That's OK, at the moment I'm just trying to make sure the hardware works OK for smart serial and maybe get you a little insight of the issue when you get around to looking at it. From what I gather ClockLowTag is what should be specified in the pinfile and ClockMed is I guess used internally to determine SS baud rate. Seems that somewhere in the firmware SS is not "connected", as in it should print "SmartSerial version 43" when instantiated rather that version 0 as does when I build with it. That's just the way I understand it so take it with a grain of salt. and you do know that mksocfpga only has an accelerated frame buffer and > still no real unlicenced GPU. > Yeah I know, I'm not trying to run 3D acceleration or anything, it's just since the FB is fixed the monitor must either display 1024x768 natively or scale it. Alot of smaller or obscure monitors don't seem to negotiate resolutions well or at all so the server side must do it, in this case it can't so I suppose the firmware needs to be built for whatever resolution is needed. If you can point me in the right direction I can try to build it myself......In the meantime I scooped up an older 4:3 LCD so I don't have to drag a monitor I use over to my mill when I need to try something. I had some time so I made up a standalone test GUI. I did sort out the ADC conversion stuff in hardware and HAL. Resistor dividers actually do work well, I initially didn't use correct values. I used the method I mentioned previously to scrub the 32bit integer and scale it to a useable voltage with hal components. It actually works very well this way but has a bit of noise. I gave a friend of mine some guidance on writing a single HAL component that can handle the conversion as well as digitally filter the output. I'll see how well that works before I go back and add more passives to try to filter the noise.
