[free-electronic-lab] asimut: Getting a ?u in the output patternwith structural simulation

Ashwith Rego — 2012-05-20T09:29:19

Hi,

I have the following code for an inverter:

============================
--inverter (NOT) gate
entity invg is port
(
  a   : in  bit;
  x   : out bit;
  vdd : in bit;
  vss : in bit
);
end invg;

architecture vbe of invg is begin
  x <= not (a);
end vbe;
============================

I saved this in invg.vbe Next I ran the following commands:
  boom -l 3 -d invg
  boog invg_o invg -x 1 -m 2

This resulted in the file invg.vst which contains the following:

============================
entity invg is
   port (
      a   : in      bit;
      x   : out     bit;
      vdd : in      bit;
      vss : in      bit
 );
end invg;

architecture structural of invg is
Component inv_x2
   port (
      i   : in      bit;
      nq  : out     bit;
      vdd : in      bit;
      vss : in      bit
 );
end component;


begin

x_ins : inv_x2
   port map (
      i   => a,
      nq  => x,
      vdd => vdd,
      vss => vss
   );


end structural;
============================

I now created a pattern to drive the input. Howeve

Ashwith Rego — 2012-05-19T17:41:22

Hi,

I was trying a structural simulation using asimut (I've attached the
files in mux.tar). The files andg.vst, org.vst and invg.vst were
generated by boog.I ran the following command:
    asimut mux mux_in mux_out

The output I got is the following:

[free-electronic-lab] gnucap and ngspice usage and feedback

Yusuf Matcheswala — 2012-05-17T21:42:49

If you have used gnucap and/or ngspice, what has been your experience with
the usage of these tools for simulation especially of larger analog blocks
regarding the tool's speed, accuracy, issues with convergence etc? I will
appreciate the valuable feedback form this forum.

Thanks,

[free-electronic-lab] Xilinx System Generator Alternative

Ashwith Rego — 2012-05-13T13:34:07

Hi,

I have two questions.

1. Are there any alternatives to Xilinx's System generator? Possibly
something that converts octave or scilab (preferably xcos) code to
VHDL or Verilog.
2. What sort of support is available for SystemVerilog in FEL?

Thanks

 Gmsh is a 3D finite element grid generator with a build-in CAD engine and
 post-processor. Its design goal is to provide a fast, light and user-
 friendly meshing tool with parametric input and advanced visualization
 capabilities. Gmsh is built around four modules: geometry, mesh, solver
 and post-processing. The specification of any input to these modules is
 done either interactively using the graphical user interface or in ASCII
 text files using Gmsh's own scripting language.

 discretizations on serial and parallel platforms. A major goal of the
 library is to provide support for adaptive mesh refinement (AMR)
 computations in parallel while allowing a research scientist to focus on
 the physics they are modeling.

Hi,

I attended GNUnify 2012 [1] on February 10-11, 2012 at Symbiosis
Institute of Computer Studies and Research [2], Pune, India.

Day I

The first day first session that I attended was on "Build your own
cloud computing infrastructure" [3] by Arun Khan [4]. He addressed the
different concepts and tools available for setting up a private
computing infrastructure. After the first session, I moved to listen
to Saleem Ansari's [5] talk on "Torque Box - Ruby App Server" [6].
TorqueBox is small adaptation layer on top of JBoss's Java application
server. I then attended Srikant Patnaik's [7] talk on "Web based
embedded project design" [8]. He demonstrated a simple example of
using an LED with Arduino and controlling it with a Python CGI
webserver. He also demonstrated the use of Fritzing to build the
demoed circuit. All the tools are available on Fedora:

  $ sudo yum install fritzing arduino

After lunch, I attended the talk on "Btrfs - The next Generation
Filesystem on Linux" by Neependra Khare [9]. He addresse

Yusuf Matcheswala — 2012-02-02T19:00:16

Hi,



Do the layout tools in FEL such as Magic, Electric, Toped etc. use or
provide the facility to create pyCells?



Further, has any one used or knows if pcells can be created using the
pycell studio IDE from Ciranova to create pyCells that can be used in the
above layout tools?



I have seen a utitlity in FEL called skill2py but cannot find any
documentation or data about it?



Thanks

[free-electronic-lab] FEL in Panama

Kiara Navarro — 2012-02-01T06:15:57

Hi everyone:

My name is Kiara Navarro and I'm currently using Fedora Electronic Spin.
Less than a year ago I started in the world of fedora and I could enjoy
this electronic version.
I wanted to write yours because I'll teach a workshop about Fedora
Electronic in Panama and I wish share some material that brings current
Fedora Electronic. This would help me organize the material in a dynamic
way to the public that would be in the workshop.

I searched a lot of information about FEL there is not much in the Spanish
language. However,  initiatives like this in Latin America could help us
better promote spin between the public.

If you have some online conference in which i could see information,
features, activies about FEL would be great, preferably in English.

I'm currently a student of electrical engineering and telecommunications in
the Technological Panama University, and I would like to give more students
the opportunity to know fedora and electronic features offered.

Still, if yours have some kind of
