= WARP v3 AD Controller (w3_ad_controller) = This core implements an SPI master for reading/writing registers in the AD9963 analog converters on the WARP v3 board. The w3_ad_controller core is packaged as a pcore which can instantiated in an XPS project. The design has been tested in hardware using Xilinx ISE 13.4. == Hardware == The MHS snippet below shows the w3_ad_controller instantiation used in the WARP v3 reference projects. The memory address is intentionally invalid; you must run "Generate Addresses" after adding the core. {{{ #!sh #Top level ports ... # AD9963 ADC/DAC control pins (RFA & RFB) PORT RFA_AD_spi_cs_n_pin = RFA_AD_spi_cs_n, DIR = O PORT RFA_AD_spi_sdio = RFA_AD_spi_sdio, DIR = IO PORT RFA_AD_spi_sclk_pin = RFA_AD_spi_sclk, DIR = O PORT RFA_AD_reset_n_pin = RFA_AD_reset_n, DIR = O PORT RFB_AD_spi_cs_n_pin = RFB_AD_spi_cs_n, DIR = O PORT RFB_AD_spi_sdio = RFB_AD_spi_sdio, DIR = IO PORT RFB_AD_spi_sclk_pin = RFB_AD_spi_sclk, DIR = O PORT RFB_AD_reset_n_pin = RFB_AD_reset_n, DIR = O ...

Refer to the [//svn/WARP/PlatformSupport/CustomPeripherals/pcores/w3_ad_controller_v3_00_b/doc/html/api/index.html w3_ad_controller driver documentation] for more details. All driver functions require the base memory address of the w3_iic_eeprom pcore. This address is set in your XPS project. The EDK tools copy this address into a macro in the {{{xparameters.h}}} file when you generate a BSP. The auto-generated macro should be named {{{XPAR_W3_AD_CONTROLLER_0_BASEADDR}}} (assuming your pcore instance is named {{{w3_ad_controller_0}}}, as in the example above). {{{ #!C //Define our own macro, in case EDK changes its naming scheme in the future // Assumes pcore instance is named w3_ad_controller_0; confirm in xparameters.h #define AD_BASEADDR XPAR_W3_AD_CONTROLLER_0_BASEADDR }}} == Source == The full hardware and software source code is available in the repository: [source:/PlatformSupport/CustomPeripherals/pcores/w3_ad_controller_v3_00_b].
