Chronicles from our peeps.
I continued working on the task with the SD cards. I first tested out the read and write example code in Microchip’s manual on Implementing File I/O Functions Using Microchip’s Memory Disk Drive File System Library (AN1045). The code can be found on page 10 on the manual. The files that I Read more…
Another week, another intern. I started on 28 June and was told by my supervisor that I’ll be working mainly with Jia Xien in contributing to the hardware and firmware aspects of Aeste’s current project. After going through the basic tutorials on Git and C, I dove right into my task of the week: researching and weighing configuration interfaces for an FPGA. If you’re feeling an onset of TL;DR-itis, feel free to skip to the last paragraph.
My task for this week is to compile the remoteproc framework, and setup its test bench. After analyzing the framework’s source code, I figured that it cannot be compiled as a modulable framework/driver. This means that I’ll have to compile the whole kernel in order to test the framework. To Read more…
Time flies when you’re having fun. Sixth week has come to an end which means I am officially halfway with my internship. As for the SHA1 let pictures speak for themselves. And as a proof the results from wikipedia I also started working on RC4 stream cipher algorithm. It seems Read more…
This week tasks assigned to me is to continue with git study and Java tutorials. Although I have done with the git tutorial the previous week, I somehow use another half day to refresh some memory on it before I proceed to Java tutorials. Overall the Java tutorial covers up Read more…
I came to the office on 25th June, I was introduced by Dr. Shawn around the office and how to login to the computer I will be working on for this week. And after some tutorials by him, I was able to login to the computer and access all the Read more…
My HDMI transmitter is taking way too long to finish with no one to blame but myself. In this post I’ll describe the general structure of my HDMI transmitter. First, at the core lies the encoder. The encoder is the module that encodes the video, audio and control commands into Read more…
Dream big they say! Dare to step out of your comfort zone. These are what I have been repeating to myself weeks before entering Aeste for my 3 months internship. From the moment I had my phone interview, I have the feeling that my coming “journey” is not going to Read more…
This week I finished up the Rx portion of the UART device that follows the RS232 protocol. I was able to implement it onto the Spartan3 board. When I first tested it, I was a little confused because I didnt know that the letters were represented in ASCII code. My Read more…
Another week has passed (fifth) and my work on SHA1 is coming to an end. I’m right now before the testing phase which would be hopefully done by the end of the day. Summing up all my struggles with SHA1 I have to say it was more difficult than I Read more…
