PAS cell 4 microphone signal AI problem #131

Closed JustinLangridge closed 8 years ago

JustinLangridge commented 8 years ago

There looks to be an issue with digitization of the microphone signal for PAS cell 4 (currently labelled cell 5 in UI waveform plot).

Look at the time domain signal with the speaker on and you see a big offset. This shouldn't be there. We've tried digitizing input from other cells into this channel on the FPGA card and they show the same offset. Any thoughts?

Matt could it be that the coupling for the input on this channel is set to DC instead of AC coupling?

JustinLangridge commented 8 years ago

Looked at this from the hardware perspective today and don't think this is a hardware issue. PAS cell top boards that show no offset when digitised on other channels, have a DC offset when put through this AI channel.

It was hardware / wiring / connector not in correctly - close this
