pepijndevos_ZirconiumX, do you think it'd make sense to generate decoupling caps for every IC in the netlist?10:43
ZirconiumXpepijndevos_: Sure it would10:44

pepijndevos_What kind of person expects you to put a decoupling cap and put the vcc and gnd as far appart as possible...12:56
ZirconiumXpepijndevos_: Somebody who wants you to attach it to one of the pins, rather than both :P13:07
tntI've seen entire boards with the cap soldered direction onto the IC pins, on top of the IC itself.13:08
tnts/direction/directly/13:08
sorearlove me a 1-terminal capacitor13:23
pepijndevos_ZirconiumX, https://imgur.com/a/PlAjAOE only thing left to do is check if the generated connections make sense and ad text.13:34

pepijndevos_Not yet sure wha exactly to write. I don't have a fancy nickname like you so it'd be pepijn de vos and ZirconiumX. I also tend to use leftover PCBs as buisiness cards... although I have plenty by now13:36
ZirconiumXpepijndevos_: Feel free to use my real name if you think it fits better :P13:37
pepijndevos_ZirconiumX, something like this? https://imgur.com/oX93M9U13:45
tpbTitle: Imgur: The magic of the Internet (at imgur.com)13:45
ZirconiumX:P13:45
ZirconiumXSure13:45
pepijndevos_How am I ever going to check any of this is correct...13:47
pepijndevos_eeeeh, at least these decoupling caps are the worst... rerouting...13:50
pepijndevos_I'm so glad this thing will only run at a few khz, I don't want to find out all my traces are too long.14:03
ZirconiumXIt really does not matter, pepijndevos_14:03
ZirconiumXOnly if you're at the hundreds of MHz does it matter14:04
pepijndevos_So what limits the speed of a 74xx CPU then? Pretty much all of them seem to run in the low mhz numbers.14:05
ZirconiumXpepijndevos_: The C74-6502 runs at 20MHz14:07
ZirconiumXBut mostly it's propagation delay in the ICs themselves14:07
ZirconiumXWell, propagation delay plus switching speed14:08
ZirconiumXAC logic is faster than AHC logic, which is faster than HC logic14:09
pepijndevos_I figured longer traces -> more inductance, capacitive loading -> bad things, but I guess not quite as bad as I thought.14:09
ZirconiumXAHC has shorter propagation delay, but the switching speeds of AHC and HC are about the same14:09
pepijndevos_I should look up the differences between those families14:09
pepijndevos_"Over 40 different logic subfamilies use this standardized part number schem"14:11
tntSo, what does that board do ?14:12
pepijndevos_fade the LED XD14:13
pepijndevos_It's more of a PoC that synthesis works, before I order a huge CPU board and find all the logic is backwards14:14

pepijndevos_How can I eecute a command *before* a script?19:57
pepijndevos_If I do yosys -p something -s script -p something it does script something something19:57
daveshahHow about -p "something; script script.ys; something"19:58
pepijndevos_ah ok, lemme try19:59
pepijndevos_yay!20:00
pepijndevos_I can compile VHDL to 78xx!!!20:00
pepijndevos_Although... would it not make sense to have paths in scripts be relative to the script location?20:01
pepijndevos_I'm running a script from another directory and all the paths break20:02
daveshahDepends what you are doing20:02
pepijndevos_I guess you want both...20:03
daveshahPaths relative to the current directory sounds pretty conventional (e.g. a shell script)20:03
pepijndevos_yea, but often times at least in python scripts you seen funny hacks to get the path of the current script and then get the basedir from that to have script-relative paths20:03
pepijndevos_Basically my problem is that ZirconiumX made this beatiful script to synthesize to 74xx, but basically iy only works if you're in a subdir of the repo itself. Is there any way to package it in a more reusable way?20:05
daveshahThere might be some way of doing it with the Tcl API20:06
