7 Communication
resources
It is strongly advised to read the
Sundance help file
to understand the principle of the
Sundance communication resources and their connectivity principles.
7.1 Comports
The FPGA module has two comports, numbered 0 and 3. The default firmware only
implements CP3
The addresses of the Comport registers are described in the
SMT6400 help file
.
Control commands from the host are received via comports.
7.2 SHB
The SMT349 has two SHB connectors, both of which are connected to the FPGA to
give 2x 16-bit SDB interfaces. These interfaces operate with a fixed clock rate of
100MHz.
