In vivados xdc-files, is it possible to do calculations? So e.g. instead of providing a clock period I could provide the frequency and calculate the period from it?

@gKarthikSai hi , If Vivado Design Suite isn't available for your Mac, and you don't have the storage for it anyway, you're doing the right thing by using EDA Playground online. Keep using it for your design needs

Navadeep•3/20/24, 7:10 AM

yes, this is something very possible. In your example, you can be -divide_by like this

Manuel•3/20/24, 7:16 AM

Oh, no I don't want to derive a clock from another, but do actual calculations where the result can be stored to a variable. Using this for a clock was just an example.

Navadeep•3/20/24, 7:26 AM

Okay, I don't see a way to do math operations like that and variable assignments within .xdc

Hello everyone since this week's Office Hours topic is "When to Use an OS/RTOS" i want to suggest a poll
Which RTOS do you primarily use for embedded systems development?
A) FreeRTOS
B) MicroC/OS
C) Zephyr
D) Xenomai
E) Proprietary RTOS (Please specify )

, Please I really need to know what happens if there's no idle task in an RTOS? Does the system automatically generate one? And besides consuming CPU time, what other roles do idle tasks play?

How doing a byte swap for 32 bit(or whatever) data as you store it in the memory... you can implement this logic in FPGA side as well if that's where you are.

i have added this block before thr t_axis_data of the dma what do you think: module EndianSwap(
input [31:0] InputData,
output reg [31:0] OutputData
);

always @ (InputData)
begin
OutputData[31:24] = InputData[7:0];
OutputData[23:16] = InputData[15:8];
OutputData[15:8] = InputData[23:16];
OutputData[7:0] = InputData[31:24];
end

AJAY KUMAR V•3/21/24, 1:52 AM

Sorry for the late reply @Phoenix
The internship was related to TI's TIVA and SimpleLink based low speed driver integration and product testing. I'm interested in IoT as well.
The startup is working on smart and handheld medical equipment development and gives service to redesign of system with new features as per requirement.
Thank you for asking
