@ak-fau any news following the comments made on this PR ?

ghost commented 3 years ago

There is still no news from CologneChip. Thus, this has to wait.

ak-fau commented 3 years ago

I sent a reminder to CologneChip a few minutes ago, let's see if/when they have any updates to the documentation.

ak-fau commented 3 years ago

CologneChip replied within 3 hours, wow! Their reply came from the same Mr.U... cited above.

They have experienced a significant delay with a tapeout of the final version and haven't got to the documentation update yet. The final silicon is expected in early January. Updated documentation will be available at some date between now and January. Then we will be able to proceed with this and two linked PRs.

Quotation from Mr. U... e-mail (unrelated paragraphs are edited out):

Due to very long delays for the final mask tapeout, we did not get around to updating the documentation as planned. Fortunately, all the data is now at Globalfoundries so that we can now concentrate more on the documentation and will prioritize your concerns. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience. The situation turned out to be very unsuitable for us, too.

Unfortunately the pinout had to be changed slightly. We are still waiting for feedback and information from our packager. I would ask you to wait with hardware manufacturing until we have the data, so that you guys can continue on the pull request.

The hardware manufacturing he is referring to is the module I'm working on: GMM-7550
