High performance pulse and frequency distribution amplifier for time and frequency metrology. The pulse distribution board is an 1:8-channel (1 Hz and up) logic-level distribution amplifier, while the frequency distribution board is an 1:8-channel sine-wave (1-30 MHz) distribution amplifier. Two 1:8 boards fit side-by-sides in a 1U 19" rack enclosure, with either BNC or SMA connectors.

A cute-wr is a compact WR-node implementation with minimum components required. The initial design is derived from SPEC, but would work in an opposite manner as a FMC wr-nic, providing 2 DIO channels, external CLK input, EEPROM, JTAG, RS232, and expandable IOs through FMC connector. The gateware and software of cute-wr would also keep maximum compatibility with SPEC. Project is obsolete. See cute-wr-dp for a similar board.

Libre-FDATool is a Python package aimed at helping in the analysis and design of HDL filters from high-level specifications. This Free/Libre Open Source software supports both VHDL and Verilog code generation and relies on a collection of Free scientific and EDA tools for providing advanced features -- simulation, graphics, debugging, etc.

In order to overcome the problems often related with deploying open design toolchains from the ground up across different host environments, Libre-FDATool and the associated third-party tools are alternatively distributed in a customized GNU/Linux virtual machine image. This virtualized solution is ready to use right out of the box and can be easily deployed by only using free software in any mainstream Operating System (GNU/Linux, Windows, OS-X, Solaris).

BabyWR is a general purpose small pluggable WR node in a M.2 form-factor. More info at the Wiki page

A White Rabbit compliant Network Interface Card (NIC) based on the SPEC and the DIO FMC. This project hosts the HDL and associated software to configure the SPEC so it behaves as a NIC under the Linux OS.

This project guides new users to start in the White Rabbit “World” with simple experiments. The starting kit uses two SPEC + FMC-DIO cards. Each node allows basic operations such as input timestamping or programmable output pulse generation. Additionally, specific software and gateware layers allow to use it as a standard network interface card implementing the White Rabbit technology functionalities.

A software suite written in Python to help with production tests of PCBs. AKA PTS.

%(red)This pts-base project is used to re-organise the current pts project In the future this project will replace the existing pts project.

Tool for generating multi-purpose makefiles for FPGA projects.

Main features:

makefile generation for: fetching modules from repositories simulating HDL projects synthesizing HDL projects synthesizing projects remotely (keeping your local resources free) generating multi-vendor project files (no clicking in the IDE!) many other things without involving make and makefiles

Hdlmake supports modularity, scalability, revision control systems. Hdlmake can be run on any Linux or Windows machine with any HDL More info at the Wiki page

This library provides a generic API for ADC devices, so that applications can use this API to access any of the supported ADC boards. Currently the library supports the following boards:

fmc-adc-100m14b14cha

For testing and debugging purpose it supports also a couple of virtual boards that you can use to start the development of your application.

A level conversion board between TTL and 24V blocking levels in VME64x form factor. The project uses a rear transition module for connectivity and a front module with the active conversion and diagnostics electronics. More info at the Wiki page

A VME rear transition module providing fibre-optic and electrical (RS485) inputs and outputs. Uses the CONV-TTL-RS485 as front-module. More info at the Wiki page

Collection of WRTD reference designs provided by (and used at) CERN

The TimIQ system is an IQ modulator allowing to phase shift a radio frequency clock with a resolution of 40 fs and an accuracy of 8 ps. Software.
