Goals:

• [x] create lab notebook github
• [ ] get ZCU LED demo running -> nearly done but missing some final piece

[badeaa3]

Steps to get test stand functioning

Test stand hardware:

• ZCU102 (maybe cheaper alternative in future). <= $3600
• Xilinx mezzanine (car board in future)
• Linux machine ($1k?)
• (future) scope
• (future) power supply
• (future) Car board <= Euros 1200 -> will include level shifter + pulsers on it

Useful resources:

• Adam’s Spacely-Caribou-Reference slides should get us setup nearly all the way

Install Petalinux on SD card into FPGA:

• fill me in

Connect to FPGA:

• install vivado
• install the drivers for zcu102 using https://docs.amd.com/r/2022.1-English/ug973-vivado-release-notes-install-license/Install-Cable-Drivers
• connect both JTAG and UART cables

Flash the fpga:

• open vivado
• open project. select file /asic/projects/C/CMS_PIX_28/testing/spacely-caribou-common-blocks/ZCU102_LED_Demo_FW/demo2_led.xpr
• on the left hand side: Program and debug -> Open Hardware Manager -> Open Target -> Auto Connect
• on the left hand side: Program and debug -> program device -> xczu9_0 -> program

Setup spacely:

• git clone
• cd /asic/projects/C/CMS_PIX_28/testing/spacely/PySpacely/
• git clone git@github.com:Fermilab-Microelectronics/spacely-asic-config.git
• cd /asic/projects/C/CMS_PIX_28/testing/spacely/PySpacely/requirements
• Create virtual environment with python 3.10 which supports all of the packages inside of the requirements txt files

  export PROJECT_DIR=/asic/projects/C/CMS_PIX_28/testing/
  mkdir -p $PROJECT_DIR/miniconda3
  wget https://repo.anaconda.com/miniconda/Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh -O $PROJECT_DIR/miniconda.sh
  bash $PROJECT_DIR/miniconda.sh -b -u -p $PROJECT_DIR/miniconda3
  rm -rf $PROJECT_DIR/miniconda.sh
  $PROJECT_DIR/miniconda3/bin/conda init bash
  conda create --name spacelyvenv python=3.10
  conda activate spacelyvenv
  pip install -r requirements-py-libs-common.txt
  pip install -r requirements-python.txt

Setup peary:

• On linux machine:
  • git clone https://gitlab.cern.ch/adquinn/peary.git
  • git checkout aq_dev
  • cd ..
  • scp peary petalinux@192.168.1.24:/home/petalinux/
  • download cmake file from https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://github.com/Kitware/CMake/releases/download/v3.29.0-rc4/cmake-3.29.0-rc4-linux-aarch64.sh&ved=2ahUKEwiDlqiZ3dSGAxUy58kDHYVWBRMQFnoECBgQAQ&usg=AOvVaw3ZrpaDb5hiBprq2dVg650P
  • scp cmake-3.29.0-rc4-linux-aarch64.sh petalinux@192.168.1.24:/home/petalinux/
• ssh petalinux@192.168.1.24
  • export PATH=/home/petalinux/cmake-3.29.0-rc4-linux-aarch64/bin/:$PATH
  • cd peary
  • mkdir build
  • cd build
  • cmake -DBUILD_ExampleCaribou=ON -DBUILD_SpacelyCaribouBasic=ON -DBUILD_SMARTPIX28=ON -DBUILD_ZCU102_LED_Demo=ON -DINTERFACE_IIO=OFF -DINTERFACE_MEDIA=OFF -DINTERFACE_I2C=OFF ..
  • make -j4
  • make install
  • sudo ./bin/pearycli

Steps to run ZCU LED demo at end of day:

Terminal 1:

• ssh -k abadea@fasic-137645.fnal.gov

  source ~/.bashrc
  cd /asic/projects/C/CMS_PIX_28/testing/spacely/PySpacely
  conda activate spacelyvenv
  python Spacely.py

Terminal 2:

• ssh -k abadea@fasic-137645.fnal.gov
• ssh petalinux@192.168.1.24
• cd peary/
• sudo ./bin/pearyd

Error (I think has to do with firmware):

• check if we need to reflash with firmware from https://github.com/SpacelyProject/spacely-caribou-common-blocks/tree/main/spi_controller_interface
