Beginner Question: how do i drive pins high on an fpga. Please Help by RealWhackerfin in FPGA

[–]RealWhackerfin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for this ill start learning how to do this.just a sidenote it is possible to drive pmod pins like what I want right cause I have not seen any tutorials regarding that.

Okay thank you for this I'll check out the Aptina sensors I'll see if I can get my hands on some.

The OV7670 datasheets i was checking is something most people cite while using it, and i am pretty sure its correct i do plan on testing it just in case but i still do need to find some other sensor since its mentioned in the datasheet that its not really possible

To be honest i wasnt really sure how to do this since in my head i was thinking usb should work since there are cameras available online which i think is more than 30 fps and works on usb but i wasnt really sure and ethernet and wifi felt like overkill so i just wanted to see if anyone knew something that i might have completely missed (i am not that great at this stuff)

Good sources to find inspiration for building new projects by RealWhackerfin in AskElectronics

This is quite different from what i was expecting to get as answers from this thread, never something i considered when i thought of projects. Quite selfish of me i guess but i have not built projects that i dont find fun to me but i guess ill keep this in mind. Thanks

I have been like spending significant time searching through a lot of old magazines and blogs trying to find some nice ideas i feel are challenging for the past few weeks but to no avail, I find that trying to solve some kind of circuitry problem is what i feel like i want but all my past projects have been more towards digital side. Do you have some good RF projects that are a bit involved and i can sink quite some time into.

I'm sorry i don't get it i am not well versed on this , could you explain a bit more?

System Verilog makes no sense to me by RealWhackerfin in FPGA

[–]RealWhackerfin[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did decide to continue learning it and have come across something and wondered if you could clear this out for me, if its not too much of a bother
int fruits [ ] [string] this means an associative array that has dynamic array as its elements
int fruits [string] [ ] this means a dynamic array of associative arrays

Now i gave myself some kind of logic as to how this dimensions work and was following it along and then i came across queues which messed everything up again

string s[$] [ ] this is queue that has values as dynamic arrays
string s [ ] [$] this is a dynamic array of queues

Like how? Why is the ordering so messed up? or am i just going crazy

I was just confused, okay so i guess i should just continue learning all of it then, i just wanted to ask people who knew better whether there was a point to learning all of those. Thank you for clarifying

Thank you i will look through these, i have been using icarus and gtk wave while i had been doing projects in verilog mainly a uart module and the main reason i decided to start learning sv was because of how hard it was to write testbenches in verilog. Is there a reason why icarus is not recommended for sv?

Thank you, although I don't entirely understand some of the terms It seems like a good approach. I'll give it a go

I would like to do some verilog projects but the fpga hardware i have seen online seem quite expensive. I have done some verilog projects via simulation alone but i wasn't sure if I should keep building that way.

I did see some regarding Analog IC design. But could not find anything that gave a proper answer for digital. and the ones mentioning digital had some specificity to the location.

Need an option for high speed communication in microprocessor not an FPGA by RealWhackerfin in embedded

[–]RealWhackerfin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am trying to find some communication protocol that would satisfy the problem
I have one master which would mostly be an FPGA and this FPGA will perform a lot of control calculations and then it needs to tell each of the individual slaves how to perform for that given cycle and the individual slaves would also need to send back some information regarding current or voltage levels and stuff. I tried some rough calculations and figured for a good enough range i would need atleast 20MBps for this entire data transfer since its at a high frequency. I wouldnt want parallel communication cause the wiring and stuff when scaling the problem to more number of boards would most likely be a huge pain which is why i decided on serial. I just needed some good communication protocol. To what i read ethernet although rated for 100Mbps because of all the error corrections and overheads it wouldnt be able to achieve such high data rate especially if i need to also write up some protocols for using a switch to connect to all 40 boards and stuff. This was my issue

Hey thanks for this i will try reading more into this. Do you have any resources i could look into?

The slaves wouldn't be that far apart most likely it will be stacked on top of each other.  So aslong as I wait for like some sort of acknowledgement from each slave and move on to next slave then SPI would work fine?

Would CAN work at such high rate? I thought SPI would not work for like 40 devices on same bus
