SMT784 User Manual

In this instance, the first

writeword

places the ADC FIFO’s in reset and configures

the

0x1C

register to return register contents information to the Host when a

readword

is performed. The looped

readword

command empties samples remaining in the

FIFO, and the final

writeword

configures the SMT784 to send samples from channels

A and B in straight binary format to the Host.

Viewing the Samples

By using the provided MATLAB script “ANALYSIS.m”, the samples stored on the text
files may be viewed. The following is a zoomed in view of a test run using channels C
and D with a 2MHz analogue signal sampled at 33Mhz and a 4096-point FFT.

Uploading Firmware to Flash

A good guide for how Sundance firmware is typically modelled can be found in the
SMT6500 .chm help files.

The firmware provided may be updated from time to time or can be modified as
desired to implement different functionality into the FPGA. For example, data flow
