Development of software for the White Rabbit switch, and in particular the embedded Linux system running in the ARM9 processor. More info at the Wiki page

White Rabbit PTP Core software for LatticeMico32. It consists of a software wrapper for running a PTP daemon without an operating system and device drivers for WRPC HDL internals.

A collection of platform-independent cores such as memories, synchronizer circuits and Wishbone cores.

A Precise Time Protocol (PTP, IEEE 1588) software stack whose single source code can be compiled for many architectures (POSIX systems, WR switch, WR node, ...) and which is easily extensible.

Production and functional tests for FMC TDC 1ns 5cha.

A USB controlled switch box with 1 to 4 switching. Can send out a reference voltage. Multiple configurations possible. Used for the calibration of ADC, TDC and Fine delay mezzanines. More info at the Wiki page

The VFC is a VME carrier for two VITA 57 (FMC) mezzanines. For more details please refer to the wiki pages. Obsolete project. Replaced by VFC-HD.

A fine delay generator in FMC format with 1 input and 4 outputs. The resolution is 1 ns. Commercially available. More info at the Wiki page

Etherbone is an FPGA-core that connects Ethernet to internal on-chip wishbone buses permitting any core to talk to any other across Ethernet.

This project defines data structures, to be embedded in the FPGA memory address space, to enumerate the devices that have been synthetized in the current design. The same structure is also used as a simple flash file system. AKA Self-Describing Bus (SDB) Specification for Logic Cores. The layout is simple enough to be parsed both by the host and by the internal soft-core, if any.

The documentation is public, and related code is GNU GPL licensed.

Software support for the SPEC board, including kernel and user-space Linux code. The package also include the fmc-bus driver, which is expected to be used by other carriers as well.

A software framework for Linux device drivers aimed at supporting controls and data acquisition hardware. ZIO supports sub-nanosecond timestamps, block-oriented input and output and transport of meta-data with the data samples. Users can change the buffer type and trigger type associated with a device at run time, and all of devices, triggers and buffers are easily implemented as add-on modules.

The PF_ZIO implementation, currently in beta status, implements a network interface to the ZIO transport, which allows each I/O channel to generate or receive network frames. Applications see the network of devices and can talk with several of them from the same socket. We support SOCK_STREAM, SOCK_DGRAM and SOCK_RAW.
