This repository contains the FPGA gateware to readout the ASTRA microstrip detector. It is based on the Terasic DE10-Standard board, which embeds an Intel Cyclone V SoC (FPGA+HPS). This should limit the use with Intel FPGA only for specific basic elements, e.g. FIFOs.
- multiADC_interface.vhd: interface to the ADCs. Samples the incoming signals in a 16-bit shift-register.
- PRG_driver.vhd: driver of the PRG interface
In the folder basic_functions there are some basic tools (counters, shift-registers, ...) that are used in the other modules.
The gateware is organized in packages to group parameters, types declarations, and components declarations. In particular, there are two packages:
- ASTRApackage.vhd: Main package.
- basic_functions/basic_package.vhd: Package containing basic functions and tools.
