\section{General Description}
|
|
The 4410/4412 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 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}
|
|
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.

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.
|
|
\begin{minted}{python}

|
|
self.dds1.set(frequency=10*MHz, phase=0.25) # 0.25 turns phase offset
|
|
\end{minted}
|
|
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.

\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.
|
|
|
|
\begin{minted}{python}
|
|
from artiq.coredevice.ad9910 import RAM_MODE_CONT_RAMPUP
|
|
|
|
def prepare(self):
|
|
self.amp = [0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.7, 0.0, 0.7, 0.7] # Reversed Order
|
|
self.asf_ram = [0] * len(self.amp)
|
|
|

self.cpld.io_update.pulse_mu(8)
|
|
self.cpld.set_profile(0) # Enable the corresponding RAM profile
|
|
# Profile 0 is the default
|
|
dds.set_profile_ram(start=0, end=len(self.asf_ram)-1,
|
|
step=250, profile=0, mode=RAM_MODE_CONT_RAMPUP)

self.core.break_realtime()
|
|
dds.set(frequency=5*MHz, ram_destination=RAM_DEST_ASF)
|
|
# Pass osk_enable=1 to set_cfr1() if it is not an amplitude RAM
|
|
dds.set_cfr1(ram_enable=1, ram_destination=RAM_DEST_ASF)
|
|
|
|
self.cpld.io_update.pulse_mu(8)
|
|
|
|
@kernel
|
|
def run(self):
|
|
self.core.reset()
|

self.core.break_realtime()
|
|
self.cpld.init()
|
|
|
|
self.init_dds(self.dds0)
|
|
self.configure_ram_mode(self.dds0)
|
|
\end{minted}
|
|
|
|
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.

\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))) +
|
|
and(\x>=2, \x<3) * (0.1*cos(deg(10*pi*\x))) +
|
|
and(\x>=3, \x<4) * (0.15*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}).
|
|
\begin{minted}{python}
|
|
dds.set(frequency=5*MHz, phase=0.0, ram_destination=RAM_DEST_ASF)
|
|
\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}
|
|
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 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
|
|
self.suservo.cpld0.set_att(0, 15.)
|
|
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 $\leq -7V$ 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.
