Closed marcomeixner closed 4 months ago

marcomeixner commented 11 months ago

Since I am having trouble installing Vivado 2020.1:

Is there a plan to update this repo to Vivado 2023.1 at some point?

Thank you!

Marco

Hello Marco,

Red Pitaya FPGA image was created for Vivado 2020.1 so we do not plan to upgrade to newer Vivado versions anytime soon.

If you are having issues with installing Vivado 2020.1, please use the Full installer (download the big tar.gz file) instead of the web installer (the web installer does not work).

If you want to use Vivado 2023.1 (or another version), you can use the dirty fix described here (the biggest "note"): https://redpitaya.readthedocs.io/en/latest/developerGuide/software/build/fpga/fpga.html#building-process

Sorry for the late reply and thank you for using Red Pitaya.

Hey Miha,

thank you - I do not have issues with Vivado 2020.1 anymore acutally.

Another question that came up concerns documentation:

In the projects from Pavel Demin a C program runs on the Pitaya-ARM, picking up data from the FPGA. The data is then sent via LAN to a Python-Script that runs on my Laptop.

All that works, but I am looking for documentation on how that LAN-communication works exactly. Or ideally a minimal example how to get data from the FPGA to the ARM to the Laptop (and back maybe). I will find out eventually since I have all the scripts - just trying to speed up the process with this email.

Thank you and best wishes! Marco

Hello Marco,

Thank you for the update.

Yes, that seems plausible. Pavel Demin's Alpine version of the OS is not maintained by the Red Pitaya team but by the Red Pitaya SDR community led by Pavel Demin.

I would highly suggest contacting Pavel through either the Alpine GitHub page (https://github.com/pavel-demin/red-pitaya-notes) or the Red Pitaya forum (https://forum.redpitaya.com/).

Good luck with your projects!

Sincerely,

Miha Gjura Technical Specialist
