I upgraded my remote boot server to a new machine running ubuntu 20.04, and
although I tried to set everything up the same for remote booting the

Hi Tom,
What digitizer are these using? We have had issues with the KATADC on
ROACH2, which turns out to need some register initializations in order to
function properly, and the symptom is a bad est_brd_clk() result.

Hi Yan,
This sounds like the problem we had until Matt Dexter and Dave MacMahon
determined that some KatADC registers need to be set for correct ADC
operation. Below is the python code we use to set them:

Dear Jonathan (and the rest of the CASPER list, in case anyone has

Hi Richard,
I will let someone else say how the PFB block is actually implemented, but
the correct method is as you have described, so that each sample in a 4-tap

indeed the whole point of the PFB is to give the effect of a
Hi Juan Camilo,
This is certainly doable with ROACH hardware. Before embarking on it,
though, you should do some tests of the radio-frequency interference (RFI)
environment there. Your target frequency range is one of the toughest in
terms of RFI, so you may be frustrated in your goal even if
Hi All,
We have 8 identical (I hope) ROACH-2 boards. We have been using 4 of them

is different. If I run the katcp routine to get the sensor list
Hi All,
We are bringing multiple ROACH2 boards online, each equipped with two
KatADC boards. To my surprise, 3 of our 8 ROACH2s show a 401 MHz FPGA
clock rate, as returned from the Python KATCP est_brd_clk() function, when
supplying an 800 MHz clock to the ADCs. The others show the correct
Hi All,
Could someone summarize this discussion for me re: the case I am interested
in, which is as follows? I have a need for a dual-pol spectrometer
covering an RF of at least 1-18 GHz (0.5-18 GHz is better). From the
discussion, it sounds like one option is to use the 1x5GSPs board at 1:1
board to sample a pair of ADC's at 5 Gsps,
and one of the DiBAS modes does stokes spectroscopy.
and Jack Hickish's AMI correlator also samples a
pair of 5 Gsps ADC's using Roach2.
best wishes,

Sorry for all of the questions, but now when I try to program the FPGA with
