- Still needs a replacement for Vivado since the software is not supported by MAC OS
Weekly Update 01/27/20
- Dual-booted Linux Ubuntu with MacOSX on Mac
- Created an alternative website without Google Sites
Weekly Update 02/03/20
- Installed Vivado on Ubuntu OS
- Installed Cable Drivers and moved Board files into the designated folders
Weekly Update 02/10/20
- Continued to work on alternative website:
- Added "Github", "Resume" and "CPE-487-A log" sub-sections
- Starting Lab 1
Weekly Update 02/17/20
- Completed Lab 1 on Dual-booted Mac Pro
- Continued to work on alternative website:
- Added Experiences section with hover features, need further elaboration on each experience tho
Weekly Update 02/24/20
- Completed lab 2 on Dual-booted Mac Pro
- Continued to work on alternative website:
- Install NetBean on Mac, and transferred the project from Sublime Text to NetBean
Weekly Update 03/02/20
- No Class
Weekly Update 03/09/20
- Classes transferred online to zoom.
Weekly Update 03/16/20
- Spring Break
Weekly Update 03/23/20
- Going over peer websites
- Starting Lab3 without a FPGA Board on Ubuntu
Weekly Update 03/30/20
- Going over peer websites
- Made Labs Page on my own website
- Continued to work on Lab3 and started to work on Lab4
- Brainstorming for project ideas
- Trying to find some inspiration on
Weekly Update 04/06/2020
- Import the lab codes to my GitHub
- Updated the Resume tab
- Hide the Biography tab on the website
Weekly Update 04/13/2020
- Learned from EE-471, Micro-Cap for Windows and Kicad for Mac, both are circuit simulation softwares, can simulate FPGA Xilinix Boards working in a real circuit
- Potentially useful for a more holistic understanding of FPGA
- Continue working on Lab 3
- Finished Lab3 without a FPGA board
- Start Working on Lab4
- Added and Updated Project Tab
- Updated Lab Tab
Weekly Update 04/20/2020
- Finished Lab 4 and Lab 5
- Researched project ideas and decided to work on interface a mouse with a FPGA board
- Updated Lab and Project Tab
Weekly Update 04/27/2020
- Found a real useful video for Mac Users who want to install Vivado suite:
- Dual Boot Ubuntu on Mac:
- Updated Project tab with latest idea and theoretical function of the interfaced mouse.
- Continue to work on Lab 6.
- Completed Lab 6 without the board.
Weekly Update 05/04/2020:
- Completed theoretical workflow section of the project.
- Working on the VHDL and constraint files of the mouse.
- Updated project tab with the VHDL code written so far.
- Currently working on the pin constraint file that goes along with the VHDL code
- The last step would be try to put the files in vivado and eventually generate bitstream successfully.
Weekly Update 05/11/2020:
- Completed the pin constraint file and the VHDL code.
- The VHDL file and the Pin constraint file are ready to be put into vivado design suite.
- Updated Project tab with the complete pin constraint file and a conclusion.
- The Synthesis of the project needs to be completed with the correction of many syntaxctical errors because there is no VHDL code IDE out there readily available.
