Chronicles from our peeps.
This week has been spent mainly on documentation of the previous work that had been done. Simplify Code Documenting the code is reminding myself on why do I write it in the way at the first place. Some of the code often comes with unused variable and function where they Read more
This week I was assigned for a few tasks. First, I need to study the codebase of the project system to understand how they are related and how they work, especially the simulator part. Honestly, I was having hard time when reading and analyze the codes written by other interns. Read more
This week, I continued with my previous week task, to find the way on how SPI C code actually work with the Verilog module. I stared on the same circuit for hours, but then I still could not find the way to integrate them together. And finally I decide to Read more
This is my first week as an intern in Aeste. Currently I am the only intern here along with two part-timers (who are also ex-interns for Aeste). During my first day, I got scolded for not completing the pre-materials. As a result, I was given a week to finish studying Read more
This week, I have been working on the GPIO address and the C++ code. Previously, an assumption that had been made for the address of the GPIO registers, which are the control register and data register. However, these assumption can actually be verified through the circuitry of the core itself. Read more
This week I fix my ADC driver, which I done it incorrectly previously. PIC32MZ come with 2 different Family namely the ‘EC’ family and ‘EF ‘ family. The main difference for both of them would be ‘EC’ only capable of 10bit ADC conversion while ‘EF’ can up to 12bit ADC. For my Read more
This week continues with the issue that I had opened previously, which is on the issue that some file is not updated before the synthesis starts. This was a mistake made by the previous intern, that the ramSize (BRAM size) that is needed for synthesis is never been specified correctly Read more
I finally got an improved version of code completion working. I am glad that there is a working example, which i referred my work on. It was a frustrating process because there is no explanation on what is actually going on. I spent a great deal of time understanding the Read more
This week I continue doing emulating ADC based on the proper protocol of SPI ADC from Microchip – MCP3204/3208 From the document table 5-1: state that to initiate a ADC read for specific channel, Master SPI will first send 4bit of ‘Control Bit Selection’ to read the data of the particular Read more
This week the task is very time consuming, because I spent most of the time debugging and reading the logs in the terminal. As I got to know from my colleague Jeunn Hao, that the simulation still does not work 100% of the time. I decided to read the code Read more
