\section{General Description}
|
||||
The 2118 BNC-TTL card is a 8hp EEM module, while the 2128 SMA-TTL card is a 4hp EEM module.
|
||||
Both TTL cards add general-purpose digital I/O capabilities to carrier cards such as 1124 Kasli and 1125 Kasli-SoC.
|
||||
|
||||
Each card provides two banks of four digital channels each, with BNC (2118) or SMA (2128) connectors.
|
||||
Each bank has individual ground isolation.
|
||||
The direction (input or output) of each bank can be selected using DIP switches.
|
||||
Each channel supports 50\textOmega~terminations individually controllable using DIP switches.
|
||||
Outputs tolerate short circuits indefinitely.
|
||||
The card support a minimum pulse width of 3ns.

|
||||
|

Each cards provides two banks of four digital channels for a total of eight digital channels, with corresponding connectors, respectively either BNC (2118) or SMA (2128). Each bank possesses individual ground isolation. The direction (input or output) of each bank can be selected using DIP switches, and applies to all four channels of the bank.

\section{Electrical Specifications}
|
||||
All specifications are in $0\degree C \leq T_A \leq 70\degree C$ unless otherwise noted.
|
||||
Specifications are based on the bus transceivers IC (SN74BCT25245DW\footnote{\label{transceiver}https://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/sn74bct25245.pdf})
|
||||
and the isolator IC (SI8651BB-B-IS1\footnote{\label{isolator}https://www.skyworksinc.com/-/media/Skyworks/SL/documents/public/data-sheets/si865x-datasheet.pdf}).
|
||||
The typical value of minimum pulse width is based on test results\footnote{\label{sinara187}https://github.com/sinara-hw/sinara/issues/187}.
|
||||
Specifications were derived based on the datasheets of the bus transceiver IC (SN74BCT25245DW\footnote{\label{transceiver}\url{https://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/sn74bct25245.pdf}}) and the isolator IC (SI8651BB-B-IS1\footnote{\label{isolator}\url{https://www.skyworksinc.com/-/media/Skyworks/SL/documents/public/data-sheets/si865x-datasheet.pdf}}).

The red trace shows the DDS generator input pulses. The blue trace shows the measured signal from the output BNC-TTL. Note that the first red pulse failed to reach the 2.1V threshold required by TTL and was not propagated. The first blue (output) pulse is the result of the second red (input) pulse, of 3ns width, which propagated correctly.

\section{Configuring IO Direction \& Termination}
|
||||
The termination and IO direction can be configured by switches.
|
||||
The per-channel termination and per-bank IO direction switches are found at the middle-left and middle-right of both cards respectively.
|
||||
|
||||
Termination switches selects the termination of each channel, between high impedence (OFF) and 50\textOmega~(ON).
|
||||
IO direction and termination must be configured by setting physical switches on the board. The termination switches are found on the middle-left and the IO direction switches on the middle-right of both cards. Termination switches select between high impedance (\texttt{OFF}) and 50\textOmega~(\texttt{ON}). Note that termination switches are by-channel but IO direction switches are by-bank.
|
||||
|
||||
IO direction switches partly decides the IO direction of each bank.
|
||||
\begin{itemize}
|
||||
\itemsep0em
|
||||
\item Closed switch (ON) \\
|
||||
Fix the corresponding bank to output. The direction cannot be changed by I\textsuperscript{2}C.
|
||||
\item Opened switch (OFF) \\
|
||||
Switch to input mode. The direction is input by default. Configurable by I\textsuperscript{2}C.
|
||||
\item IO direction switch closed (\texttt{ON}) \\
|
||||
Fixes the corresponding bank to output. The IO direction cannot be changed by I\textsuperscript{2}C.
|
||||
\item IO direction switch open (OFF) \\
|
||||
The corresponding bank is set to input by default. IO direction \textit{can} be changed by I\textsuperscript{2}C.

\subsection{Sub-coarse-RTIO-cycle pulse}
|
||||
With the use of the ARTIQ RTIO, only 1 event can be enqueued per coarse RTIO cycle, which is typically 8ns.
|
||||
Therefore, to emit a pulse that is less than 8ns, additional delay is needed such that the \texttt{ttl.on()} \& \texttt{ttl.off()} event are submitted at different coarse RTIO cycles.
|
||||
The TTL pulse must satisfy the minimum pulse width stated in the electircal specifications.
|
||||
With the use of ARTIQ RTIO, only one event can be enqueued per \textit{coarse RTIO cycle}, which typically corresponds to 8ns. To emit pulses of less than 8ns, careful timing is needed to ensure that the \texttt{ttl.on()} \& \texttt{ttl.off()} event are submitted during different coarse RTIO cycles.

\subsection{Edge counting in a 1ms window}
|
||||
The \texttt{TTLInOut} class implements \texttt{gate\char`_rising()}, \texttt{gate\char`_falling()} \& \texttt{gate\char`_both()} for rising edge, falling edge, both rising edge \& falling edge detection respectively.
|
||||
The channel should be configured as input in both the gateware and hardware. Invoke one of the 3 methods to start edge detection.

Once the threshold is exceeded, an \texttt{RTIOOverflow} exception will be triggered when the input events are read by the kernel CPU.
|

Finally, invoke \texttt{count()} to retrieve the edge count from the input gate.
|

|
||||
The RTIO system can report at most 1 edge detection event for every coarse RTIO cycle.
|
||||
For example, to guarantee all rising edges are counted (with \texttt{gate\char`_rising()} invoked), the theoretical minimum separation between rising edges is 1 coarse RTIO cycle (typically 8 ns) with consideration of the RTIO specification alone.
|

However, both the electircal specifications and the possibility of triggering \texttt{RTIOOverflow} should be considered.

\subsection{Edge counting using \texttt{EdgeCounter}}
|
||||
This example code uses the gateware counter to substitute the software counter, which has a maximum count rate of approximately 1 million events per second.
|
||||
If the gateware counter is enabled on the TTL channel, it can typically count up to 125 million events per second:

Edges are detected by comparing the current input state and that of the previous coarse RTIO cycle.
|
||||
Therefore, the theoretical minimum separation between 2 opposite edges is 1 coarse RTIO cycle (typically 8 ns).

\subsection{62.5 MHz clock signal generation}
|
||||
A TTL channel can be configured as a \texttt{ClockGen} channel, which generates a periodic clock signal.
|
||||
Each channel has a phase accumulator operating on the RTIO clock, where it is incremented by the frequency tuning word at each coarse RTIO cycle.
|
||||
Therefore, jitter should be expected when the desired frequency cannot be obtained by dividing the coarse RTIO clock frequency with a power of 2. \\

\subsection{Minimum Sustained Event Separation}
|
||||
The minimum sustained event separation is the least amount of time separation between input gated events, in which all gated edges can be continuously \& reliabily timestamped by the RTIO system without causing \texttt{RTIOOverflow} exceptions.
|
||||
The following \texttt{run()} function finds the separation by approximating the time of running \texttt{timestamp\char`_mu()} as a constant. Import the \texttt{time} library to use \texttt{time.sleep()}.

seem a bit strange to use "corresponding" and "respectively" next to each together, perhaps "with corresponding connectors, either BNC (2118) or SMA (2128)" ?
