Seth12345 | I got disconnected before I saw any responses if there were any, but I asked this last night and was wondering if anyone knew now: "Hi, I am trying to port LiteX to the Upduino 2.0 and have the platform/target files about 99% there I think, but I can't figure out the clock. I believe the Upduino 2.0 only has the internal clock unless you connect | 04:14 |
---|---|---|
Seth12345 | the clock output to a pin with a jumper of some sort. I can't figure out how to tell LiteX to use the internal oscillator for a clock signal. Anyone know how to do that? The Upduino 2.0 uses an ICE40UP5k FPGA (same as Icebreaker)" | 04:14 |

_florent_ | just for info, I'm currently wrapping AXI modules from https://github.com/alexforencich/verilog-axi to simplify use in LiteX: https://github.com/enjoy-digital/litex_verilog_axi_test | 10:02 |
_florent_ | this should give us lots of new interesting AXI modules to play with :) | 10:02 |
bentomo | _florent_: Thank you! :) | 10:49 |
leons | _florent_: A small update from my side regarding 10Gbit/s Ethernet. I've finished my thesis now which means I'm going to lose access to the NetFPGA-SUME board which I used to develop on in the near future. Meanwhile the Ethernet stack seemed to work pretty well at the end, and I'm already reusing a Verilog-version of the XGMII to stream bridge at $work (should have some minor fixes to the LiteEth variant ready soon-ish) | 11:00 |
leons | Regarding the development board: do you already have a canonical development / reference board for LiteEth with 10Gbit/s Ethernet support (i.e. SFP+ cages) in mind? | 11:01 |
leons | I still have access to the NetFGPA-SUME for a few days and can take the opportunity to clean up the codebase and create a PR to litex-boards with the transceivers configured, etc. That might be a good starting point for people who'd like to develop this further, but I won't be able to maintain it / test any changes... | 11:02 |
leons | The XEM8320 looks really interesting for that purpose, but it's super pricey :) | 11:06 |

_florent_ | leons: Congrats for your thesis and thanks a lot for your contributions on the project! The Kintex7 boards from Aliexpress are probably the cheapest option to run the 10Gbps Ethernet (~200-300euros). | 12:43 |
leons | _florent_: thanks! can you point me to one of those? | 12:44 |
_florent_ | leons: This would be great to have a PR to LiteX-Boards for the NetFPGA-SUME, as you said, this could be used a reference to enable 10Gbps Ethernet on other boards | 12:44 |
_florent_ | leons: this for example: https://fr.aliexpress.com/item/1005002760455757.html | 12:45 |

_florent_ | I have it, not sure I tested the SFP+ on it, but was able to get the DDR3/1GbpsEthernet/SDCard working IIRC | 12:46 |
leons | It does look really weird :D | 12:46 |
_florent_ | otherwise I have several boards I can use for 10Gbps but those are more expensive (KC705, KCU105, BCU1525, etc...) | 12:47 |
_florent_ | leons: That's the Ali-Express style :) (but pretty sure the designer is very experimented and just want to reduce costs). | 12:48 |
_florent_ | leons: the boards are delivered with examples design to test all the interfaces (SFP, PCIe, DDR3, etc...) | 12:49 |
leons | Yeah, I think the most important thing for me is to eventually get this all working on a board you have access too, to validate changes. But the litex_sim implementation of XGMII seems really as well, so that might just be sufficient to test most of the changes. | 12:49 |
leons | If all goes according to plan I'm going to stay in academia a little longer and might get access to a board with SFP+ in the not too far future, for now I'm not convinced at spending that kind of dough on an FPGA, given that my Arty-A7 seems fine for 95% of what I do :) | 12:51 |
leons | s/seems really/seems really solid | 12:51 |
_florent_ | Sure I understand, the Arty-A7 is also really convenient for most of thing I work on and always on my desk | 12:54 |
_florent_ | leons: Is your thesis published/accessible by the way? I would be curious to read it if so. | 12:55 |
leons | _florent_: I'd like to wait for it to be graded first, then I might upload it somewhere :) | 12:56 |
_florent_ | leons: sure, I was just curious, thanks | 12:57 |

jevinskie[m] | For a dual SFP+ board with pcie but not much else IO there is the gidel HawkEye arria 10. Watch ebay for a week and you’ll usually see them pop up for $140. Get one and help me out with the SFP bringup! :P https://www.ebay.com/itm/265450537532 | 17:11 |

bentomo | _florent_: I GOT A UART PROMOT FIRST TRY! Sadly ddr didn't train but that's probably more likely due to my .5ns misses in timing. XD I was too eager to see if I the soc would even start going in blind. This build suite is nuts. I'm still trying to get through the learning curve | 20:45 |
