\end { minted}
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 - 7 V $ with the above IIR filter.
Finally, enable the SU-Servo channel with the IIR filter programmed beforehand.
\begin { minted} { python}
self.channel.set(en_ out=1, en_ iir=1, profile=0)
self.suservo.set_ config(enable=1)
\end { minted}
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 tick num=3,
grid=both,
height=8cm,
width=12cm,
ymin=0, ymax=160, ytick={ 0,16,...,160} , ylabel=DDS RMS Voltage ($ mV _ { rms } $ ),
xmin=-10, xmax=10, xtick={ -10,-8,...,10} , xlabel=Sampler Voltage ($ V $ ),
]
\addplot [blue, samples=21, domain=-10:10] { func(x)} ;
\end { axis}
\end { tikzpicture}
\end { center}
Note: DDS signal should be attenuated. High output power may affect the linearity.
